Perfect venue, perfect staff, perfect day!
We hosted our wedding ceremony and reception at KWH over the last weekend of March, and we couldn't have been happier! I would recommend this venue to anyone who wants a wedding in which they can add their own personal touches, and want flexibility and excellent value for money! As we are quite crafty (and thrifty) we wanted to do a lot of things ourselves, such as our own decorations and a dessert table, and every request we asked was fulfilled with minimal fuss or fear or an 'extra cost'. Whilst other venues seemed to add on a charge for anything other than what was on their roster, KWH were enthusiastic and willing to make our vision a reality! Both Sara and Norman were present, without being 'too present', and were professional and friendly. In the weeks leading up to the big day, we felt that they had everything under control, and I happily let Sara take the reins so I could relax and enjoy myself on the day! Front of house staff were professional and attentive, food was amazing (the leek and feta macaroni from the Hot Fork buffet was so so so good!), and kitchen were very helpful when it came to preparing the desserts and cheese cake we bought with us. All in all, perfect venue, perfect staff, perfect day. Would do it all again in an instant and wouldn't change a thing!

Great venue, great people, perfect day!
We (or I, the bride!) chose KWH straight away, I didn't bother looking at other venues! From our initial meeting we felt like KWH would be on our wavelength; we wanted a wedding where we could add our own mark, and KWH let us do just that! With other venues, we found any requests (such as having a dessert table!) would have a hefty price tag and a bunch of T&Cs attached. With KWH, we felt they never wanted to trip us up and take our money, they genuinely just wanted us to have a good time! The fact that Norman, the owner of this fantastic building, was pottering around and making us coffees when we met with Sara, the planner, really reflected on the attitude of this venue. The food was divine, the staff were friendly and observant, and Sara was helpful and knowledgable. She really knew her stuff, kept on top of everything, and kept me calm on the big day! I would recommend this venue to anyone who wants a wedding they can put their own stamp on, in a grand setting but for fantastic value for money! Can I do it all again please!!!

Unbelievable venue. Cannot recommend enough!
I don't there are the right words to describe how awesome this venue actually is. From the moment we visited the venue the team at Kingsweston could not do enough to make our wedding day perfect. They made planning and organising everything easy and painless. The venue is truly beautiful and needed very little doing to make it special. On the day Norman and Sarah were on hand all the time. They just had everything in hand. We just felt they just got us. I wasn't worried and felt really calm. They looked after us impeccably. Like I said there are not enough amazing words to describe how incredible this venue is. The house itself, the staff, the food and the wedding team. If you decide to go to kingsweston and book your wedding there you won't look back. We had a perfect day!

An excellent day, well run
We were married at Kings Weston House in March 2019. We chose KWH for a number of reasons, mainly for location and sentimental value. We were pleasantly surprised that KWH turned out to be as perfect as we imagined, and for a very reasonable price. In the lead up to the day we had a couple of long meetings with Norman, Sara and Naomi who run the events. They were well organised, and went out of their way to accommodate our requests. In the month beforehand they were quick to respond to enquiries, and constructively worked out the inevitable issues. We were grateful to have a team who we trusted. Kings Weston House itself is a beautiful venue. We had 50 guests, and found we had plenty of space to be comfortable, while rotating through different rooms for different parts of the day without being so big as to feel overwhelming or cold. The bistro is a fantastic place to put on a disco :). The day itself went smoothly. Everything happened when planned, the food was good, and Sara & Norman took excellent care of us. We very much appreciate their efforts - it was an fantastic day, and very well run.
