Peter and Francesca have created such an amazing space at Ripple Court and we were so happy to get to use all of it for our big day, our big weekend. With this venue you get access to this beautiful estate for the whole weekend. There are so many spaces at Ripple Court to take advantage of and walk through for your event. From the getting ready spaces, the gardens, and the ballroom our guests felt like it was one amazing space after another the whole weekend. They both took the vision that we had, filled in the gaps, and brought it all to fruition. Francesca is in charge of the execution of the weekend events and she makes sure nothing slips through and that everything is communicated to all vendors. We really feel that everything went so smoothly from start to finish thanks to her. The catering staff that Ripple Court works with is mouth watering delicious. Clive worked with us on creating three menus for the weekend and created food that our guests are still talking about weeks later. He was helpful for our guests with dietary restrictions as well. The staff that you do and don't get to see were amazing! Their service and presence were stellar. They were a joy to have around and so helpful if anyone had a question. The vibes of the weekend were so calm for us and so easygoing every step of the way. Our guests continue to rave about the venue, the food, and

Where to start, for such a spectacular place? Ripple Court is an absolutely beautiful venue, with a friendly and professional team that will work alongside you to ensure your wedding day is a joyful, seamless and fun day that reflects you, your style and your relationship. Space and time to enjoy your special day with the people that matter most to you, and an event that your guests will be talking about for years to come. Ripple Court Estate was the first wedding venue we visited, and truly nowhere else came close (which we kind of suspected might be the case), so we booked it! From the beautiful and varied grounds (Secret-Garden-esque hidden corners, and tunnels of apple and pear trees, alongside expanses of lawn) to the perfectly thought-out and appointed spaces across the venue, Ripple Court has so much to offer and enjoy, and our guests could not stop talking about how amazing it is! From our first visit, until we arrived for the wedding, Peter and Fran made the whole lead up to and planning of our wedding fun and easy! They were communicative, thoughtful, flexible, full of great ideas for how to make the most of the time and space, and always made us feel special and looked after. The same was true across the wedding weekend. Fran and Mica ensured everything was taken care of, kept us updated and consulted without making anything feel stressful, and took great care of our guests, too – in particular my Mum and 10-month-old daughter. We had several children at the wedding, and many guests mentioned how great Mica was with them all. It really made such a difference. Having exclusive use of the venue for the full three days meant we could really make the most of the space, and of spending time with our friends and family. From a barbeque on the Friday to a brunch on the Sunday, nothing felt rushed, and we were able to luxuriate in the joy and love across the weekend. The bridal suite and getting ready spaces are incredibly well thought out. Plenty of space for morning celebrations, for errant family members to sit and have a cup of tea (or something stronger!) and not get in the way, and for multiple dresses, shoes, make up bags, and whatever else you might want around you when you’re getting ready. Having the cottage on site, too, meant my parents and daughter were right there, but we could still have space and the luxury of a couple of nights baby-free! The food from caterers, Gatherers, was delicious and plentiful. Guests remarked on it being the best wedding food they’d ever had and, indeed, some even said it topped the nicest restaurant meals they’d had, too. From canapes focused on flavour and quality ingredients, to huge sharing platters of flavourful food, we were bowled over by the quality. I could go on and on, but honestly it is hard to sum up j

Peter and Fran did an incredible job, tailoring our day to exactly what we wanted. They have incredible suppliers, Tim their go-to chef pulled out all the stops for an Italian banquet-style wedding reception. The grounds are stunning and the perfect backdrop to a day of revelry. We loved moving from all the different locations across the day for different bits of music, food and fun. Cannot r

Peter and Fran made our wedding day truly unforgettable and we feel so blessed to have shared our journey with them. Designed and decorated perfectly, Ripple Court Estate is one of a kind with an exclusivity you won’t find anywhere else. From the moment we saw it, we knew we couldn’t get married anywhere else. What we loved most about this venue was the adventure it offers through the day. Leading our guests through the many pockets of beauty created an adventure for everyone to experience. From the walled rose garden, to the jaw dropping Georgian Manor House and finishing in the stunning walled gardens. Every moment being greeted by wonderfully helpful and friendly staff who consistently ensured we had everything we needed. Ripple Court really is the perfect place to get married. It’s more than just a venue, it’s an experience you will never forget. We will forever treasure the time we shared here alongside two absolutely fabulous hosts. Thank you Peter and Fran for making our wedding day perfect. Lots of love, Jasmine and Elliott xxx
