What They Say

  • Terry & Nicky

    We booked Glenmore House for our wedding (March 2020). We knew instantly when we walked in that this is where we wanted to get married, especially after meeting Faye and her team. I cannot recommend Glenmore House highly enough. Unfortunately we could not have the wedding we originally planned due to exceptional circumstances (coronavirus pandemic) However, Faye and her team were so supportive and did everything they could possibly do to give us a memorable and fantastic wedding day. We are so grateful to Faye & the MD for ensuring that our special day could still go ahead and for keeping our spirits up. As soon as we are able to we will be booking Glenmore House again to have the wedding reception that we originally planned with all our friends and family that were unfortunately unable to attend due to the circumstances. Lastly Faye thank you so much, for your calmness, humour, efficiency, advice, help and for being an exceptional person. With warmest regards, Terry & Nicky Butler
  • Kim & Jackie

    Faye, Jackie and I just wanted to thank you and your team for a fantastic day on the 29th November it could not have gone better and sorry I didn’t get to thank you in person on the Sunday when I came to settle the bar bill but understandably after such a late night you deserved a little lye in. Everyone commented on how wonderful Glenmore House was from the food down to the staff so we cannot thank you enough for making it a day that Jackie and I will both never forget for the rest of our lives. We cannot thank you enough for everything that you did for us. Take care……..and thank you Kim and Jackie
  • Sammy & Oz

    If I could give more points - I would. Faye and the team were absolutely amazing, and have gone beyond our expectations of our wedding. We are so happy that we chose our wedding at the Glenmore house, it was welcoming, special and so unique mainly because of the warm attitude and Faye’s amazing organisational skills (especially considering some traditions that we had). We would not change anything for our wedding. Glenmore House is also so beautiful and also reasonably priced for London. We had amazing feedback about the staff, food, and design. We definitely recommend Faye for any events - you’ll be in safe hands. Thank you so much.
  • Mandie Duffin

    Just had our Daughter’s wedding here, absolutely amazing venue, with fantastic staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The wedding organisers, Freya & Faye, both a credit to Glenmore House. We booked venue 18 months in advance, they answered all our questions & always replied to emails, they were a pleasure to deal with. There is No charge to hire the venue, which is great now days, and even better, the bar is normal prices, not over-inflated hotel prices. The food was delicious, & service first class. The Manager Robert & one of the chefs Barry even gave Bride, Groom & us a lift over to hotel because it was raining. We would recommend Glenmore House to anyone thinking of getting married, or looking for a venue that will certainly impress family & friends. If you have a date in mind book early so you're not disappointed. Thank you again for making a special day, even more special. The Chamberlains & The Duffins.
  • Mrs Barratt

    Thank you to all the Glenmore House Team for your care, consideration and efficiency which combined to produce such a happy and successful celebration for our daughter jennifer and her new husband Paddy on January 19th. From setting up prior to the wedding, throughout the whole event until staggering home time - the bar prices are amazing! - and not forgetting the help, the following morning, in seraching for the lost suit jacket, another family member picked it up and returned it! every single member of the team displayed the same efficiency and courtesy at every level. No one person stood out, you all did. Further, everybody agreed that the food and wine were superb. It was a truly memorable day. Thank You Glenmore House is brilliant as are their staff.
  • Magda & Mark Pettman

    I would like to thank Faye, Robbie and everyone at Glenmore House for the most amazing day ever. It was a very stressful day from the beginning, I was running late but they stayed calm and collected, led me to the registrar interview and walked through every minute of the ceremony. Faye was always asking if everything was ok, but it was more than ok, it was perfect. I could not praise the chef enough, the food was a work of art, it looked beautiful and it tasted even better. I mean, it was like eating in a Michelin star restaurant, fantastic service and great looking and tasting food. Everything went smoothly, and the day was amazing. Robbie even drove my husband’s parents to the hotel, even though they were staying just down the road, that’s how thoughtful they are. Massive thank you to John Rahim, Glenmore’s recommended photographer. He was there from the beginning, was very calm and great at crowd control. I cannot wait to see the photos. Another massive thank you goes to John Brewer, venue’s photographer, who was absolutely amazing. Created a fantastic atmosphere during the meal with his background music. He played great songs, everyone loved the music, he also played every single song that our guests requested. Everything was just perfect and I could not recommend Glenmore House, John Rahim and John Brewer more. I would most definitely book Glenmore House, John Rahim and John Brewer for my next wedding 😉
  • Lizzie & Neil

