I come back every year as it’s the best form of festive therapy ever! Ruby is fantastic and always has the best selection of foliage and accessories to create the most gorgeous wreath. She is so friendly and welcoming. Couldn’t recommend more!

Beautiful flower crown workshop! Ruby was absolutely amazing when she came to run a flower crown workshop for my daughters 8th birthday party. She arrived well prepared and well resourced, providing fresh flowers and all the required equipment to inspire the girls to make stunning creations. She was friendly and professional. The girls were taught the skills and supported, by Ruby, to independently create their crowns with a step by step demonstration. I would highly recommend Ruby.

Ruby was incredible. I changed the vision at least three times completely (sorry Ruby!) and she hit the nail on the head everytime. Her range and knowledge was so impressive. Ruby is so calm and everything felt completely under control, which was ideal because we are living in Australia. She made our day with every detail that she worked with (we had our stationary, flowers, decor and table settings from Ruby). Our venue was a really big space, so it thought it was going to be so difficult to make it feel less empty but Ruby did it! Highly recommend Ruby! 🤍 thank you again

I attended one of Ruby's wreath making workshops this week. It was such a fantastic experience to put us in the festive spirit. Ruby provided clear step by step instructions, and was attentive to the group if we needed help. There was a great selection of quality foliage and decorative items to choose from. This allowed us to put our individual stamp on our wreaths. Looking forward to booking again next year !!

I cannot recommend Peacock and Bow enough - Katharine, Terry and the team are just the best. From start to finish everything was perfect - Katharine was so helpful, nothing was ever too much and she had so many great ideas! Katharine is so organised so everything ran so smoothly, and she was always at the end of the phone to answer all of our silly questions. Setting up the marquee and taking it down was so impressive to watch - so quick and professional and the whole team were lovely!! The team were so helpful in talking us through everything, and all was absolutely perfect on the day. The marquee itself was absolutely gorgeous and was everything we could’ve dreamed off. The beautiful round bar was epic and all of the details were just dreamy - from the shepherd’s crooks to the disco ball!! Honestly worth every penny and would recommend to everyone in a heartbeat!! Thank you so much Katharine & team! Xxx

Incredible! Olivia and I used peacock and bow for our wedding marquee and it was amazing! Everyone couldn’t believe the quality of the marquee and how beautiful It was! Katherine and team were brilliant from start to finish and the detail that goes into their work is incredible. Will use for any future events and recommend to anyone needing a marquee!

Katharine and Terry helped put together our dream of having our wedding in my parent's back garden in August 2022. Katherine was so amazing to work with and the marquee and furniture was absolutely beautiful. Couldn't recommend more - they were so quick to put a proposal together, very responsive to emails. And during the marquee put up / take down everything went really smoothly and the whole process was zero stress! Thank you so much to the whole Peacock & Bow team!

I can't thank Katharine and her team enough, their marquees are stunning and it absolutely made our wedding day. There is always something (apparently) that doesn't quite go to plan on a wedding day but this was not one of them, the whole experience was stress free, professional and a dream. I can't recommend Peacock and Bow enough, they won't disappoint. It was worth every penny and I would not hesitate to book them again for an event.

I was lucky enough to get an appointment to pre book my Christmas stock for 2024, I’m so glad I went, even although it was a 5 hour drive away, the showroom set up is fantastic lots to see, ordering was so simple, everyone I met was so accommodating, I felt that they really appreciated the effort we made to get there, the Christmas stock is fantastic, something to suit everyone’s taste and the warehouse too! I’ll definitely be adding to my order! 5*

Absolutely love the items I have bought from Gainsborough.. such good quality & value can’t wait to see more new stock which is always so tempting to buy

I just wanted to write a review after EXCEPTIONAL customer service I received from Gainsborough Giftware Ltd this week. A possible delay in picking and dispatching my order likely threatened the delivery arriving safely before I left the UK for a few weeks. I am a small client of Gainsborough but they kindly and professionally looked into my concerns and the result was the arrival of the delivery successfully before I left the country. I was made to feel that nothing was too much trouble. Companys that offer this level of care are few and far between nowadays. Thank you Gainsborough. I will be back for more stock.

