James and Melissa – 12th March 2015

Absolutely amazing experience from start to finish, everything about this venue is totally stress free.  Food was exceptional and so many guests said it was the best wedding they had been too and are still talking abut the food and venue even now!

Mr and Mrs Macefield – 14th January 2015

Our Wedding and Event Manager was all we expected and a million times more, she made sure we were completely at ease from start to finish.

Being a same sex couple, we came across lots of venues who were able to do same sex marriages but we were made to feel different until we came across Fennes.  We came to view Fennes on an open evening 18 months before we got married and we fell in love, not just with the beautiful venue but with the way there was no hard sell, no badgering or pressure.  For this very reason we booked our wedding a few weeks later.

On our big day we couldn’t of asked more, the little touches made all the difference to us.

We cannot thank everyone enough and along with those special little touches gave us the most magical day of our lives.

We just wanted to write to say thank you to all the staff who truly made our day.

Samantha and Kelly Knight – 19th March 2015

What a fantastic day, at a fantastic venue! After seeing 12 venues, we knew Fennes was the place we wanted our wedding to be held, and it certainly didn’t disappoint. Thank you to our Wedding planner especially for making our day run so smoothly. Helen and Jim Wright xxx

Cassie and Daniel, 23rd May 2014

We both wanted to thank you personally for playing a special part in making our wedding day so perfect. We could not have asked for more or would change a thing about the whole day, your help and guidance was greatly appreciated. Would you also pass our thanks onto the whole staff who worked on the day, they were extremely helpful and polite. So many people have thanked us for a lovely time and many commented on now great all the food was, and all served nice and hot. We will always remember a truly wonderful day.

Cassie and Dan – Married May 2014

Now we’ve had a chance to catch our breath; Alison and I just wanted to pass on our thanks to you for all your help and support on Monday and over all the preparation. The day went wonderfully for everyone involved and that was due in no small measure to you personally. Please also pass on our thanks to everyone on your team involved in the day, including those behind the scenes. I realise that, to run things on this scale (and frequency), it must be run like a “military operation” but never for one second did anyone on the Fennes team make any of us feel anything less than special or that it was “just another job”. From the moment we arrived to drop Jenna off, to the point we drove away on Tuesday morning, every single person we had any contact with did a wonderful job. The Fennes can be rightfully proud of all it’s staff and you in particular.

Steve Lenton – April 2014

Would just like to thank you for assisting us in making the day run smoothly. I felt like it was a huge dream come true and could not have asked for it to have run better! We have had so much great feedback! We have also been asked to feature our wedding in Essex wedding magazine.

Gemma and Luke – April 2014

We had a wonderful time. We found our Wedding and Event Manager and her team extremely accommodating and helpful. She personally helped us feel at ease and made the day fit together wonderfully. Thank you truly for your help and making the day unforgettable.

Mr and Mrs Day – Married April 2014

We had an amazing day. Thank you to all the staff for making the day so perfect. All of our guests raved about the venue, the banqueting hall in the evening was a big surprise for them, they didn’t think the place was that BIG! We were so impressed by the food too, great canapes and gorgeous wedding breakfast, plus things we were not expecting like having our bath run in the Bridal Cottage with champagne, cheese and slice of our wedding cake waiting for us. We did not want the day to end. We need to persuade our friends to get married here so we can come back!

Ed and Nicky – Married April 2014

Fennes is a gorgeous wedding venue and we wanted to get married here from our first viewing. From the initial enquiry to the wedding day Fennes staff were amazing and so helpful wherever possible. Our wedding day was better than we could have ever imagined and this was due to the venue and brilliant wedding and events manager! What a lovely lady- thank you! The food was also lovely, the Fennes DJ was great and the bridal cottage superb. Thank you for making our wedding day one to remember.

Mr and Mrs Schultz, 18th March 2014

We had the most amazing day and night. Everything was above our expectations, the staff were amazing and you all should be very proud of yourselves and what you do. We are a very, very happy new husband and wife. Our Wedding and Events Manager and her team are amazing.

Mr and Mrs Wilson – Married March 2014

Excellent, professional service received from start to finish. On the day i felt our Wedding Planner provided a seamless service, as did the other Fennes staff. We could not fault anything, they were brilliant. Many thanks again from Noel & Lisa. Oh and an extra special thanks to the evening manager – she was superb! What an asset to your organisation.
