Company’s
Heritage
We established Country House Weddings over 35 years ago, and the company is still owned and run by the same family today.
Our first venue, Leez Priory in Essex, became the first country house to be licensed for civil ceremonies in 1992. This unrivalled experience and expertise mean that your special day is in the safest hands.
Don’t Just Take Our Word for It…
Here are just a few of the kind words our happy couples have said about their Country House Wedding.
I couldn’t recommend the venue enough…
Georgia & Jack 25th February, 2025 at Leez PrioryLeez Priory were so supportive throughout the wedding planning and our wedding planner, Sophie, on the day knew when she needed to be strict with guests or suppliers, which was needed! Sophie was always on hand throughout the day and was always by my side when I needed to ask a question.
If I could do it all over again, we would 100% go back to Leez Priory, and we can’t wait to go back and visit one day soon.
I couldn’t recommend the venue enough and if you’re thinking about booking a viewing, do it! You won’t regret it.
From the moment we booked, the team have been fabulous!
Christopher & Pete 31st May, 2024 at Clearwell CastleWe could not have wished for a more picturesque venue with such catering staff. Any requests we had were sorted and we knew that someone was always a phone call or email away. We were supported throughout the experience which made it more effortless for us as a couple planning the biggest day of our lives. We were made to feel that no question was a stupid question even if we thought it might be.
Overall, the Clearwell Castle staff are amazing, from the wedding managers to the bar staff and cleaners! Thank you so much for making our day the most special it could be. Our guests are still talking about it now all these months on.
A Magical Day!
Chanel & Charlie 26th February, 2025 at Gosfield HallFirstly… We would like to say our day could not have gone any better!
We had viewed over 10 other venues, and we chose Gosfield Hall and so grateful we did. The staff were so honest, helpful, calm, encouraging and genuinely interested in us and our special day. Plus, there is so much included in terms of decor (flowers throughout) stunning grounds which you do not have to spend loads of extra money on to make the place look pretty.
Overall, food was fantastic, great service, well-kept grounds, amazing staff, and everything in between.
Everything ran smoothly and perfectly
Melis & Adam 12th May, 2024 at Bourton HallDonna, our Personal Wedding Manager helped us have the most incredible day of our lives. Everything ran smoothly and perfectly, there was nothing to fault. We did not even need to set anything up ourselves on the actual morning of the wedding. Donna was so good at keeping us updated and was always at the end of the phone if I needed to speak to her, it just made the process stress free.
We will definitely be coming back to celebrate our first anniversary at a dinner date event. We would like to thank everyone at Bourton Hall.
