Kind words from our wonderful wedding couples.
Saturday 27th November 2021 “Our wedding at Glen Lodge was nothing short of perfect. The venue itself has been so tastefully built and decorated and allows you to imprint your personality on to it whilst also being practical for you and all of your guests. We were so appreciative of the privacy the venue afforded us to celebrate with our closest friends and family. My family booked up the on-site accommodation which was both reasonably priced and luxuriously decorated, we loved the personal touches like special hooks for a wedding dress and the well-appointed bathrooms and kitchen. We were incredibly impressed by the professionalism, organisation and friendly event coordination from Beckiee & Keeleigh from start to finish. Much like many other couples we were impacted by COVID-19 and rescheduling the wedding to a new date took one phone-call, Beckiee liaised with all our vendors which took an amazing amount of pressure off of us as the couple and gave us the freedom to relax and really enjoy our day. Nothing we asked for was ever too tall an order, we even have specific dietary requirements that were met with ease and the food was phenomenal! Say goodbye to dated meals as Glen Lodge put together a modern and tasteful menu for us. I truly felt I could approach Beckiee at any time about anything. On the day the venue looked better than I had envisioned and any last minute details were dealt with so efficiently I even managed to have a lie-in on my wedding day! I really feel the team always goes the extra mile and no couple will be disappointed. All of our friends & family keep bringing up the whole day and commenting on how wonderful of a time they had, which in our opinion is testament to the venue and event team."

Saturday 23rd October 2021 “We came to visit Glen Lodge in October 2019 for our first wedding Venue viewing. This was the first venue we looked at, and after viewing the grounds and meeting Beckiee, we knew straight away this was the perfect place for us!. We originally booked for May 2020, but unfortunately was cancelled due to covid. We can't thank Beckiee enough for re-arranging this for us multiple times!, finally having our big day on 23/10/2021. Everything we requested was never enough trouble, and always sorted with no fuss at all, Beckiee was amazing all the way through. On the day itself, we can truly say this was everything we expected and a million times more. We stayed in the Cottages including the Bridal Suite on the Friday and Saturday which were absolutely beautiful. The whole day went so smoothly from the ceremony, wedding breakfast and to the evening. We had the 3 Course Carvery which was amazing, and every guest we had complimented on the quality of the food. Beckiee, Keeleigh and all the bar staff worked tirelessly throughout the whole day making sure everybody was well taken care of, and for that we will always be grateful. We would love to recommend Glen Lodge to anyone thinking of getting married, it is an amazing venue with amazing staff! Thank you so much for making our day so special.”

We couldn’t imagine finding a place any better and we are so glad we chose to get married at Glen Lodge!”

Friday 10th September 2021 “Firstly thank you so much to all of the staff at Glen Lodge, in particular Beckiee. From our first visit to Glen Lodge, Beckie was very welcoming and almost instantly we realised this venue was at the top of our list. The most positive things to hear from your prospective wedding coordinator are the words 'yes we can' and 'it's your day, we can do anything the way you wish', and these are words Beckie used throughout our first visit and it definitely proved to be true. This level of customer service is really something that stood out for us, as we didn't receive this at other venues we had viewed and we were starting to wonder if we were going to have to compromise on our ideas, luckily for us, we then visited Glen Lodge. This was especially pleasing to hear as we were booking our venue during Covid-19, which always felt a little uncertain. Beckie always kept us in the loop with updates and was positive throughout the long wait for restrictions to be lifted. Our wedding was in September 2021 when all restrictions has been lifted and it was more than we could have hoped for, the venue was perfect, despite the weather not allowing us to have the veranda ceremony as we had hoped for, the indoor setting for the ceremony was just as beautiful. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed the day, and we can't wait to visit Glen Lodge for further occasions."

Sunday 5th September 2021 “From the very first email, Beckiee was amazing at answering all our questions that we had. When we went to view the venue, we knew straight away that it was the 'one'. The setting is beautiful, and the Barnard Suite is a perfect canvas for the day. Even without any decoration it is a lovely space as it is so bright, has a brick feature wall and beams on the ceiling. The golf course and lower lawn is the perfect backdrop to the terrace where our guests were able to mingle in the sunshine after the ceremony. The gazebo is very pretty, and we were so pleased we could have the ceremony outside, it was also a great spot for photos. We had an amazing day and all our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the afternoon tea we had as our wedding breakfast. Beckiee was amazing at making sure the day went smoothly. We would recommend Glen Lodge to others as the experience was great!”

Saturday 4th September 2021 “Beckiee, you and the team at Glen Lodge have truly been a dream for us during our build-up. Even before COVID we were so impressed and pleased with how open and honest you were with pricing, what packages include and what they don't include, your flexibility and communication. Once COVID hit and the uncertainty crept in you seemed to get even better! We couldn't ask for a better wedding planner and for the venue to allow our special day to go ahead as planned when even after all restrictions were lifted some other venues imposed limited numbers and mandatory masks was such a welcome relief. You truly made our day perfect and we couldn't have wished for better service. All our guests commented on what a beautiful venue you have and we received nothing but good feedback. The food choices, menu tasting day, wedding breakfast and evening BBQ were all perfect too. Thank you you really have made our dream day come true and we will definitely recommend you to any friends and family in future.”

