Testimonials

"I would gladly recommend Dodmoor House to anyone as I know the quality of service is - and will remain - outstanding. They made our day more memorable than I could have imagined. I can honestly say I think they've nailed it... there really isn't anything they could have done better – and I’m usually good at finding something! They have managed to create an overwhelmingly warm & friendly atmosphere that so many of my guests commented on and is something you simply cannot buy! The overall management of the day also exceeded all my expectations, not only because the day ran so smoothly but also because I really didn't have to worry about one single thing - apart from having a good time!"
Kat and Craig
"Although the weather didn’t smile on us, Dodmoor House has been so beautifully renovated that it didn’t affect the day in the slightest. The barns are so light and airy that we barely noticed the rain. Their flexibility in changing where to serve the champagne reception and where my bridesmaids and I were to enter the Catesby Barn at the last minute demonstrated their professionalism and ability to copy with any eventuality. I truly thank them for always smiling and never making us feel that anything was too much trouble. From initial consultation through to the care on the day, the service at Dodmoor House was exemplary."
Helen and Tim
"For us, it was all about the personal touch. When we looked round, it wasn't a meet-and-greet for convenience of a business, but a couple genuinely interested in our day. The price took me back at first but when I thought about it and what you get - the great venue plus their working knowledge of the industry and great personal service - I would have paid more for such a beautiful setting. They were always on hand on the day for any questions, even to the point of allowing us to get our best man's present delivered to their house, which they also very kindly wrapped for us! If I had to sum up their dedication and service, I'd say 11 out of 10."
Emma and Graham
"You can’t put a price on the confidence that Mark and Louise gave us in the run-up to the wedding. Their personal service and attention to detail alone would be worth the fee. There is nowhere else like Dodmoor in Northamptonshire and, since it is their own business run from their house, I get the impression that they really care about every wedding they hold."
Jo and Darren
"At our age, many friends and family are getting married and we really don't know any other bride and groom who have had such a positive experience with their reception venue as we did. The 'nothing is too much trouble' approach sets Dodmoor House apart from its counterparts. It has captured a corner of the market that doesn't exist in the wedding industry - a beautiful venue with personalised first-class service at a very reasonable price."
Vikki and Tom
"The day was fantastic from start to finish. It was great to hand everything over to Claire the day before and not have to worry. In the run up to the wedding, they highlighted everything that we hadn’t thought of and this really helped us to get organized. The venue is amazing and all of our guests loved it just as much as we did."
Hannah and Tim
"From the moment I saw the website I knew that there could be no other place we could possibly get married, and it only took one visit to convince us that there was no point in viewing any other venues. All the support and assistance you gave in the organising was so appreciated and helped us to relax in the comfort that nothing had been overlooked. All of the guests commented on the professional but personal touch all of the staff at Dodmoor gave. We had the most wonderful day and we wish we could do it all over again."
Stephanie and Stephen
"We are still having compliments on how amazing our day was. Everything was exceptionally clean and tidy and felt really luxurious. I really appreciated the flexibility that you showed me when I came to set up earlier than expected and allowed us to store the bridesmaids’ dresses in the house on the spare bed! Nothing was too much trouble and we would have no hesitation in recommending Dodmoor to other couples."
Kate and Tom
"It was a wonderful day, everything was perfect, the weather, the venue, the food, it was like a fairytale. Thank you again for all your hard work, which eased the day along perfectly."

We wish you all the success you deserve in making Dodmoor the number one venue in Northamptonshire (and beyond!)"
Kate and Matt
"We would like to thank you both for all you did to make Elizabeth and Phillip’s superb wedding reception so enjoyable. They both commented that the day turned out to be their dream wedding and your venue truly gave us the perfect setting. I heard numerous guests commenting on how delightful they found Dodmoor House and how beautifully you have created a stylish yet warm and friendly atmosphere. From the moment we arrived until the very end, you gave us a very personal and efficient service. We could not have wished you to be more attentive and friendly. You are sure to do extremely well with such commitment, kindness and attention to detail. Many thanks indeed."
Nicola (mother of the bride)
"Mark and Louise at Dodmoor are like having your own personal wedding planners, with a fantastically beautiful venue thrown in. They worked tirelessly before and on the day to ensure everything went to plan. The venue was loved by all our guests, as was the professional attitude shown by all the staff. We would fully recommend Dodmoor House as your wedding venue."
Joanne and Chris
"The day could not have run any smoother. The venue looked fantastic - everyone was in awe, in fact they are all still talking about it. We loved it all! In fact we loved it so much we may come back for one of our anniversaries."