    Faye and her team did such an amazing job with our wedding! Originally booked for April 2020 we had to postpone to October 2020. We decided to go ahead with the restrictions of 15 people and it’s as a beautiful day. The value for money was excellent and Faye and her team made it all flow so beautifully. I can’t thank them enough for helping us through the postponement and rebooking process.
  • Katherine and Ian Avery

    Freya and the team at Glenmore were brilliant!! Right from the moment we enquired they did everything they could to accommodate our requests and offered us some great ideas, like adding mini mince pies to our canapés and where to put candles in the bar. Their two main rooms are very different in style and I was a little worried about this to begin with but actually they perfectly reflected the character of the building. The main Elizabethan suite is perfect for the dinner (it's so beautiful) then the bar area suites the more fun side of weddings. Their policy of returning the cost of any unopened bottles of wine was great as we had about 5 unopened in the end. The value of Glenmore House as a venue was amazing, especially as the quality of service was never compromised and the food was brilliant. Our guests absolutely loved the food and I know they kept the bar staff busy, but no drink was too hard to accommodate. The staff were always friendly and on the day went out of their way to ensure my husband and I were well looked after. We had our own tray of canapés and personalised desserts!! With our 5th December wedding, Glenmore was perfect as we didn't really need any outdoor space – however Claremont Gardens opposite worked our great for our main photos. DJ John (recommended by Glenmore) - was great and accommodated almost all our requests (we had 60 as opposed to 40!). We didn't have to worry about any music during the reception. He gave us a CD at the end with all our tracks which we've been continuously playing since. This was so lovely! So to sum Glenmore House weddings can be everything you want and still be affordable!
  • Martyn and Becky

    We held our wedding reception at Glenmore house on the 23/05/15. Faye was our coordinator. From start to finish she was helpful, professional, friendly and reliable at all times , she really understood what we wanted from our day and we got everything and more we could have wished for. Our guests were overwhelmed by the high standard of food and the service received from all members of staff on the day. The room set up looked stunning, We could not have been happier with our choice, our day was amazing thank you so much Faye and the team, Martyn and Becky
  • Jen and Paddy

    Finding an affordable reception venue in the London area is very difficult so when we visited Glenmore House we couldn't believe our luck. It was exactly what we were looking for and significantly cheaper than anywhere else we'd looked at. Freya was extremely helpful from our first visit and all staff on the day (and the day after) were friendly and welcoming, accommodating individual requests without fuss. When snow prevented a number of our guests attending they happily removed a table and adjusted the seating plan when we informed them on arrival at the reception. They also sorted out last minute food requests without any fuss. The wide range of wines they offer are reasonably priced and offered on a sale or return basis and the bar choice is extensive and priced lower than most pubs. Choosing our menu from the wide range of dishes available was difficult but the included tasting definitely helped! The portions are extremely generous and several people have told us it was the best food they’ve had at a wedding. We can’t thank Glenmore House staff enough for helping us hold a brilliant reception; we even got a lift to our hotel from one of the managers to top it off!
  • Emma & Jamie

    We had the most wonderful wedding day at Glenmore House. Faye and her team were amazing from the day we booked a viewing. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We fell in love with the venue straight away, the ceremony room was perfect with two gorgeous stain glass windows and the Elizabethan suite was so magical on its own that all we needed was table decorations. We feel so lucky that we were able to find such a gem of a venue for such a reasonable price. We had the most perfect day and the team ensured everything went to plan and completely took the stress of the day away from us. The food was delicious and the staff were outstanding. We couldn't have asked for more. Thank you so much. xxx
  • Greg & Emma