Sunday 15th August 2021 "What a beautiful place to hold our wedding reception From booking, through postponement, to the day, Beckiee and the whole team at Glen Lodge were amazing. Always supportive, helpful and caring. The lead up was fairly stressful but we always felt so cared for and Beckiee’s attention to detail was amazing. On the day the food was unbelievable, all of our guests commented on how good the food was and how attentive the staff were. We had the most magical day and we couldn’t have done it without the team there. We also used the bridal prep room which was lovely to use and got a trip out on a golf buggy to get some lovely photos! Thanks to all at Glen Lodge, a truly wonderful place to have a wedding!"

Saturday 7th August 2021 “We would like to start by saying a huge THANK YOU to all of the wonderful staff at Glen Lodge, who went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was truly amazing - more so than we could have ever imagined. We were certainly apprehensive more than once during the planning process (due to one small factor that we were in the middle of a pandemic!), however the team at Glen Lodge were so reassuring and supported us throughout these tricky times. We would like to give a special thanks to Beckiee who thrives at her job- she is super organised and there was never a problem too big (or an email too long!). As a bride who was worried about not decorating myself, I was taken back to see that all of the decorations I had collected were placed so perfectly and exactly how I had planned. We had so many comments from our guests about how delicious the food was, how beautiful the venue and the surroundings are and how well looked after they all felt. We could write an essay, but the most important thing is that if you're planning to get married, please consider this wonderful venue, you won't be disappointed.”

Friday 6th August 2021 “My husband and I got married at Glen Lodge on 6th August 2021 and have had nothing short of an amazing experience. From the first meeting to the last, Beckiee went above and beyond to make sure that our day ran perfectly and we knew that she truly cared that we had the day of our dreams. No ask was too big or too small and she totally put us at ease. Beckiee knew exactly where the best photo spots were on the golf course and spent time with us, our photographer and videographer there to make sure our pictures and film looked beautiful. We had lots of guests attend our wedding who have allergies, but the food got the most compliments of the day because it was so tasty and absolutely everyone was catered for. It will be difficult to say goodbye to the beautiful Glen Lodge and Beckiee - we’ve grown quite attached but couldn’t have asked or hoped for anything more. Thank you!”

Saturday 31st July 2021 "We got married at Glen Lodge in July this year. Glen Lodge is a wonderful setting with beautiful views across the golf course. Beckiee and the team worked so hard to make our day just right from setting everything up the day before for us, to the main ceremony, throughout the evening and even packed everything up so we didn't have to the next day!!! We couldn't have asked for a more lovely day and the staff go above and beyond what we expected. Thank you!!"

Everything was so perfect and our guests are still telling us now what a great job you did. So thank you so much."

Beckiee our wedding co-ordinator couldn’t have been more helpful, everything we asked for was accommodated and it was our pleasure to have her be a part of our day. We absolutely cannot wait to celebrate our anniversary back at Glen Lodge. Thank you for everything."

Thursday 24th June 2021 "Thank you all so much for making our wedding day so wonderful. We cannot thank you enough for all you did and all the help you gave. From the very first day we had the pleasure of meeting Beckiee to discuss prices and options for our wedding day, and throughout our entire planning experience, you were able to somehow make the process trouble free and allowed us to just relax and simply look forward to the day because we knew every detail would have been taken care of.....and it was, better than we could have ever imagined. Thank you for your professionalism and attention to detail. Words cannot express how grateful we are for such wonderful service. Your amazing work was genuinely valued. Although we have been spreading the word to others about the great service and beautiful facilities..... our guests all raved about the food and facilities and many have expressed how impressed they were with the picturesque views overlooking the golf course from the terrace area. We couldn't have been happier with the way everything turned out. We will continue to have a lifetime of happy memories to cherish because of your time, help and assistance. Lots of love. From the new Mr & Mrs Slade."

Wednesday 4th November 2020 "Glen Lodge was our first Wedding Venue viewing and it quickly became clear it was going to be the one to beat! A beautiful space with equally gorgeous views! Beckiee and the team were so friendly and attentive and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. The planning process was an absolute pleasure, with as much input as we needed from the team, who were always at the end of an email or phone call. In the end, our big day was as perfect as could be and we are forever grateful to everyone involved who made sure it could go ahead under some very exceptional circumstances! Thank you all!!"

Sunday 27th September 2020 "We were so fortunate to have our wedding reception at the beautiful Glen Lodge Bawburgh. We moved our wedding forward 3 weeks when the new restrictions came into place that was going to reduce weddings to 15 people, but with the help of the amazing team at Glen Lodge we were able to have a beautiful intimate reception with 30 of our nearest and dearest. It was a stressful week of rearranging everything, but Glen Lodge were so accommodating with making sure we could have a lovely sit down meal in their gorgeous Barnard Suite. The food provided was delicious, and before we left we were able to have our speeches, cut the cake, and have our first dance together. We were also blessed to have gorgeous photos in their gazebo out on the decking as well. Changing our wedding during covid-19 was something we had never imagined happening when we booked our wedding reception with Glen Lodge 15 months prior, but we are so thankful to Glen Lodge for being able to do everything they could to help us have a beautiful day celebrating. Beckiee was amazing with her support and encouragement, and we are so truly grateful to Glen Lodge for everything they did to help us change the date and still have a wonderful day. We would recommend Glen Lodge to anyone as they gave us such a beautiful day, even with the madness going on in the world."

