I cannot recommend Dovecote enough! We had the most magical wedding day and want to do it all over again! The wedding coordinator Mel was amazing - so helpful & knowledgeable. She kept in touch from Day 1 and was quick to respond to any questions we had and to offer advice or suggestions on how things had been done before. She worked with all our suppliers to make sure everything was set up on time and people were in the right place at the right time. The whole team are amazing and couldn't have been more friendly or helpful on the day. We have had so many comments about how nice all the staff were. We have had so many compliments on the food and honestly, it's one of the reasons we went with Dovecote as a venue. We both love food and wanted to be able to offer tasty but not your 'standard wedding food' to our guests and the team absolutely delivered! If I wasn't the bride and having to be in every photo, I could have easily devoured a plate of canapes to myself. But, the main reason we chose Dovecote was the venue itself - it's beautiful. It is so versatile and there are so many different photo locations to choose from. We had our Ceremony in the Barn and then surprised our guests with the Wedding Breakfast/Evening in the Tipi but we also had photos in the courtyard, in the surrounding fields and in other areas. We did end up running slightly behind but the staff weren't pushy about it, they just kept us updated and we moved things along as needed. My favourite part was the Tipi in the evening - once the firepits were lit, the twinkle lights were on & guests were roasting marshmallows, it was exactly what we had pictured and I can't thank Mel and the team enough for helping creating the wedding day of our dreams.