Amazing range of Home & Giftware - the only place I buy from! Staff are always accommodating & helpful & the quality of goods is great - any issues (rarely) are always sorted swiftly.

We had the most magical wedding day at Bunny Hill, and can’t thank them enough! Bunny Hill was the only venue we viewed, as after having a look around it ticked every box for us - plenty of private on site accommodation, a private venue for a full weekend, stunningly presented even without added decor, the list goes on! We are so grateful to all the staff, but especially our co-ordinator Sallyanne - even our guests commented on how brilliant she was! On the day, I was relaxed and didn’t have to think about anything as Sallyanne and the Bunny Hill team handled it all, something I didn’t expect to feel as the bride! They personalise the whole experience for you, and all of the small details really make a huge difference (such as personalised cocktails!). I really hope one of our friends gets married here so we can live the day vicariously through them all over again! Thank you so much Sallyanne and the whole Bunny Hill team 🤍🤍

Our daughter was married at Bunny Hill on 4 April. We looked at several venues beforehand but Bunny Hill just blew us away….it really is in a league of its own. The venue is spacious and so well designed. The staff are all amazing…so friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble and our wedding planner Lucy Witton was brilliant. The food was absolutely first class, all of the guests remarked on how good it was. The bar was very well stocked and very comfortable. A big advantage of Bunny Hill is the accommodation…so clean and well furnished. Over 30 of the wedding party stayed over on the night before and the night of the wedding. I really can’t recommend this venue highly enough…you certainly won’t be disappointed and don’t even think about booking anywhere else until you’ve seen Bunny Hill for yourself!

Bunnyhill is nothing short of amazing! After our very first meeting with Paul 2 years ago, we knew Bunnyhill was the one and looked no further. Our wedding day was perfect and ran seamlessly from start to finish. The venue is so beautiful and has such a lovely feel about it with lots of different areas for guests to mingle. The organisation of the team is excellent and nothing was ever too much trouble running up to the big day and on the day it’s self. Sallyanne our co ordinator was amazing throughout the process and helped with every step of the way. We couldn’t have wished for a better wedding day and wish we could do it all over again! Love Annabelle & Shaun (14/09/24)

We had the most beautiful day on 14/11/24 and couldn't have asked for it to go anymore perfectly!! Charlotte and the team were amazing and helped in any way they could as well as the H&A team delivering delicious food including canapes that we were so happy we opted for. The venue is just perfect and exactly what we wanted so guests didn't have to travel and ceremony/reception was all in one place. The rooms made it even more special with a lovely private courtyard with a hot tub that I shared with a few of my bridesmaids the night before. Thank you for everything bunny hill xx

A Wedding Venue Like No Other… From the moment we drove up the driveway to Thicket Priory on our first visit, we knew we had found something truly special. Thicket is a wedding venue like no other – a stunningly beautiful location that also feels like home. It provided the most magical backdrop for our weekend celebration, having exclusive use of the venue for the entire weekend allowed us the time to create memories with our loved ones that we will cherish forever. Having separate spaces to host our guests on the Friday vs the wedding day on the Saturday was brilliant. Every single guest felt truly welcomed, with many commenting on how blown away they were by the venue. Becca and the whole team at Thicket are absolute superstars. Personable, creative and joyous - they ensured everything ran seamlessly behind the scenes. Nothing was too much trouble, and their attention to detail was second to none. From the planning process - where Becca was always on hand to guide us and answer questions - to the day itself, everything was utterly flawless. As our wedding fell on the 30th Nov / 1st Dec weekend, we also got to experience the added magic of Thicket's Christmas decorations. They were beautiful and added an extra layer of sparkle and magic. Each of the bedrooms felt luxurious - like they belong in a boutique hotel! Each has its own personality and quirks, which made assigning them to our guests a fun task. We cannot recommend Thicket Priory highly enough. The care, creativity, and passion of the team made our wedding weekend truly unforgettable. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for giving us a celebration beyond our wildest dreams. With all our love, Mr. & Mrs. Buller xx

