“We held our wedding in the greenhouse suite it was absolutely stunning the decor and gardens were amazing. The wedding breakfast was absolutely superb. Our wedding was made perfect Thank you Sketchley Grange.”

Cook & Smith September 2021

“Our wedding at Sketchley Grange was honestly amazing. Right from the very start when we first began planning our wedding through to the actual day was made extremely easy and stress free. We feel the wedding staff went above and beyond to ensure our day was perfect and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. All of our guests commented on how great the day was, and it was better than we ever expected. We would recommend getting married at Sketchley Grange.”

Gaggini & Smallwood July 2021

“After having our abroad wedding cancelled 3 times we blindly booked Sketchley and it was the best decision we ever made our day was truly perfect the venue cannot do enough for you and make you feel like a million dollars. Thank you so much for giving us our perfect day! It was the best day for all involved suitable for babies to elderly.”

Sykes & Blanchard July 2021

"We held our wedding here in The Grove Suite on 10/9/21. We had quite a big wedding with 107 day guests and a few more for the evening, the room comfortably held us all without feeling over crowded. It was lovely for us to have the gardens where the children could run off and play safely.  We did all of the decorations ourselves and were able to set up the 12 guest wedding breakfast tables up the night before. Staff did our top table for us, and it looked amazing!  Our bridal suite was lovely, and a big space which was perfect for the morning of the wedding where there was quite a big group of us getting ready. (12 of us plus the 3 makeup and hair ladies and a photographer). Our guests commented on how big their rooms were. We cannot speak highly enough of all of the staff, from the first meetings and booking the wedding all the way through to the day. From the evening before to the day after and from the wedding coordinator Hayley to the bar staff. We couldn’t have had a better day, it was perfect, thank you. "

Bannister & Clarke September 2021

“Myself and my now husband would highly recommend Sketchley to any newly engaged couple looking for a wedding venue. Hayley and all the staff have been so helpful and we couldn't have asked for anything more from them!”

Gomez & Mummery September 2021

“We had an amazing day and everything was so well planned that it ran smoothly and we didn’t have any worries at all. The grounds are stunning and we had our own side of the hotel so though there were other hotel guests they didn’t get in our way.”

Melville & Hawkes July 2021

"We are extremely happy with the services provided by Sketchley Grange. Our wedding manager changed from Sam to Hayley, but both were very helpful and communicated well with us. Our day ran extremely well; the organisation could not have been any better. The food was lovely, the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout the day. Ashley (master of ceremonies) was also very helpful and made sure both us and our guests were happy throughout the day.

We would highly recommend Sketchley grange as a wedding venue as the cost as a whole was good value for money."

Stinton & Markland Wedding September 2021

From day one to our wedding day, nothing was too much for the Wedding Planner, Sammy. Everything was perfect for our perfect day at the Sketchley Grange.

Sammy was amazing and anything we asked or requested was done. The whole weekend experience, from the time the bridal party arrived on the Saturday night to when we left on the Monday - everything was perfect and we couldn’t have asked for a better wedding day. Thank you.

- Mr & Mrs Westwood - 6th October 2019

Samantha was great at keeping in touch with us and really helped us with getting our day planned; she helped us to feel confident and worked really well with our venue dresser to get everything looking great for the day. Good value for money. Samantha was fantastic and she was very professional, very friendly and made us feel confident about our big day.

- Downer & Ensor - 21st September 2019

Kelly the Conference & Events Manager was brilliant on the day. She kept checking if everything was ok and if we needed anything. Thank you for helping us to have an amazing day. We wish we could do it again.

- Whitten & Taylor - 20th September 2019

We would like to thank Sketchley Grange for making our Wedding Day such an amazing day.

The Staff helped us thoughout the whole special day from support to treating us like royals. Richard, who looked after us, made sure that everything ran smoothly. He guided us and aided his team to delivering us the most magical experience we could ever have asked for. 

Samantha who was our Wedding Planner arranged for us to have a meeting, so she could understand what we needed and the result was flawless - just amazing how beautiful the venue looked. The team behind reception that day made sure all our guests felt welcome. We had several people behind reception running round after us and we could not have thanked you all for such warm welcoming you made us all feel. Epic response and great team you guys are. Thank you Sketchley Grange. You are fantastic. Already looking forward to coming back to see the whole team again.

- Mr & Mrs Prior - 17th August 2019

Our wedding reception at Sketchley Grange was perfect - there’s no other word. Through planning, Sammy was always on hand with quick answers to our (seemingly) never ending list of questions and last minute changes. The day itself went very smoothly with a lovely welcome, fantastic food and a quick turnaround ready for the evening party.

I can’t recommend Sketchley Grange highly enough as a Wedding venue.

