“Jade and I got married at your venue on Saturday and we just wanted to make sure that the hard work of your team was recognised and one of the main reasons that we, and our guests had such a magical day.

From the start (we booked back in Jan/Feb 2024) – Debbie has been absolutely brilliant. Her attention to detail and constant communication throughout the process has made the whole experience so easy for us and I cannot speak any higher of her. She is fantastic at what she does and even in the days before and on the day itself was all over every fine detail. Please pass on our thanks officially (we have done also).

 The staff on the day were also a credit to the school, from the students helping out to all of the other staff that made the day happen. A special thanks goes to whoever was in charge of the dinner service (tall gentleman) who was in constant communication with me about the changing timeline and cocktails/band falling behind schedule due to the dinner service (my speech being the problem!).

The venue is such a fantastic venue to host a wedding, and it was made even better by the service, food and professionalism of your team.

Thank you for hosting such a perfect day for us.”

“We honestly can’t thank you enough for everything you did to make our wedding day so memorable. The food and service were absolutely impeccable – we’ve had countless guests tell us how beautiful the food was, and we couldn’t agree more.

Everything ran so seamlessly and was so well organised that we never had to ask a single question – it all just happened, effortlessly. That level of professionalism and care did not go unnoticed, and we are so grateful.

It was also such a joy to see so many familiar faces from nearly a decade ago, alongside new ones.
Thank you again for helping make our day so perfect.”

“Me and Stuart would like to say a huge thank you to Debbie and the team at Battle Abbey. Our wedding day was perfect and we could not have asked for better. Our guests repeatedly commented on how breathtaking the venue was and we have such amazing memories from the day with them to cherish forever. We love our history and this was the perfect location, not only for the unbelievable structures, but for the stunning setting and surroundings that Battle Abbey encompasses. Every inch of the grounds are just beautiful and you could not ask for a more perfect wedding venue. The location was our first choice and on visiting and meeting with Debbie there was not a doubt in our minds that this was THE venue.
We are so grateful to Debbie for co-ordinating the entire day which took a huge amount of pressure off of us as the Bride and Groom! We had our wedding in very good hands and I cannot recommend Debbie and the staff enough. They were all so polite and accommodating to our guests and were so friendly and helpful when approached. There is a real camaraderie amongst them and it was such a pleasure to be around. The wonderful staff combined with the incredible venue all added to the days atmosphere of just pure love and joy.
We feel so lucky to be able to say we got married at Battle Abbey – the perfect choice. Thank you again for everything.”

“Where to begin…
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for organising and facilitating the most special day of our lives. The care and attention, not to mention essential sense of humour(!) was simply unrivalled.
Battle Abbey was the first wedding venue we viewed and we knew that after our first visit and meeting you that this would be the place for us – all other viewings cancelled!
All of our guests (apart from a handful) travelled to East Sussex for the wedding and we have received nothing but genuine praise for the day. What a venue, what service, what wonderful staff! We really couldn’t have asked for more.
Thank you for planning every detail and making complicated logistics with vendors and musicians entirely seamless. Everything was dealt with with such elegance and finesse, but with a deeply friendly quality – both myself, Christopher and our guests were made feel so special. Thank you.
We received our official wedding photographs recently and it is so wonderful to see so many moments captured. Please let us know if you would like to use any for marketing purposes.
Again, thank you for everything – on a personal note, I look forward to keeping to touch as friends.”

“There are literally no words to express our gratitude to you and your amazing team for everything you did for us on our wedding day.

Your staff are kind, fun and hardworking and the general feedback from our guests was that the staff made the day perfect.

Please can you let them all know how unforgettable they made our wedding day and how we wish them all well for the future. And, of course, we would not have had such a wonderful day without you. You made us feel at ease throughout the whole process and we would not have been as calm on the day without you by our side.

You run a military operation to absolute perfection and you can see how talented you are at your job. The best part was that you treated us like family. The world would be a better place if it was filled with Debbie’s. We will miss you greatly and are heartbroken our time with you has come to an end.

We wish you all the best in life and we will never ever forget you and what you did for us.

Thank you for giving us the best day of our lives!

All our love, forever, Olivia and Charlie xx
