Our Wedding Day was beautiful
Our wedding day was beautiful and it was managed perfectly by Inga, everything ran smoothly, the food was delicious and we all had a wonderful day & lucky enough had the most perfect weather in the beautiful grounds which we had many compliments on. We were very pleased that it was Inga running our day and we can’t thank her enough for everything she did for us. The Compass group team were also brilliant at helping us re-schedule our wedding date multiple times due to covid cancellations and offered to reserve a number of future dates for us until the restrictions eased.

Frequently Asked Questions
(10)

Describe the best wedding that happened at Beaulieu - National Motor Museum ?

During the pandemic we created two weddings out of one wedding so that the couple could have two sets of separate guests attend different parts of their stunning wedding day. All of their family and friends got to share in their joy and it made the day even more special despite the restrictions.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Create your day about yourselves, your passions and what you as a couple want; it's your wedding day and your journey as a couple and your wedding should reflect that.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

It has to be the most beautiful and personal lavender scented hearts, made by the bride and embroidered with guests names to hang on the back of each chair as a place name. They were very special and the space smelt incredible.
