Having known The Bond for its seasonal festivals we knew we wanted our wedding ceremony and reception there. It truly is a stunning venue, particularly on a barmy sunny spring day like we were lucky enough to have. The venue allowed us to combine our theme of disco but a relaxed setting with the beautiful courtyard outside and the cool and modern interior inside. All of our guests commented on how amazing it was. From the moment we booked the venue communication with the team was brilliant and they were so helpful from the outset. We were in the amazing hands of Naomi who supported us throughout and was exceptional. Every inch of the planning, detail, communication and everything was thought of. She was there to help with the setting up the day before too which really helped us and put us as ease. Additionally, as there was a wedding the next day all of our stuff was gathered up and ready for us to collect the next day. The day itself ran like clockwork due to Naomi’s incredible hard work. She didn’t stop all day and the service from her and all the staff was impeccable. We chose the Thai menu - the food was absolutely amazing and the chef was so accommodating with our different requests for the day. We have also had so many comments from our guests on the

Myself and my new wife Louisa got married here yesterday 3rd July 2021. It was better than we ever could have hoped for. All throughout the uncertainty of COVID the team (especially Katie) was remarkably flexible and accommodating. They went out of their way to make the process easy and stress-free even as things were changing right down to 2 weeks before our planned date! We had a very generous food tasting and the menu was extremely good value for money. The food itself was excellent and extra canapes were put on for vegetarians so that they had more variety at no extra cost. The day before we were allowed to come and set up which was great and the staff there - Luke and Esther were both friendly and helpful beyond the normal level. It made the running of the day so much easier. On the actual day everything ran so smoothly, even with the changes that had to be made last minute for COVID (such as table service only and no bars). The venue was gorgeous and there was the added benefit of a nesting duck in the wonderful courtyard!! Nothing went wrong at all and Luke made sure that everything ran smoothly, including pushing the ceremony back a little bit. The venue itself is a converted church/warehouse with wonderful high ceilings and natural lighting. The decor is quite indie with all sorts of different old chairs and amazing art work. The ceremony and food halls are also separate so there is no big delay or hanging around at any time. We just want to say thank you for everything and I cannot recommend this venue and the team highly enough. What you get for your money is extraordinary especially given what other similar venues were charging. These are up and coming

As soon as we saw Fazeley we knew it was the perfect space for us. The guests were stunned by the Grand gallery and how beautiful it was, and the Winter Garden was the perfect space to add colour in the form of flowers. We loved the layout with dancefloor in the middle, with bar and courtyard either side. It meant all the guests stayed close to each other with no divides between the party groups and really made it feel like one big wedding! In terms of Fazeley, I cannot thank Katie and the team enough. From start to finish they made everything so easy, so straightforward. They liaised with the band and the chair hire companies without any problems. They were always free to meet whenever we needed. The food was wonderful, easy to mix and match (we chose the Barbecue with a trio of desserts) and our guests loved it. In the evening Rose and the staff set up our Cheese cake and decorated it beautifully. From start to finish everyone was fantastic and I cannot recommend i

The best day of my life and it was thanks to Fazeley and the team. All the way through Abbi, our co ordinator, had been on hand to assist. No problem was too big or too small and she always got back to us promptly. She dealt with a lot of panicky bride emails towards the end but always went out of her way to keep us calm and relaxed. The wedding day itself was perfectly co ordinated you could tell that everything we had told Abbi has been communicated down to the last detail. All the staff were lovely and went out of their way to make sure it was our day. We are still receiving compliments on the venue it really is a hidden gem I cannot stress enough what a marvellous venue Fazeley is. If you want something quirky, a bit different but still have a touch of elegance then Fazeley is for you. I didn’t eat much of the food because

Adam and I got married on November 25th 2017 at Fazeley Studios and we had the most wonderful day. From the outset of our meeting with Abbi (the wedding co-ordinator) she was on hand to assist with everything to ensure our day was exactly as we had hoped it would be. Our friends and family shared an extremely special day at won

We booked the venue over 14 months before our wedding. From day 1 Abbi and her team were all over what we wanted. No query was too trivial and they were always ready to answer our calls. On the day the venue was dressed beyond our wildest dreams. On the day everything in exactly the place we wanted the room was beautiful and the staff literally could not done enough. They smiled and chatted to our guests working amazingly hard and nothing was too much. Emma and the day team organised the endless canapes, succulent hog roast and unending amount of sides. The food was incredible and my guests went up for second and third helpings. Everything went so so smoothly and we just relaxed and enjoyed our day. We didn't worry about a thing. Not to mention the Evening team led by the lovely James who took a lot of stick from me the cheeky bride. I could not recommend the venue staff food and location any more. Please go to the open evenings to get an idea of how this venue is a hidden and fa

We had our wedding day at Fazeley Studios on Saturday 22nd July 2017. Fazeley Studios was only the second place we viewed and it was absolutely perfect. Abbi was fantastic in helping us to plan the day, really quick to respond to queries, so accommodating to any requests we had, and gave us lots of advice on what would work best on the day. It really helped to make it all completely stress free. Emma and her team couldn't have done anymore for us on the day and nothing was too much trouble, from ensuring the timings were on track to arranging taxi's for guests at the end of the night. The venue itself is beautiful, something a bit different, and not what you would expect walking in from the street. It was very clean, spacious, and had great light. The food was fantastic from the in house caterers with lots of

We saw Fazeley Studios here on the hitched website and knew we had to go and see it in person. Once we got there, we fell in love with it straight away. We had other venues lined up to view but cancelled those appointments and booked Fazeley. From the day we confirmed our booking to our wedding day we had the best support and guidance possible. Abbi went above and beyond - we even changed the date and she accommodated us. No ask was too big, no request too unreasonable. We could not have asked for a better coordinator. On the day itself, the on site staff looked after us and kept things running smoothly. We felt like King and Queen for the day, it was amazing. If you want something a bit different, a mixture of classic and modern plus the wow fac

Fazeley Studios is the perfect wedding venue. The place is incredible as are the staff. From the initial wedding fayre, we were in love with the rooms. Those blue doors are iconic, and the contrast from outside to inside is one of a kind. Abbi did the most incredible job in ensuring all our wishes were catered for - the caribbean bbq is beyond delicious! Despite there being a slight police issue (not connected to us or the venue) on the morning of the wedding the ceremony and reception went ahead as planned thanks to Abbi and the staff - a big thanks to them all - especially Rose and James. I genuinely cannot thank or praise

We held our wedding here on the 24th September 2016. From day one we knew this was the right venue for us. Abbi was great as a wedding planner leading to our big day – communicative, helpful and set our mind at ease on every occasion with questions we may have asked. Our day went without a hitch, great staff, great food and smooth as clockwork, and couldn’t have been more accommodating in helping us with various live music set ups that needed to be put in place. Emma in particular was brilliant on our day and couldn’t have been more helpful. All of our guests commented on just what an amazing place Fazel

If we could give it 6 stars we would! We had our wedding here on 27th August and couldn't have asked for a better day. The staff that helped with the planning on leading up to it were fab and the staff on the day couldn't have done more for us if we wanted! Food was great (our friends and family all keep going on about it too!) and everyone commented on how great the place was itself!

I wanted to say how absolutely brilliant Fazeley was for our wedding day (March 2016). A special thanks to Emma and Raphael for looking after us so brilliantly. Everyone loved the venue and complimented the staff on how accommodating, friendly and professional they were. The food was really tasty and every dietary requirement was accommodated for, also the bar prices were very reasonable. We cannot fault a single thing, thank you so much for making it so seamless. We especially appreciate the help and support of Tara. I would thoroughly recommend this venue.
