Your Perfect Hampshire Wedding

We had the most incredible wedding day! Ellena, Lauren and the rest of the staff were fantastic; everything was so beautifully organised. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect day!

We genuinely had the most incredible wedding day! From the first booking after our meeting with Ellena, the whole process has been incredibly easy. Communicating with Ellena was so effortless – she kept us updated throughout, answered all of our questions, and made sure everything was organised correctly. On our wedding day, it was handed over to Ellena and the team, who were faultless! Our day was absolutely perfect; all of the timing worked well, food and service throughout was also incredible. We genuinely could not have asked for anything more – it was perfect beyond belief. Thank you to all who were involved!

We just want to say a massive thank you to you and the whole team at Old Thorns who helped make our special day as amazing as it was. We had the most amazing day celebrating, and Eleanor is an absolute credit to your team. From start to finish, she ensured everything ran smoothly and kept us up to date with everything going on. Again, thank you so much for helping towards our special day! We will be back at Old Thorns again soon to celebrate!

Our Wedding at Old Thorns was magical- it was the perfect day, and we could not have asked for anything more. The minute we booked, we were met with smiles, organisation and a team going above and beyond- no question from us was ever too much. We had the most stress-free 2 years planning as we felt so supported by the wedding team at Old Thorns. The wedding was amazing value for money, and the quality of the wedding and what was included was above what we could have asked for. On the wedding day, the operations team were incredible; they were the heart of everything they did, and they created what was a day of a lifetime and one we will never forget! Old Thorns will always have a special place in our hearts, and although we won’t be able to get married all over again, we will continue to pop back to relive our special day as everyone is always so kind! Thank you, Old Thorns, for everything!!

Our day was so perfect, and it really couldn’t have been any better. It was so relaxed, and our guests and us had a wonderful time. The only negative was that it went so quickly. The day after, once all of our guests had left, I had an emotional moment because I was gutted that it was over.

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue than Old Thorns for our wedding. From the moment we first visited, we knew it was the right place for us—not only because of how stunning the Gatsby Ballroom looked, but also because of the excellent value offered by their packages, with thoughtful extras like a DJ and decorations included, which felt like a huge bonus.

The entire experience, from planning through to the big day, exceeded all our expectations. The team were exceptional—professional, friendly, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything was just right. Their support throughout the planning process made everything feel so easy and stress-free, and on the day itself they ensured everything ran seamlessly. The venue itself is beautiful, and we especially loved having the golf course as a backdrop for our photos—it made for some truly special moments that we’ll treasure forever. Our guests were so impressed with the facilities, and we received so many compliments about the setting, the atmosphere, and especially the rooms, which were comfortable and beautifully presented.

The food was another highlight of the day, with many of our guests commenting on how much they enjoyed it. It really helped make the whole experience feel extra special. Overall, we are so grateful to the team at Old Thorns for making our wedding day truly unforgettable. We would wholeheartedly recommend this venue to any couple looking for a beautiful setting, great value, and a team they can completely trust.

You have made my wedding planning experience such a smooth experience. Me asking to change/add things so very last minute was never an issue, and I’m truly grateful for how helpful you and the whole team have been. My experience at Old Thorns was more than I could have ever imagined; the staff and the whole wedding team couldn’t do enough to make sure our big day was nothing short of perfect, and that’s exactly what it was…Perfect!!  They made the whole day flowed so smoothly. I honestly can’t thank the whole hotel & Wedding team enough for everything they done for us. I keep saying it, but i honestly can’t thank you all enough. I’m so unbelievably sad it’s all over, but I couldn’t have asked for a better venue or a better team to have dealt with.

From the very beginning right through to the end of the day, we felt so well looked after. The organisation was amazing, communication was always quick and clear, and every member of staff was absolutely lovely, making us feel completely comfortable and at ease.

Everything ran so smoothly and the staff were all on top form. Our coordinator for the day went above and beyond to make sure that everything went to plan and checked in with us at multiple points throughout the day.

Everything was perfect – more than we could have expected, and we cant put into words how thankful we are! Everything asked for was delivered, and nothing seemed too much for anyone! The staff were amazing, so attentive and made myself and Lincoln feel relaxed!

The whole team at Old Thorns were just amazing, no request, query or just our general randomness was too much for them! Everyone was amazingly professional, so personable and genuinely came across as loving what they do. The entire team played a massive part in making our day so perfect.

The team at Old Thorns leave no stone unturned in helping you plan your wedding, and nothing is ever too much trouble for them! Our wedding was even more magical than we had imagined, and we will be forever grateful to the fantastic team at Old Thorns.
