Norwood Park

Norwood Hall, my favourite place! The moment we saw Norwood we knew we had found our wedding venue. We loved the staircase as you enter and gold & white elements throughout, it felt royal! Firstly, I would like to thank Richard. He initially showed us around the venue and was there throughout our booking process, so to find out he would be with us on the day meant a lot to me. Richard is professional, knowledgeable and kind. He is excellent at his job and we are very lucky to have had him with us through our wedding planning process. He made me laugh! He made me feel at ease, and he is an amazing dress fluffer! The team as a whole are so kind and helpful. Replies were prompt, nothing was too much of an ask. They personalised our requests to involve Jamaican elements such as rum punch welcome drinks. The team really do want to ensure you have the wedding of your dreams and the support we still receive from them is lovely! Norwood felt like our home for the day & the staff felt like family! I would also like to thank Katie whose passion shines through (I hope you have a lovely wedding, not long now!) Sharon who we appreciated for making us feel welcome at our venue tasting, it was so lovely to see you again on our wedding day! We are thankful for your touches such as bringing our drinks that we abandoned over to us after our photos. Lisa, Olivia & the catering team who were professional, efficient and said kind words about the speeches. Also Hazel who we saw around Norwood quite a lot prior to our wedding day, she is head of housekeeping and is very knowledgeable of the hall. She complimented me throughout the day and is a very lovely lady! All our guests commented on how lovely the food was. Our food was delightful!!! Canapes, main course & dessert. And the American buffet in the evening was incredible! We also throughly enjoyed the set up of the venue tasting session we had prior to the wedding. Having our own table decorated was special and we got to try the different wines & food to help make our decisions. Breakfast the next morning was one of the best breakfasts I had! This was included for all guests who stayed and was a buffet style. It was special for us to have that time to reflect & say goodbye to guests. The house itself is so beautiful. When you pull up the elegance and beauty of the house makes you fall In love! The staircase for me was also a plus (I love a staircase). The rooms were all different but spectacular in their own way. Especially the bridal suite and duke suite where the bride and groom can get ready in the morning. I think it’s such a lovely touch to have grooms suite! We had guests stay at the lodges and also had a lovely stay. The fact Norwood had accommodation was a plus for us as we had family travelling so this was important. We fell in love with the bandstand for our wedding ceremony, I never imagined myself getting married outside but the beauty of this area made it a must! Considering it was outside all our guests heard our vows well due to the positioning of the trees. We had our wedding breakfast in the long room, this room will forever blow me away! I just absolutely love the white walls & gold chandeliers. I loved that the wedding ceremony & drinks reception area was separate to the breakfast & reception area. It added an element of surprise for our guests after the drinks reception! The evening reception was also special for us, the room was one we had hoped for! When you walk in it has twinkly lights on the ceiling and a lovely long bar. It felt like an exclusive club! They also provided a dancerfloor which was handy as we wanted one!! The area went into an outside courtyard which was nice as it kept everyone together even when outside. I will never forget the magic Norwood provided for us on our wedding day. The beauty of the building, the backdrop of the grounds, the amazing team. I would recommend Norwood again and again! And I will keep searching for ways to visit again and again! Thank you so much, The Harrison’s x

From booking the venue 2 years ago we knew from the start it was the best decision we’d made. We always felt so welcome at Norwood. From the very start the staff have been incredible in helping us with any need we had, whether in person at the many wedding fayres, showcases and Christmas markets we attended or by quick and friendly responses to many emails, even getting excited with us in the weeks leading up to the big day. By the time of the wedding we felt surrounded by even more friends. The food was delicious, and they catered to our guests dietary requirements and choices, with no issues at all. They could not do enough for us on the day and we felt so very spoilt by them all and we had some good laughs along the way. The house is like something straight out of a fairytale and the bedrooms are beautiful and in keeping with the rest of the house. The grounds are stunning. The time and effort that has gone and continues to go into making Norwood as beautiful as it is is obvious. Our guests are still raving about how great the staff were and how stunning the grounds are. The attention to detail is second to none and we cannot recommend Norwood park enough to anyone planning their wedding. Nothing was ever too much for team Norwood. We’d love to relive our day over and over and cannot wait for the next excuse for us to go back.

We were lucky enough to attend a friends wedding and stay over at Norwood country House. The house itself is spectacular, the room was stunning and luxurious. The staff on the day could not do enough for the guests, nothing was too much trouble. The food both reception and evening buffet were absolutely delicious and first class service. I would highly recommend Norwood Park to any bride to be.

I’ve always known Norwood Park was the kind of place I would love to get married. When we got engaged and visited for the first time, we both fell in love and knew it was the place for us. We knew it was a beautiful setting, exclusive use, and loved the fact that the venue is historic yet modern and well kept at the same time. What we didn’t know at the time we booked was just how amazing the people that work at Norwood are. From the moment we booked, until the morning after our big day, nobody could have done more for us. From first contact and through the 19 month wait until our wedding day, communication was great. I often emailed little questions I had and always got a response within a few hours. Nothing was ever too much trouble and every person we encountered was super helpful. After our final meeting, we felt confident that everything would be smooth on the day. Rich made us feel like we were in very capable hands and that he would make sure everything was perfect. On the day itself this was the case and everything flowed seamlessly. A special thank you to Hazel too who we only met on the day but worked tirelessly from first thing in the morning checking all the rooms, until the evening guiding us to our cake cutting and first dance and was there in the morning helping us get all of our belongings together. All the staff members really are pro’s at what they do and I didn’t have to worry about anything. We had the best day of our lives and are so grateful for all of the hard work of everyone at Norwood that went into making our dream day a reality.

Norwood Park is a truly stunning venue and the staff there are superb. We selected the venue for our wedding in May 2024 and it was a magical setting for a wonderful day. The house and the gardens are all in excellent condition and very well-kept - all of the bedrooms and bathrooms are charismatic as the house itself, but they are modernised to provide excellent comfort for all our guests. A number of our guests remarked on their sheer wonderment of the house and said it was an amazing setting for the day! The food throughout the day was delicious and plentiful - even for a mass-catering event for 70 people, the food was not only of excellent quality, but it was all served promptly and it was all piping hot! They showed brilliant flexibility with a number of dietary requirements throughout the day and they nailed all of them on the day. The staff were brilliant throughout the entire process - from the moment we initially viewed the house, to securing the venue, and making all the plans for the day, everyone we dealt with was extremely helpful and thoroughly communicative throughout the process. On the day itself, everyone was incredibly helpful - and all the plans we'd made ahead of time were executed without a hitch on the day. Their attentiveness really helped us just enjoy ourselves on the day and we could trust them to help the day go smoothly. We'd give it 6 stars if we could!

Went to a Wedding Fare here on Sunday 23rd, lovely location and outstanding views. Brilliant for the kids with the Highland Cows and all round great service from those that were offering on that day. Staff were beyond polite and friendly. They couldn’t have been more helpful with the children. A very nice idea of where to get married in the future!