- Kelly & Sean - 9th July 2019

My day was fantastic. From the stay for me and my bridesmaids the night before, to the meal and evening reception on the day, it all went so smoothly. Friendly waiters and bar staff and a wonderful Master of Ceremonies.

- Laetitia & Tom - 3rd August 2019

All the staff, from the very beginning from the start of our planning to the wedding day - everything went without any problems. The food was fantastic and the hotel room was perfect.

We had the perfect day and it's with all the help from the staff. We have had so many compliments, from the food to the room and how professional the staff were.

It was run so well with no stress for us as a couple. The MC was fantastic, making sure we were fine and we were happy with what was happening and came to us with every step that was going to happen and what we would like to happen on the day. All the staff were fantastic.

Nikki & Klaus – 20th July 2019

We had the most perfect day, made even more special by the weather so we could get married outside which had always been a lifelong dream but not easy to find somewhere so beautiful in the area. We had stunning photos in the grounds and everything was picture perfect.

The day was made even better by Richard the master of ceremonies who was very tentative to our needs, as was our wedding coordinator and all the staff who helped and served us that day.

The food was outstanding and we had many compliments, especially about the Panna Cotta pudding which we’ll never replicate! Highly recommend Sketchley Grange hotel, fantastic all round.

We wanted to thank you so so much for everything you did for us. Helping us organise a day that we won’t ever forget. We also wanted to thank Richard. He. Was. Amazing. What a truly lovely and kind gentleman. He looked after me from the moment he arrived to the moment he left. He ensured our day went the smoothest it could be, and it went perfectly. His patience was brilliant.

Words can’t describe how thankful we are for you, Richard and everyone else that helped out throughout the day! The bar staff were fantastic and helpful! Finally, wow. Our room. Absolutely beautiful. We didn’t ever want to leave! Thank you so much,

Mr and Mrs Breed

I can’t say thanks to anyone enough at your venue. From start to finish, every single person made me and my wedding party feel welcome and so pleased to be at Sketchley. I booked our wedding 3 and a half years ago and Sophie is just out of this world - she is the most organised and friendly wedding planner. She made me feel at ease from start to finish. She even made an appearance on the wedding day, checking everything was running smoothly. For all she’s done, I’m forever grateful.

Richard (our Master of Ceremonies) - wow, he is above amazing. Richard went above and beyond, making sure everything ran smoothly and went perfectly.  I’ve never met such a hardworking and professional man in all my life.

Once again thank you all so so much for all you’ve done to ensure me, my husband and wedding party had an amazing day.

Mr & Mrs Rose

We just both wanted to say a huge thank you for all of your help over the last year. Our big day was literally perfect! We couldn’t fault anything from your exceptional service - from the first phone call through to the staff on hand throughout the day.

We would like to say a special thank you to both you and Hayley who did an outstanding job. We couldn’t have asked for a better person to make sure the day ran smoothly and we were so impressed with how in control she was from start to finish!

We will be popping by when we get back from our honeymoon with a card and gift to show our appreciation to you both for everything. We have amazing memories to look back on and we are so glad that we chose Sketchley Grange.

Thank you so much again - we’re extremely grateful and will definitely be calling back at Sketchley Grange regularly so hope to keep in contact!

Abbie & Kieran

All the staff were friendly and helpful, and made sure that the day ran smoothly! The planning was completely stress-free thanks to Sammy - she is amazing and put us at ease throughout the whole process! We can't thank everyone enough for making the day as special as it was!

- Catherine & Henry

Sketchley was the perfect venue for our wedding reception - the Grove suite was the right size and with its own bar for our guests to enjoy and an outdoor space, which we used for our photos. Guests commented on the great food - 'simple food done right'.

Sophie was helpful in the run-up to the wedding and our master of ceremonies was attentive and helpful both the evening before (allowing us to drop off lots of decorations and cakes in a spare room) and on the day itself. All round great venue and great service, thank you.

Our wedding at Sketchley Grange was the perfect day from start to finish. The planning was completely stress-free thanks to our wedding coordinator from the hotel. Nothing was too much trouble and all the little touches we wanted to incorporate were added without any hesitation.

The whole day ran like a dream thanks to Anthony and his team. From the reception staff, to bar staff, waiting staff, housekeeping, kitchen and everyone at the hotel - the staff were completely brilliant. We are so pleased that we booked Sketchley for our wedding and look forward to returning for our anniversary!

Every girl dreams of the day they get married from being little, they know exactly how and where they want it. Having our Wedding at Sketchley Grange was a dream come true. Perfect setting and the day went without any glitches. We had a lovely frosty day which was perfect for our winter wedding

Thank you so much for making our wedding everything we wished for. The whole day was stress free thanks to our wedding coordinator, she was so helpful throughout the planning process, always replied to my emails as soon as possible.
