- PPaula and David28/10/2016Simply beautifulSimply beautifulOn choosing our venue, the Vault sold it to us! It's simply beautiful. We only had a small, intimate wedding, and the Vault was the perfect size too. Carla was simply fabulous from beginning to the end and made the whole process very easy. Our guests had a great time reporting that it was one of the best weddings they'd been to - need we say more! P&D.On choosing our venue, the Vault sold it to us! It's simply beautiful.

- PPhil and Sarah28/10/2016Many said it was the best wedding they has been toMany said it was the best wedding they has been toHi Carla Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for making our wedding day so fabulous. We had the most amazing time and your help both in the run up and on the day itself was invaluable. Everything ran like clockwork, the room looked even better than I could ever have imagined and the food was perfect. All of the staff who worked that day were brilliant and the feedback we have been getting from our guests has been so complementary. Many have said it was the best wedding they had been too and everyone said it was the most stunning venue and they just loved that cheese table!! In case you’re wondering, yes we are still eating the bread and the cheese! OMG It was like a harvest festival J It was so good to see you guys enjoying the music too.

- MMichael and Louise28/10/2016Carla and the team got everything spot on!Carla and the team got everything spot on!There aren't words describe how amazing our wedding day went from start to finish. The Vault provided a breath-taking venue that our guests fell in love with instantly, just as we had already. There's something romantic and so very special about the candle lit vault, that you just won't get at a typical wedding venue. Carla and the team got everything spot on - from the running of the day, to the set up of the table decorations just as I had pictured in my head and the of course the delicious wedding breakfast. I wish we could do it all over again! There aren't words describe how amazing our wedding day went from start to finish.

- SSteve and Julie28/10/2016Our day went without a hitchOur day went without a hitchWe can’t thank Carla and her team enough for making our day perfect. They worked really hard to make sure our wedding went according to plan. The food and service was excellent and there was nothing that was too much trouble. The transition from ceremony to wedding breakfast to reception was amazing. Carla was very attentive and listened to our wants and special requirements as one of our guests is disabled. The team was very professional and unobtrusive, working hard in the back ground to ensure our day went without a hitch. George Vaults has a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, seamlessly combining a trendy wine bar with oodles of history. We can’t thank Carla and her team enough for making our day perfect.

- TTrudi and Mark28/10/2016Romantic, Rustic yet magnificentRomantic, Rustic yet magnificentFrom the first contact to our actual day, the team at George Vaults helped create our perfect day. Our wedding was an intimate family affair, with a warm, loving atmosphere with simple decorations and no dj. The Vault setting is romantic, rustic yet magnificent and created an ambiance like no other. The wedding breakfast package we chose allowed enough choice that it catered for dietary requirements and vegan options. We chose to have giant jenga, donut wedding cakes, candy station and music was piped in from the bar above. The staff were just perfect! The barman also performed slight of hand magic at the bar, which kept plenty of people interested. All 25 of our guests felt happy, full and comfortable in their surroundings and we couldn't have asked for more!

- VVicky and Kevin28/10/2016We couldnt have asked for moreWe couldnt have asked for moreThe first time we visited The George Vaults, we knew it was the perfect venue for our wedding. The vault was very intimate and perfect for the number of guests that attended. We were blessed with glorious weather, so the garden was lovely for our guests to relax in, prior to the ceremony and until we were seated for our meal. All our guests commented that is was one of the best weddings that they had been too. Having Rochester Castle so close by, made it the perfect setting for our photo's. From start to finish, Carla was amazing and her team on the day were very friendly and attentive. The day ran perfectly, we couldn't have asked for more. Thanks again for making our day so special.
