Message from the team
Name of Wedding Contact: Ashleigh
Thank you for your enquiry and for thinking of Woburn Safari Lodge for your wedding. If I can be of any further assistance then please feel free to contact me.
Our wedding reception at Safari Lodge was the perfect day. I wanted a traditional wedding in a unique setting and Safari Lodge was the perfect venue. Joanne was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. She was very organised and put me at ease. On the day she was amazing ensuring that everything went smoothly. Lots of our guests said how professional she was. She is a real asset to this venue. All the staff were very helpful and friendly and made our wedding day fantastic. All of our guests had lots of fun. I would definitely recommend Safari Lodge. Our wedding reception at Safari Lodge was the perfect day.

We will never forget our dayWe will never forget our day
We also wanted to send a massive thank you to Ashleigh and Jane but most of all to you Joanne. Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives and part of that is down to you, it was by chance we even found the venue while googling, and we both promised before our meeting that we would not fall in love with the venue in case it was out of our price range. However we both broke that promise upon entering the lodge, it is such a fantastic venue and after we saw it we could not have imagined having our reception anywhere else. I know we asked a lot of questions and you were so patient with us, as its a once in a lifetime thing for us we wanted to be surrounded by family and friends all having a good time and we were. So many people commented upon what a unique and beautiful venue Woburn was. We will never forget our day and the massive role you played so thank you so much for everything and who knows we may see you again as we go round the Safari.We also wanted to send a massive thank you to Ashleigh and Jane but most of all to you Joanne.

what an amazing time what an amazing time
Our wedding reception was far better than either of us anticipated and friends are still telling us now what an amazing time they had! Right from the start and through to the last minute of our wedding day and afterwards, you helped us with every aspect; kindly responding to all my emails and questions, allowing our best man to come to the venue the day before to set up props for his speech and also keeping that quiet from us was just amazing! The food was delicious and you catered for a fussy bride! We were able to access the venue the day before and set up and with that you were amazing with myself and in-laws running about the place! The bar was so reasonably priced; so much so, majority of our guests anticipated going out into MK afterwards, however, not a single one of them made it out as they were so drunk!Our wedding reception was far better than either of us anticipated and friends are still telling us now what an amazing time they had!

I really can’t thank them all enough!I really can’t thank them all enough!
We thought that Joanne Hampton was brilliant in the lead up to our wedding… she was willing to meet up with us frequently and responded to all of our email enquiries really quickly.
Joanne was on holiday for our wedding but Grace Dunham and Ashleigh James were excellent on the day and everything was perfect and just how we wanted it. All of the staff at the safari Lodge were attentive and helpful.
We were also very grateful to them all for packing everything away for us to collect the next day… they even saved us two of our cupcakes!

I literally cannot recommend the Safari Lodge enough for a special event or wedding. Leading up to the big day Ashleigh was amazing and really helped me with any questions or request I had. The day itself was just perfect and all our family & friends were so impressed with the Lodge, it's location, the food and the staff, in fact they are all asking to do it again next week!I literally cannot recommend the Safari Lodge enough for a special event or wedding.

We couldn't have asked for a better dayWe couldn't have asked for a better day
We had an absolutely amazing time, we couldn’t have asked for a better day. The
venue was perfect, the staff were very friendly & helpful, the food was delicious, the swan
boats & train ride went down a storm and the changeover of the rooms went so smoothly
I didn’t notice it happening! The only minor thing that could be improved was that the
toilet floors got quite wet, I think due to the pressure from the taps, and could have been
cleaned more regularly, especially in the evening. But that was one tiny point in an
otherwise perfect day!We had an absolutely amazing time, we couldn’t have asked for a better day. The