Saturday 19th October 2019 “Chris and I cannot thank you all enough for our absolutely wonderful wedding. It was everything and more than we ever dreamed it would be, and that was because of all your hard work. You all worked extremely hard in ensuring the build up was stress-free and the day ran smoothly, which it did! Beckiee is a true asset to Glen Lodge. You were so friendly and accommodating from the very beginning and were the reason why we decided to book Glen Lodge as our wedding venue. It was risky to have agreed to a wedding venue that wasn’t even built yet, but we had no reason to doubt Beckiee and the Glen Lodge team. Beckiee went the extra mile for us throughout the wedding process, through the prompt replies to our emails and the booking of vendors. We feel as though we couldn’t have organised our wedding without the support from Beckiee. Many of our guests felt as though the wedding venue, decorations and day itself was stunning. They all commented on the friendliness of the staff and their professionalism. We cannot speak any higher of Glen Lodge and feel as though anyone who is considering Glen Lodge as a venue are in for a truly amazing wedding experience. From the bottom of our hearts, Thank you all so much.”

Saturday 5th October 2019 “Well what can I say... The venue itself is truly beautiful, and ALL of the staff there on the night were fab! When we booked our wedding here, 18months before, the venue was just plans and seeing it come to life has been amazing. It turned out better than anyone expected and I was so happy that we had picked Glen Lodge to host our day. All my guests commented on how beautiful the venue was, it's a little Gem only a few people know of. And what can I say say about Beckiee?!!! this Girl is amazing!!!! She has made the whole experience stress free and enjoyable. Nothing was too much trouble for her. Everything I asked for she would go out of her way to make it achievable. Beckiee is the most loveliest person I have ever met and every time I talk to her, it's like I'm talking to one one of my friends. I am so glad she was there on the day to pull everything together and take control and make it the best it could of been. Thank you all. Would highly recommend to anyone thinking of getting married.”

Saturday 10th August 2019 “I know we have already thanked you for the way you organised and managed Christopher and Natasha’s wedding on 10th August, but we feel we must, more formally, place on record how appreciative we are of the efforts made by both yourself and every member of team working last Saturday. Bawburgh clearly is a splendid ‘wedding venue’ which in this case was enhanced further by the amazing way it was set up on the day, the flowers in particular were quite magnificent. As for the food, from beginning to end, so much of it, so well presented, quality and quantity combined. Everyone we have spoken to since has remarked how outstanding this was for an event of this nature. You and the many members of your team worked tirelessly over a very long day to ensure a happy time was had by all, you were successful in your pursuit. As I have said, we appreciate the efforts of all concerned. Whilst opportunities to recommend ‘wedding venues’ are limited, we would have no hesitation in singing the praises of Bawburgh should such an opportunity arise.”

Friday 21st June 2019 “To all at Glen Lodge who made our Wedding the most fantastic day anyone could wish for. The day was everything we dreamed of and much more. The venue, the food and wonderful people we met on the day who could not do enough for us both made our day a very special one. All of our guests were so impressed with the venue and the set up and said what a perfect place for a wedding it was. Most of all we would like to say a big Thank You to Beckiee who was absolutely lovely, her helpfulness in arranging our wedding was brilliant bearing in mind we had no idea what we wanted and she gave us all the help and advice anyone could wish for.”

Saturday 15th June 2019 “We booked the venue way back in 2018 when Glen Lodge was just the dream. We always throughout the booking process and leading up to the wedding party had fantastic communication and support from Beckiee and her team. We were so excited to see the finished result when we visited on Glen Lodge’s open day. We were certainly not disappointed it was everything we dreamed of and more. The Lodge was stunning, so beautiful, with the amazing indoor and outdoor space with veranda was phenomenal. The extra features were stunning. We were so excited to hold our wedding party there and share this fantastic venue with our friends and family. We have had amazing feedback from guests who said the venue was just so beautiful and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We had the most fantastic day, with the best memories made. Glen Lodge is a dream venue.”

Saturday 11th May 2019 “We were married here on 11th May 2019 and it was the best decision we've ever made! The venue is absolutely stunning both inside and out. We were blessed with lovely weather and had a beautiful ceremony outside on the terrace. The staff couldn't do enough for us and Beckiee our wedding co ordinator is just awesome, she totally made the whole experience from start to finish an absolute joy. The food was amazing, we had a full evening buffet and a 5 star restaurant couldn't of done better. We can't recommend this venue highly enough, the location is beautiful. Everyone who came have been telling us how amazing the day was. Would love to tell you all the wonderful details that made it so special but my review would be a book! To top it off we got to ride in golf buggies!”