Thicket priory made our dream wedding come true! The absolute perfect venue. From the moment of our first visit we knew it was the wedding venue for us. It has so much space for your closest family and friends to stay which was so important to us. The gardens are so beautiful and there are so many little touches that make the venue so perfect. The staff were just incredible and looked after us every step of the way. Every visit felt like visiting friends- chatting with a cup of tea! They answered all our silly questions and help plan every detail. They were very organised and were in constant communication with us leading up to the wedding. We loved every second of the weekend. All the staff were so kind and so helpful - they helped me enjoy every moment. Nothing was too much to ask. A special mention to Becks who was most incredible coordinator. From the moment we arrived she made us feel like VIPs. Our wedding was beautiful and everything ran seamlessly. She was so kind to my niece and even hit a present from the fairies for her to find. She helped prep her for walking down the aisle and teaching her to throw petals- this was a very special moment. All of our guests had a wonderful weekend and were made to feel so welcome. From the first meeting Thicket priory told us they wanted it to feel like our home for the weekend - and this is the perfect description of how it felt!! Thicket priory is the best wedding venue and we honestly couldn’t recommend it enough!

Thicket Priory was the only venue we saw and immediately knew we had to get married here! The house and grounds are absolutely stunning and the detail in the interior design is unbelievable. All the team made sure everything was perfect, special shoutout to Lily who made planning a breeze! Thank you so much we had our dream day ❤️

5 stars could never be enough for Thicket Priory! We had the pleasure of getting married here on the 21st of December 2024 and couldn't have dreamed of a more perfect day. From the moment we walked into Thicket Priory and met the incredible Anna, we felt right at home. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, the attention to detail is truly like nowhere else around. Our ceremony was in the onsite chapel, which is just breathtaking and such a special, intimate space. Our wedding breakfast and evening reception was then held in the stunning ballroom, filled with so much natural light, it really is the perfect space for a wedding. The rooms all have a unique character and every single room is just beautiful, our guests absolutely loved them and with 35 rooms onsite, it meant almost all our guests could stay over which was so important to us. Aside from all the above, what makes Thicket Priory SO special is the incredible team behind it. Anna, our wedding coordinator was just unbelievable, she made every meeting feel like we were catching up with a friend and made the whole process an absolute joy and completely stress free. She truly goes above and beyond for her couples and we could not have felt in safer hands, all our guests also commented on how amazing she was! She is just a dream. Also, a huge thanks to Lil and the rest of the team who also made our day run so seamlessly. Nothing was ever too much for them and the attention to detail behind the scenes was just impeccable! There really aren't enough words to express our gratitude to Thicket Priory, it truly is an incredibly special place, a venue like no other! Kasia & Jack xxx

Oaktree Farm was THE perfect venue for our wedding! We knew we wanted something unique and it absolutely didn't disappoint. The South African Stretch Tent was so different to wedding venues we'd been to in the past. It really helped us pull off the rustic, laid back, fun filled style we were hoping to achieve. As well, it was a beautiful location; right in the middle of the countryside (perfect for photos!). So many of our guests commented on how amazing the venue was! Unfortunately, living in the UK, rain is often a reality, and the weather wasn't on our side on the day! But it didn't seem to dampen the day at all. The tent remained fully water tight, warm, and there was so much space for our guests to enjoy the atmosphere. Dan and Natalie - the owners - were so great to work with. They were so flexible and accommodating; always going the extra mile to make things work for us. They were on hand at all times to make sure we were happy and they were just so friendly and kind. We loved working with them!