    What an amazing day and it was all down to the staff and Freya. Freya was remarkable, really professional and approachable. My family are still talking about are amazing day and the staff at Glenmore House. John the referred DJ knew exactly what we wanted and delivered. The food was delicious. you made are day - THANK YOU so much
  • Lucy

    We had our wedding at Glenmore house in October 2021, which was postponed from 2020. Faye was great throughout the whole process, from initial booking and rescheduling! They were very accommodating and flexible with any requests and ideas we had, and the food was fantastic! The day itself ran smoothly and I didn't have to worry about a thing. Cost wise Glenmore is excellent value for money, the serving and bar staff were excellent, as was the recommended DJ. Our guests were impressed with the food, staff and venue, and I will absolutely be recommending Glenmore House to engaged friends, and will definitely be back for our next event!
  • Francesca & Daniel Parker

    We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful place to get married and have our reception here. Freya and her team were so helpful and accommodating, everything went without any hiccups. The location was fab, my pics look lovely in the garden opposite. So many people commented a about how delicious the food was, I would defo recommend this to all my friends. Thanks so much 🙂 xx
  • Jennah & Michael

    We are beyond thrilled with the incredible job Faye and her team did with our wedding. From cocktail hour to the end of the night, they were flawless. Wedding planning can obviously be a stressful time, but Faye was an absolute gem to work with. We so appreciated her calm, upbeat attitude throughout the process, not to mention her endless patience with our hemming, hawing, and constant readjusting of details in the final weeks. Even our guests commented to us how great Faye was, and how friendly and helpful every member of the staff was throughout the night. From the welcome canapes to dinner, not to mention the ridiculously awesome spread for the evening snack, our guests were stuffed to the max with delicious food. And the venue......it's so beautifully presented and we loved having the bar area separate from the main hall as it allowed people to the freedom to boogie on down or drink and chat without shouting to be heard. My husband and I had high hopes when we picked Glenmore House as our venue, but what we got in the end far surpassed what we dreamed of (we really cannot stress enough just what an incredible deal Glenmore House is for everything that you get). When we woke up the morning after, we were ready to plan another wedding just so we could enjoy another night like that. We're pretty determined to find something else to celebrate there soon.
  • Tony Frier (Father of the Bride)

    We really couldn’t have dreamed of a more wonderful day than the one Glenmore House helped to provide. From the very first contact they were professional, knowledgeable, helpful, and simply couldn’t do enough to ensure the day went smoothly. We had some fairly unique requests but they took them on board and delivered the perfect day. They even managed to hold off the rain until after the photos were taken! We’d looked at quite a few alternatives but Glenmore House just ticked all our boxes for being stylish, affordable and flexible. Huge thanks to Faye and her colleagues for providing such a memorable day.
  • Nicola & Sam

    My new hubby and I got married here on Saturday 21st April 2018 and had the best time ever! Our guests loved it, and the food and bar were a massive hit with everyone! Nothing was too much for Faye and her team and the day went without a hitch! They made our day amazingly special and made us feel like we were top of their priorities! Thank you so much to Faye and everyone at Glenmore for everything! You are all a credit to Glenmore House!

    "Would like to thank the team at Glenmore for everything they did to make my wedding special. We finally got married last summer Saturday 2nd July after postponing a few times beforehand due to Covid. After walking into the Elizabethan room on our first viewing, me and my husband knew at that moment this was the venue to get married in. The day was so perfect with the help of Faye and Robert and their staff. Faye is so professional at doing her job and was so accommodating with everything I wanted and asked for. The food and drink was a 10 out of 10. Staff always on point when filling up your drinks. Was really the best day EVER. Would do it again in a heart beat (but maybe not walking down the aisle again!). Would 1000% recommend Glenmore House as a wedding venue. Thanks again Lauren and Calum Heath xxx "
