Compton Verney

We held our wedding at Compton Verney in May and it was absolutely everything we could have asked for and more. When we first looked around the venue we fell in love with the place. Such a unique wedding location being an art gallery with stunning grounds and a beautiful, bright chapel for the ceremony. We quickly decided on a date and got it booked in which was a seamless process. Hannah, our main contact at Compton Verney, is brilliant. She talked us through absolutely everything we needed to know. Many times we messaged and emailed her with questions that we had and she would always respond quickly. She is also extremely calm and puts you at ease so that you can relax and enjoy the day. She also accommodated us visiting multiple times in the run up the wedding to check room sizes and other requirements. We had our ceremony in the chapel which is a space you have to see in person to appreciate how beautiful it is. We then had a cocktail drinks reception on the lawn at the back of the property (we got lucky with a bit of sunshine!) but the alternative would have been drinks in the Naples gallery, an equally stunning space. The Adam Hall hosted the wedding breakfast and evening party - again this is such an interesting and unique space and perfect for the occasion. All of our guests were incredibly impressed and complimentary of the venue and staff. The day passed by so quickly and Hannah and the rest of the team handled everything so brilliantly. We'r

The venue is truly incredible. The lighting in the chapel and the intimacy of the seating, the galleries for a champagne reception and the majestic adam hall - our guests were obsessed with it all. The team at CV are also a pleasure to work with. We had hannah project managing our day and she was easy to co

We held our elopement wedding at Compton Verney in the chapel and it was simply perfect. The chapel is gorgeous; light, beautiful, and stunning in photographs, and the galleries and grounds provided a wonderful backdrop for our day and the photographs. The staff were lovely throughout, with great communication in the lead-up, and were so wonderfully accommodating on the day itself, even kindly offering to be our witnesses (thank you again Hannah and Jane). Despite us being persistently disorganised both in the run-up and on the day, everything ran beautifully, our last minute changes were accommodated and we couldn't have wished for more. We particularly enjoyed ringing the

Compton Verney meant something to us before we even started wedding planning and was the first and only venue we considered. Outside of a wedding day, Compton Verney already has an air of magic about it. It's a beautiful blend of culture, nature, stunning buildings and grounds, and staff who radiate a love for the whole place. It is truly is something special and when you add a wedding on top of that, it couldn't be more perfect. Both the chapel and Adam Hall are so striking yet open to adding your own colours and touches to make it completely yours and the option of having the drinks reception in the galleries provides in built entertainment for your guests. Having said that, we had some further unique ideas for the entertainment such as visiting reindeer and gingerbread decorating and the staff couldn't have been more open and supportive in realising these ideas! The building and grounds speak for themselves but the true magic really does lie in the people. Every person who we interacted with during the whole process was warm and totally committed to making sure we could have the best day ever. No detail was too small and the day ran seamlessly with supportive, organised and smiling people on top of everything. We want to thank the team at Compton Verney for a magic filled day and would specifically like to thank Hannah for being such wonderful and efficient coordinator. We were in very safe hands! Any queries or worries during the process were met with quick, friendly and informative responses. We also want to thank Jane, John and Claire for helping to run the day so smoothly and for being such kind and friendly people. And last, but not at all least, we want to thank Denise who threw herself into helping us set up the day before with such positivity, creativity and generosity of spirit. This is not a factory wedding venue, it is something quite special and we will be forever grateful to have had the wedding that we did and are looking forward to visiting again and again, reminiscing of our wedding and creating new memories also. I hope that if this review

From start to finish Hannah and her team made the whole process of planning a wedding easier, from renting all the linen and dance floor, recommending suppliers including our lovely celebrant, the general running of the whole wedding day to ensure everyone had everything they needed, my husband and I not seeing one another until our first look as I was putting my dress on at the venue, and that we had a quiet space too in the women's library later on when we needed a quiet moment away from the business of the day. The venue itself is beautiful so we didn't feel we needed to do much decoration at all and our guests enjoyed having the art galleries for the drinks reception and cocktail hour after dinner. I felt like there were enough spaces for people to explore, chill and have fun dancing at the same time.

The venue was amazing and the chapel is so beautiful inside. As soon as we saw this venue we instantly booked it for our wedding. The event staf

We had our ceremony at Compton Verney and were keen to try and have it by the lakeside. Unfortunately the forecast was a bit changeable in the run up but Hannah and the team really understood how keen we were to be outside. The weather was perfect on the day and we managed to get our outdoor ceremony. I can’t praise Hannah and Jane in particular enough. They were both so warm throughout our planning and on

We held our wedding and drinks reception at Compton Verney. Not only is the property, chapel and grounds everything we could have dreamed of and more but the staff were incredible from start to finish. So supportive and helpful, they became a big and welcome part of our day. We feel we hav

Our combined ages are 160 so there a few challenges, not least when I developed lower back pain days before the ceremony, but the team provided special parking and a wheelchair. Everything was meticulously organised. Our guests were very impressed by the setting. The approved caterer was first rate as was the recomme

We felt privileged to get married at Compton Verney, it is a truly amazing location that will make our wedding memorable not just for us but our guests. The team were

We couldn’t have chosen a more stunning and memorable venue for our wedding than Compton Verney. Having grown up visiting Compton Verney as a child and with an interest in its incredible artwork, it was always a dream wedding venue! Hannah and the team were incredibly helpful and professional, ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. They truly went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Throughout the planning process, Hannah was so attentive and flexible, catering to our requests

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Compton Verney. The whole wedding/events team that were both involved on the day and throughout the planning stages were fantastic! Hannah and the team were so accommodating and flexible (especially considering our quick turnaround). Samantha was our co-ordinator on the day and did an amazing job, going above and beyond her duties. It was a pleasure having her as part of our day, and many of our guests commented on how friendly and profe

Upon looking for a wedding venue, we only visited Compton Verney as we were being very selective and there were very few beautiful buildings with light and bright interiors. We fell in love instantly. The Chapel was a real selling point as it had a very Italian romantic ceremony feel and combining the use of the outside grounds, the courtyard and Adams Hall made Compton Verney an easy choice for our special day. The venue is STUNNING!! It’s hard to find a wedding venue that compares but it does come with some restrictions with it being a listed building, There were a few elements we really wanted but were not able to go ahead with due to this.. we didn’t actually take this into consideration when booking. I must add, Compton Verney did always offer alternative ideas. Hannah, the Events Coordinator was honestly so helpful. She helped us throughout every process, including communicating with all suppliers etc, bringing our special day together seamlessly. Hannah also suggested ideas and helped us to make them reality. The day itself was just PERFECT. All the little things we worried about were just a waste of time. The staff working on the wedding day went above and beyond. Everything ran so smoothly. We want to say a huge thank you

We married at Compton Verney in May 2024 and our experience was nothing short of brilliant. The staff are dilig

The staff at CV are fantastic at their job. We had the type of wedding that required multiple settings and a tight schedule. They were very professional and accommodating at every step. Since they are a functioning art gallery, they will always have a temperature-controlled rainy day plan. The Capability Brown landscape is absolutely breathtaking; people couldn't stop talking about it. All in all: such a perfect venue that you can keep visiting year after year with family and friends.
