We chose Ware Priory for our Wedding on the 26th October 2024. They were recommended by a friend, who had looked at the venue for their own wedding. We were supplied with an e-brochure showing multiple venue options, pricing and a selection of recommended catering partners. Kerry Mavris was our point of contact from start to finish and I can't thank her enough for her hard work and patience. As we live outside of the UK, things were a little tricky to organise, but Kerry and her team were excellent. We were both so pleased with how they carried out their work. As soon as we agreed to hold our wedding at Ware Priory, Kerry was quick to arrange a follow up meeting (which was carried out via Zoom), where she offered advice on which room to would be best for our wedding size, drinks packages, seating for the ceremony, the sit down meal and many other minor details. We followed this up by filling out the booking form to reserve the date. Kerry kept us informed of Wedding Fayre dates, one of which I went to with my Mum and my Sister. Kerry was in attendance and showed us the available rooms and the chapel. This allowed us to get a feel for each room and helped us make our decision. The Wedding Fayre was really helpful as I managed to book several of the service providers including the photographer, wedding celebrant and interior decorator. Closer to the wedding day, my fiancée and I met with Kerry and some of the suppliers in order firm up a schedule of the days events. This really helped to bring things together and put our minds at ease. It was clear that Ware Priory have wealth of experience when it comes to these type of events and this was invaluable throughout the whole process. They were very well organised and very accomodating when it came to last minute changes. The whole day was a roaring success and only made possible by the good work carried out by all the suppliers, of which Kerry and her team were an essential part. 5 stars for Ware Priory
