You will not be disappointed with Bruisyard Hall!!You will not be disappointed with Bruisyard Hall!!
Bruisyard Hall was the perfect venue for our wedding last week. From the day we viewed the hall and barn, we knew it was where we wanted our wedding. Bethany has been so helpful in the planning and organisation over the last few months and we always had our questions answered quickly. The venue looked amazing on the day and I was so surprised at how smoothly everything went. The house is an amazing place to stay and made the weekend even more special.

The best venue for the perfect dayThe best venue for the perfect day
Firstly Wow. Secondly thank you to Alan, Katie and the Bruisyard team for making our wedding day so special! Bruisyard was the first and only venue we looked at because as soon as we drove up to the property we knew it was the place for us. Katie was our co-ordinator and she was there day and night to answer my countless emails regarding things. The Hall was lovely for our stay and our guests loved all the little touches and exploring the house before and after the big day! We had the turn down service and it was so nice to come back to our nice tidy room after a long day and just jump into the comfiest bed I’ve ever slept in. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need and the housekeeping team even put away our shopping that we had delivered for the weekend. The barn is just an exceptional place, I had a vision for our wedding day and Bruisyard let me do whatever I wanted to the venue to achieve that. The food and service for our wedding breakfast was incredible and everybody commented on how amazing it was. Bruisyard was the perfect venue for our big day and I wouldn’t of changed a thing about it. It was amazing from the start. Firstly Wow.

Wedding of our dreamsWedding of our dreams
We had the wedding of our dreams here a couple of weeks ago. Serena and her team are amazing, the food was incredible and exactly how we wanted it - we had so many compliments from people saying it was the best wedding food they've ever had. Having the place to ourselves for 3 days was so special, being able to share our weekend with friends and family. Thank you so much Bruisyard!We had the wedding of our dreams here a couple of weeks ago.

I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for such an amazing day. We have only been home a few hours however we have had no end of compliments from our family and friends saying how fantastic the day was and especially the venue. We can’t fault you and your services. Thank you for all of your hard work making our day so very special. The food was amazing so please pass our compliments onto your fabulous chef. Can we keep your pizza chef?! The pizzas were delicious! The music was also fabulous so please pass our thanks onto Dreamwave for putting on tunes that kept our guests dancing until the very last song! Bethany, Thank you for being so approachable and friendly yet still so professional, you answered all of our questions along the way and made us feel instantly at ease. Alan, Thank you for giving us the sunniest November day we’ve had in years! You promised me the day I booked the wedding last year that we would be looked after and have amazing weather and you were right! You and your staff are fantastic! I attach a couple of our guests photos from the day, which are by no means professional however they are nice photos. As soon as our professional photos come through I will send some over. Thank you again for everything and making our first day as Mr&Mrs such a memorable one. I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for such an amazing day.

Such a precious daySuch a precious day
Wow! We've just had our wedding at this venue and stayed at the Hall for two night. I can't praise the team at Bruisyard hall enough. The bridal and groom party all stayed at the hall and everyone was just in awe of how beautiful the Hall was, to the team being so attentive and most importantly, Serena. The amount of attention to detail was incredible, everything run so smoothly, Serena was always there to help, to make sure everything was going to plan. Honestly, it was faultless - a true asset to the team. A truly exceptional place, your team are brilliant and all so hard working, lovely and friendly- just incredible. I could keep going on because the whole thing was just perfect. We were unfortunate to have my nan have a fall at the barn, however yet again, they went beyond our expectations. The owner of the hall was at the hall within minutes to check if my nan was alright, the team were all there, to help. They don't just do what their job title is, they go up and beyond. Thankyou so much for helping create such a precious day for us. Out of this world, thankyou from the bottom of our heartsWow!

Bruisyard Hall is the most magical place on earth!Bruisyard Hall is the most magical place on earth!
Bruisyard hall is the most magical place on earth! Albeit I'm feeling fairly biased as my new husband and I are still on cloud nine since our beautiful wedding on Wednesday. This place is really what dreams are made of! From the outstanding accommodation at the hall to the stunning barn in which we were wed! The staff are exceptional and so professional, nothing was too much trouble and our every whim was perfectly catered for! Our wedding went off without a hitch and we had an abundance of positive feedback from our guests. We would highly recommend Bruisyard Hall & Barn to anyone looking for the most perfect country wedding venue. We had the best day of our lives, if only we could re-live it all over again !Bruisyard hall is the most magical place on earth!

FAQs

Find out a bit more from our FAQs

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?

Every wedding at Bruisyard is so different as we like to be as flexible as we can so it's so hard to pick out the 'best' wedding!

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Find a venue that takes your breathe away but keep your budget in mind or look at ways if making it work. And have fun! Let your wedding venue/ planner/ coordinator help out where they can and ensure you enjoy the whole process.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

Oh, there's so many!! One couple planted an oak tree within our estate (oak as you know, being the 80th wedding anniversary) just like the bride's grandparents did on their wedding day!

Describe your venue in 5 adjectives.

Intimate, relaxed, refined, rustic and charming

Where’s the best photo spot at your venue?

There's so many spots we can barely choose a 'best' one. We love seeing all of the informal shots, of family and friends, over their whole stay with us, just having fun and creating memories.

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at your venue?

Of course - but we couldn't say who!

What’s your favourite canapé?

Having had the opportunity to taste soooo many canapés, this is a tough one! We love the Gressingham duck breast with baby spinach on a potato rosti.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

You can't beat our Pulled pork with BBQ sauce and root vegetable slaw in a brioche bun served near the end of the days celebrations.

What is your venue's most unique feature?

It's steeped in history yet has isn't stuffy like some ancient venues. The Hall really does welcome you when you arrive and is a home-from-home.

What part of your business are you most proud of?

The high quality - from the grounds and standard of accommodation to the service we provide to every couple and event.