Chris and Jo
"We actually had a faultless and what can only be described as stunning day. We could not fault any part of it from the moment we arrived to the moment we left the venue the following morning."
Paul and Phil
"The friendly professionalism and attention to detail from Mark and Louise helped to create the perfect day that we will never forget. Their discreet and efficient attitude meant that I could enjoy the day, happy in the knowledge that everything was taken care of. We can't recommend this venue enough."
Nikki and Phil
"The venue and level of service we received were unsurpassable in our opinion and everything we could have wished for and more. Thank you so much for helping to make our day perfect in every way. The service at Dodmoor was fantastic, the attention to detail was amazing, we couldn’t have wished for more. It was clear that you had everything under control at all times and were able to easily adapt when necessary."
Rebecca and Michael
"You can't put a price on the confidence that Mark and Louise gave us in the run-up to the wedding. Their personal service and attention to detail alone would be worth the fee.

Jo and Darren
"We would all like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your success has been hard earned but, believe me, no praise can ever be enough for helping to give our family and friends such a wonderful day. We couldn't believe the value for money. Everyone has commented on the superb venue, food and that the whole day was a magical experience! "
Dave and Shirley Johnson, parents of Amy, who married Alexander
"Both Mark and Louise went above and beyond what I expected. Mark helped direct us with how the day should be run and made suggestions on extras we could add to make the day Amazing – the service exceeded my expectations. Everything ran smoothly – even with the rain pouring down as we all arrived! Friends and family all commented on the venue and how well the day was being organised."
Liz and Kai
"Thank you so much for everything you did to make our wedding day amazing. Your attention to detail and help with everything from assembling cake stands to finding ibuprofen for Jon went above and beyond the call of duty - so many thanks. We had the most amazing day and are delighted that we chose Dodmoor House. "
Liz and Jon
"George and I had the most amazing day; it was the wedding we dreamed of. After the worst summer weather for 50 years even the sun joined us for the day. The best way of describing it would be to ask; if I could change any of it, would I? No, not a single thing. It was perfect. Mark, Louise and Claire did an excellent job on the day; I barely noticed they were there. Everything went very smoothly, there was no pressure or rush and the day just flowed into the evening and late into the night. You also gave us the space and freedom to decorate and get things ready in the way that we wanted. We really felt like it was our place, just for the day."
Lucy and George
"The Open Day was fantastic, the music, the flowers, everything was perfect. You could imagine your special day immediately. We searched for wedding venues in the area on the internet and your launch party came up so we thought we would come along. The whole atmosphere and everything sold us on the place immediately. All of our guests had an amazing time, they have all commented how great the venue was and what a special experience too. The layout of the venue works perfectly for a party as there are several areas for people to sit, eat, drink and chat in the barns, party the night away, watch people dance and have fun on the balcony above or just wander around the courtyard. You couldn’t cater better for all of the different personalities that you get at a wedding!"
Danielle and Damien
"We found Dodmoor extremely welcoming. We were sold on the place within the first five minutes. The wedding day was awesome, everything went very very smoothly... Amazing bridal suite and it was lovely having breakfast out in the courtyard area in the sun. Everything was perfect. Seriously, there was nothing that could be improved."
Liz and Jimi
"I would gladly recommend you to anyone as I know the quality of service is and will remain outstanding. Thank you so much for making our day more memorable than I could have imagined. I can honestly say I think you've nailed it... there really isn't anything you could have done better - and I'm usually good at finding something! The overall management of the day also exceeded all my expectations, not only because the day ran so smoothly but also because I really didn't have to worry about one single thing except from having a good time. You seemed to have thought of everything. This is probably down to good planning and great hindsight! "
Kathryn and Craig
"You gave us great guidance and good advice, and took a lot of the stress out of planning the wedding. There was a great set-up for the evening party - with the dancing barn, bar, courtyard and quiet barn - all had their own atmosphere but were all very much part of the wedding. You were professional, friendly and immensely helpful. Nothing was too much to ask. Our wedding felt special and important. Thank you so much. We have had nothing but great comments about the venue and staff. The day was so organised, everyone knew what they were doing and did it so well. We were not needed to do anything on the day but enjoy ourselves. "
Keely and Jon-Paul
"Being able to hand it all over to you the Tuesday before allowed us to enjoy the whole experience. I didn't have the stress a lot of brides talk about as we had full confidence in Dodmoor to have it all in hand and you did."
Sarah and Tom
"It was a wonderful day, everything was perfect, the weather, the venue, the food, it was like a fairytale. Thank you again for all your hard work, which eased the day along perfectly."
Marion, mother of Polly, who married Matt
