April Review of the Month

“From our very first interaction with the team on our first viewing, from the booking process through to the planning of our big day, it was all fantastic.

We were very lucky to work with Gema as our main wedding planner, totally unflappable, calm, organised, all over the detail.

Our wedding day in the stunning venue, bathed in spring sunshine, was delivered flawlessly. We cannot think of one thing we would want differently. Food, service, team, drinks, venue – all 10/10.

Every single aspect of our day was flawless – and I hope you all know how much we appreciate it. The training you must surely provide for all the team must be done to such a high standard.

Thanks so much Farnham Castle, to Gema and indeed the whole amazing team we interacted with. You literally gave us the best day of our lives.

We would like to say a MASSIVE thank you to everyone involved in making our wedding the magical, FUN day that it was, especially Laura and Anna who were very lovely and helpful – on the morning they were amazing and couldn’t have done more for us.
All of your staff are extremely warm in their approach which was really important to us.  We are so happy with our choice of venue – Farnham Castle is truly beautiful and it was the best wedding we have ever been to (of course)!

It’s a cliche, but we really couldn’t have asked for anything more. The catering was wonderful, the staff really friendly and, with the weather in our favour, the whole thing felt pretty close to perfect.
In the run-up you were a great help in helping us understand what our options were. You also gave us the space to make those choices for ourselves; we never felt pushed into a decision.”

Everybody commented on how seamlessly the day went, what a fantastic venue Farnham Castle is and how delicious the food was.
The day was so well organised and all your team were polite, friendly and conscientious.

December Review of the Month

“Thank you to you and your team for making our day so very special. We have been trying to take it all in and have just been blown away by the whole weekend. We cannot fault any aspect of the day – it all ran so perfectly and every detail covered. The venue, the food , the service and the care shown by all the staff was out of this world. It was truly a perfect day – and the guests have all fed back how much they enjoyed it.”

“Farnham Castle itself is a spectacular venue and everything about the day was perfect. Your staff were efficient, helpful and pleasant throughout, nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent. I can’t remember ever attending a wedding where the food was so well done. Well done to everyone involved, the day could not have been better and many memories were made.”
Parents of the Groom | 28th October, 2022

“We have been in such a wedding bubble and have been trying to draft this email over the last week – but it is finally ready to send. James and I got married at Farnham Castle on Thursday 27th October 2022 and we wanted to send an email to say just how perfect everyone working at the castle made our day……..
Even before we had booked the venue, we were so impressed by how much care was shown by the staff each time we visited………. Heather, our wedding coordinator……. has always been on hand to answer any questions we have, no matter how silly they may have been. Our wedding day wouldn’t have been as perfect and run as smoothly as it did if it wasn’t for Heather and the team……..
We would finally like to thank the head waiter for helping to make our wedding so perfect.
Throughout the day, he was incredibly polite and had such a calm aura. I am not entirely sure how it’s possible to remain so calm when you’re in charge of food being served – but he did it. Everyone at the wedding was so amazed by the military precision of the food being served, ………. I remember attending a wedding at a five-star hotel in London where we definitely didn’t receive anywhere near the quality of service that we received at Farnham Castle……….
We would like to thank are the chefs and those who were working behind the bar / served drinks in the Great Hall. Every single person who attended our wedding commented on just how much they enjoyed the food. Again, it was unlike any food we have ever had at a wedding and was truly the best we have ever tasted. Even two weeks later, people are still talking about how incredible the food was, and how beautiful the venue is…..
Any couple who has this team of people looking after them on their wedding day should consider themselves very lucky.”
Ishita & James | 27th October, 2022

“We wanted to take the chance to thank you for everything you did to make our day as wonderful as it was. We’re sad that it’s over and would relive that day over and over again if we could. We also wanted to specifically shout out to the Bar Manager the Head Waiter for being so so so super helpful during the day.
Your team is literally the best bunch of people.”
Jaime & Kieran | 25th October, 2022

“Thank you so much or you all your hard work and support to make our wedding day amazing. We had the best day and felt so well looked after. Thank you!”

We are beyond grateful and it’s hard to put into words how happy we were with the day, Farnham Castle, the staff, service, food and you. Since Thursday Tom and I have said on numerous occasions that there isn’t a single thing we would change about how the day ran, and that we would recommend Farnham Castle and you, Heather, to anyone!  So many of our guests said Farnham Castle is one of the best wedding venues they have been to, and that the food was incredible. I also couldn’t believe when a member of staff on the night managed to superglue my wedding shoes back together in the space of about 5 minutes!”

The wider team at Farnham castle were also excellent, I had many guests complementing how friendly and helpful everyone was onsite. The standard of dinner service was also excellent, and we would like to pass on our thanks to the chefs as the food was incredible. It was especially great to have a guaranteed nut free event as this helped my friends with severe nut allergies relax.”

“This e-mail is really just to say a massive thank you to Heather and all of the staff at Farnham Castle. The day itself can be a whirlwind (it still feels that way!) but it really was absolutely perfect and we couldn’t have asked for anything better. All the guests complimented the staff, they thought the table servers were brilliant and couldn’t fault them whatsoever. Everything was just absolutely flawless, thank you so much Heather for always being on hand for us and organising everything to a tee. There was no issue too difficult, on the day you were a calming but firm influence which was exactly what we needed. Everyone was shocked at how perfectly to time the day went, and everyone just had the best night ever. It was easily the best night of our lives and we will never forget it, and will definitely be coming back to Farnham Castle if you do your Valentines Night event next year! It was the most magical day.”
