Everything and more
How do we put into words how grateful we are for all the hard work you put in to make Claudines' wedding day so special. It was everything and more than we could have imagined. We had just the most glorious day. Our guests could not get over the magnificent surroundings, Marble Hall and the Lady Elizabeth Wing. They are still talking about it now. The whole experience is one that people will never forget, it was absolutely fantastic. The day would not have happened without the hard work of your team and we cannot express enough the gratitude. You said you would give Claudine a day to remember and you did. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Thank you for everything.
Dear Miranda, We just wanted to say a big thank you for all the help and guidance you gave us in preparing for our amazing wedding at Holkham Hall. As you know you have a stunning venue, which all our guests appreciated and got to experience a bit of Norfolk! I am sure that next year you are going to be very busy with weddings… however we are pleased to say we got to experience the LEW in its first few months. Thank you for everything.

Wow, what can we say!!
You can probably tell from our beaming faces but we just wanted to thank you for what was an absolutely incredible day! You both have been so fantastic, from the moment we met you last July, to yesterday morning clearing up! Your commitment and enthusiasm to helping us have the best day ever did not go unnoticed by us - nor by all of our guests! It was a truly magical day and we can’t stop looking at the photos! (Bearing in mind that these are only the “amateur” photos and we haven’t even seen Kathy’s yet!) You truly have a great thing going on at Holkham, and we are so pleased to be one of the first couples to have used the LEW - I’m sure you expect busy times ahead!! We feel an even stronger connection now to Holkham and can’t wait to spend more and more time there in the near future.

Can’t recommend enough.
We got married at the Temple in 2015. The venue was a dream come true, tucked away in the woods so we were completely private and surrounded by nature. Besides the birth of my son, getting married was the happiest day of my life, and that’s mostly down to such a beautiful venue. I got driven through the park in my vintage VW Camper van and everyone was waving! The staff were really helpful too. If I could, I’d relive that day again and I wouldn’t change a thing! Can’t recommend enough.
