A fantastic venue
Best wedding venue around! My wife and I had our wedding here a couple of weeks ago. We had an intimate ceremony with close family in the Italian gardens. For two brides, it worked out perfect, we had a set of steps each to walk down and met at the bottom. The gardens are breathtaking, It worked so well. We then had live music in the barn for all our guest (around 80 people) All our guest said how stunning the venue. Nigel was great throughout from start to finish he kept in contact and nothing was too much trouble. The day ran smoothly thanks to Nigel. Highly recommend this place

Wedding Venue
We recently had our wedding ceremony in the beautiful gardens of Tapeley Park. We had great communication from Nigel before the day, and Nigel made sure everything went smoothly on the day for us with no hiccups, nothing was too much trouble. We can’t recommend Tapeley Park gardens, and Nigel enough as a Wedding Ceremony choice. Thank you