Oaktree farm is the wedding venue of dreams. We had our special day yesterday and it was the best day of our lives. Natalie, Dan and the team are incredible. They went above and beyond at every opportunity to support us. Nothing could have been more perfect. The venue is stunning and all guests were blown away by it all. Could not recommend them highly enough. 🖤🖤🖤

My (now) wife and I had the most incredible day at Oaktree Farm, every aspect our wedding with them was perfect. From the moment we emailed to ask for a viewing of the venue on a weekday evening, through to the day itself, the team were so accommodating and helpful, always on the other end of the phone or email with suggestions of how we might be able to incorporate our ideas into our big day. Their knowledge of how best to facilitate gorgeous weddings was incredible, combined with an extensive list of known and trusted vendors (but also open to new vendor). On the day itself the team were awesome, everyone was so nice, professional and helpful, and there was always someone on hand to make sure everything went smoothly (shout out to Natalie!). The venue itself is absolutely stunning, every one of our guest commented on how beautiful it was, and how the stretch tent was the perfect fit for a summer wedding. We really can't recommend Oaktree enough, with a beautiful backdrop that makes for the most amazing photos, and a small team that run the venue making your whole journey of wedding planning so much easier, you will not regret choosing them to host your most important day.

We got married at Oak Tree in August. It was a perfect day and the staff could not have done more for us to ensure that it was just that. Communication from going to arrange a viewing was spot on, and the amount of service and support given in the build up and on the day was amazing. It’s the most amazing venue. Every single one of our guests commented on how fantastic it was, how friendly and helpful the staff were and how stunning the set up was. It made for excellent photos and amazing memories. A very laid back, relaxed environment to have your big day with staff that make sure you have nothing to worry about when the day comes around. It’s left us trying to work out if we can think of excuses to have another celebration there!

Ambience York did the venue styling for our wedding at Bunny Hill and we can't recommend them enough. Laura and Hana were in touch a year before the wedding to talk through ideas and then kept regularly in touch in the weeks leading up to the wedding to make sure every detail was perfect. We had some ideas of how we wanted the venue to look and wanted to keep the styling simple and elegant with a white and green colour scheme - Laura and Hana took our vague ideas and made them a beautiful reality. Hana even went above and beyond to help us find a florist when we were struggling! The venue on the day looked absolutely stunning, we couldn't have asked for anything more perfect - thank you!

Laura & Hana at Ambience Venue Styling UK (York) have become 'Friends of Thicket Priory', working with them on internal events as well as recommending them to our wonderful couples and event hosts. Laura and Hana always have a smile on their faces, I think that's what helps us get along well as we're such a smiley bunch too! From tables plans and place names, to the amazingly beautiful chair sashes we love seeing the 'Ambience Twist' throughout the venue!

Rating: 5 / 5

We'd like to thank Ambience for everything they've done for our special day. They styled the venue so beautifully, all our guests loved it! They even laid out my homemade centrepieces when they didn't have to, it's very much appreciated and it helped reduce my worries and stress for setting up our other bits and bobs. To Hana and the team, we really did love what you guys did to the place and it will forever be one of our happiest memories.

We got married at Carlton Towers in February and chose Ambience as our stylists. The little details that they added finished our decoration off perfectly. All our guests said how magical our wedding looked and we couldn't have achieved this without Ambience. Thank you so much for making our wedding day that extra bit special, love Ella and Craig

Lovely place we visited for valentines day in the vaults, it was a perfect setting with champaign and a 3 course meal, with a violinist playing in the background throughout, would highly recommend this place for a perfect valentines night, book your tickets early though!

We had a fabulous wedding at Hirst Priory and couldn't have asked for more. It was organised, professional, bespoke, what we wanted and flexible! We were able to enjoy the vaults and outside in March which was amazing. We would recommend Hirst Priory to anyone looking for somewhere special. Thank you Hazel & Team!

Rating: 5 / 5

As a wedding photographer whenever you pull up at Hirst Priory you know you are in for a wonderful day run by Hazel and her amazing team. Whether it be an outdoor woodland wedding or a more formal indoor ceremony Hirst Priory has it all covered. The newly renovated bedrooms are also possibly the best we have ever seen at a Wedding Venue and provide a perfect setting to start the day during bridal prep. We cannot recommend Hirst Priory highly enough, quite simply one of the best venues around

Rating: 4 / 5

Very nice location and drinks are reasonably priced. One 'MAJOR' fault is that there is no exterior lighting from the entrance door and could cause anybody to fall walking back to the car park in the evening......needs addressing!
