Pauntley Court - Gloucester

We hoped for a beautiful intimate Christmas wedding and Pauntley Court far surpassed our expectations. The venue and grounds are beyond stunning and Melissa, Holly (our wedding coordinator) and Rachel (the housekeeper) supported throughout the planning stage and on the day to make it a truly magical day. The love given to Pauntley by its owners and staff is clear and it 100% reflected into our special day

Melissa and team, we can’t thank you enough for the privilege of celebrating our wedding at your beautiful family home. The memories we made there with our loved ones we’ll carry with us forever. Pauntley is such a special place, and you and your team went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. We’re so, so grateful – thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Melissa, thank you so much for sharing your wonderful home and allowing us to get married in such a historic and magical place. We are so grateful to you, Mel, and the whole team for looking after us so well and making our day so special. Nothing was too much trouble and you made every aspect of our day perfect and flawless. I’m so glad we chose Pauntley Court for a day we will never forget.

I absolutely loved discovering Pauntley Court to photograph a surprise proposal setup there by The Cotswold Proposal Planners. It was stunning!! The lake is beautiful and the pagoda is so cute. The setup looked incredible and there were so many places to walk with my couple after their engagement. We went up to the gardens and shot in front of the 'Pink House', which looked absolutely beautiful. I can imagine a white wedding dress standing out so well in front of the pink. The florals were gorgeous and the hedgerows were immaculate - I really felt so lucky to have been here! My couple decided to have a little ride in the boat after our walk and the photos turned out beautifully. I am crossing my fingers to be back here again soon!

Our wedding weekend at Pauntley Court was perfect in every way. We chose Pauntley as the house itself is beautiful, the interior has been restored and decorated to the highest standard and still feels super homely and comfortable. On top of this the surrounding grounds are stunning, with multiple areas filled with trees, flowers and neatly trimmed hedges to explore, it made the perfect backdrop to our wedding ceremony and reception!

Having exclusive use of the venue for 3 days, and hiring the housekeeper Rachel to help throughout, enabled us to truly relax and make the most of the wedding weekend with our friends and family. The staff at Pauntley went above and beyond to help in any way they could, both in preparation and throughout the wedding itself, and the teams warm presence really made the weekend extra special - we can't recommend Pauntley Court enough

If you are looking for an intimate wedding venue, I don’t think you can do better than the location and the team at Pauntley Court. The setting is superb, highly photogenic inside and out, and an amazing place to spend a few days. The attention to detail in the house is outstanding, whether in the formal rooms or the kitchen, where we found everything could possibly need (and a lot more!). From the outset we were extremely well looked after by Melissa and the team, and I can honestly say that I can’t think of any aspect of our wedding that could have gone better. We already want to come back to celebrate our anniversary!

My partner and I had been looking for a wedding venue for quite a while, we wanted something to suit our small numbers but still with a luxury vibe. The first time we saw Pauntley Court we both knew that this was where our wedding needed to be. Melissa is amazing, she is so friendly and knowledgeable, and you can feel how much she loves Pauntley Court. The grounds are beautiful and the rooms are just exquisite. There were so many options for the dining area, ceremony location, socialising etc, no detail was missed and no request was too big or small to be accommodated. Jilly was our wedding coordinator and she went above and beyond in terms of helping us make the most of our special day. We had numerous meetings beforehand, and she spent the whole day working away in the background making sure we had the most perfect day. Which we did! We also hired Rachel to help with tidying and washing up in the mornings, and she was an absolute godsend. Her help allowed us to just relax and enjoy our day to the fullest. She cooks a mean breakfast too! Thank you all for everything xxx

We couldn't have imagined a more perfect place to get married than Pauntley Court. The first time we went we both instantly knew it was the right place for us, it has a special feel about it as soon as you arrive. The house is amazing, decorated beautifully throughout with so many nice touches. The gardens are incredible, and we loved that there are so many different areas to use within it over the weekend. We loved having the venue for the whole weekend as it meant we were able to celebrate with friends and family on Friday and Sunday too which made the weekend even more exciting.

We really wanted our wedding to be as personalised to us as possible, and we were able to achieve this so easily - choosing our catering company/bar company/where we wanted different aspects of the day to take place etc. This all meant that our wedding had a bespoke feel to it and we loved how our day was different to all others before.

We were lucky enough to have amazing weather on our wedding day and had our ceremony outside on the ceremony lawn. It truly felt like we were at a destination wedding due to it being such a beautiful venue and location - so many guests said they felt like they had been transported to Italy or France! Melissa the owner is so lovely and always happy to help. Rachel the housekeeper is an amazing asset to the team and definitely saved the day at one point! We had Holly as our wedding coordinator and she was absolutely incredible, she made me feel so calm and comfortable on the day knowing it would all run smoothly in her safe hands. We couldn't recommend getting married at Pauntley enough - thank you so much
