So many beautiful weddings, I am not sure I could pick just one!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Relax and try to enjoy the planning!
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
Every wedding has so many personal touches I'm not sure I could choose just one!
Describe The Ferry House in 5 adjectives
Relaxed, Beautiful, Homely, Unique, Romantic
Where’s the best photo spot at The Ferry House ?
Oooo this is a hard one! We have quite a few different areas for photos. Personally I have two favorite 'must-have' photo spots and that is by the water and in our secret orchard. Photos by the water are always beautiful and always different depending on weather, timing & tide. We had the most amazing shot of a couple by the estuary between the sunset and a rainbow. LOVE! The Secret Orchard is also a must! We leave the grass and flowers wild and there are always some amazing shots in there.
Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at The Ferry House ?
Did we ever say that Jude Law stayed here not long ago whilst filming?!
What’s your favourite canapé?
Oooo has to be the mini burgers with beef from our family farm.
What’s your favourite midnight treat?
It has to be our Signature wedding cake! Chocolate brownie wrapped in malted white chocolate cheesecake...
What is The Ferry House most unique feature?
Has to be our food ethos. We have an extensive kitchen garden where we grow 60% of the fresh produce on our wedding menu. Our beef is all reared on the neighbouring nature reserve and game is all shot on the Harty Estate. We even serve gin that is made from the grain from our farm! We also offer varied accommodation options for our couples. Included in each full day package are our 5 waterside rooms, including our Honeymoon Suite. From there is the option to add our 6 Coach House rooms, also on site. Just up the road we also have Mocketts Farm, home to 5 converted barns and farm buildings sleeping 53+ guests. Meaning we can accommodate 70+ of your guests at our venue, allowing you to continue the celebrations to the following morning over breakfast.
What part of your business are you most proud of?
The part of the business we are the proudest of has to be our team! We genuinely are a Ferry House family and without everyone in every department being passionate about the part they play, we would not be able to pull off the amazing weddings that we do. Plus we have a great sense of humour...
