WHY DID YOU CHOOSE PYLEWELL?
We were looking for a venue in and around the New Forest as Hannah grew up in Lymington. The first Google search brought up Pylewell Park and we never looked back. There was truly no other venue that we even considered or visited. Pylewell was perfect for us and upon our first visit we booked our date.
Pylewell ticked every single box: the breathtaking house and gardens, the amazing guest capacity, the chance to host a whole weekend of celebrations, an incredible marquee already in place, and a top-tier wedding team ready to help. Plus, it held such sentimental value for us. It was a total no-brainer!
TELL US ABOUT YOUR MOST MEMORABLE PART OF YOUR WEDDING DAY?
Can we say all of it? The whole day was epic.
The ‘I DOs’, the first look of the Pavilion, the food (shout out to Red Herring!!), the first dance and dance floor more and any time we got to spend the two of us where we could take a moment to take it all in.
TELL US YOUR VISION FOR THE MARQUEE AND STYLING? DID IT LIVE UP TO YOUR EXPECTATIONS?
It didn’t just live up to our vision—it completely blew it out of the water! Our ideas evolved over time, but we landed on a modern twist on classic elegance. Blue hydrangeas were our must-have, and Nudo absolutely nailed it!
The whole process was seamless thanks to an incredible team of suppliers who’d worked together before—Red Herring Catering, Nudo Blooms, Paper Stories Co., and of course, the amazing Pylewell crew. It all came together beautifully, and we couldn’t have been happier!
HAVE YOU GOT ANY FEEDBACK ABOUT THE PYLEWELL TEAM? WE WOULD SO LOVE TO HEAR IT.
Absolutely nothing but glowing praise! The Pylewell team made us feel so supported from start to finish.
It gave us so much peace of mind knowing there was a calm, experienced, and friendly team guiding us through every moment of the planning process and keeping everything running smoothly over the weekend. We felt completely looked after—and that made all the difference.
WHATS YOUR TOP TIP FOR ANY FUTURE PYLEWELL COUPLE?
Trust your suppliers—they know their stuff and have so much helpful advice to share.
Keep it simple—Pylewell already has that wow-factor built in, so you really don’t need to overdo it.
And most importantly? Enjoy the journey! Everything will come together beautifully—just as it’s meant to.
A MASSIVE thank you for making our wedding weekend absolutely magical. Hanni and I couldn’t be more thrilled that we chose Pylewell – it was truly the perfect place for us.
Obviously, the house, gardens and Pavilion were breathtaking all weekend (we still can’t believe how lucky we were with the weather) – but it was you all who made it the perfect choice. Your warmth, professionalism and support made all the difference!
You kept us calm, made everything run like clockwork, and helped create a weekend our guests haven’t stopped talking about. Huge shout-out to the amazing breakfast crew too – everyone loved it!
We have no doubt we’ll be back at Pylewell again – it already holds such a special place in our hearts.
