Wedding Receptions

“Everyone has been very complimentary about the whole day and so many people were amazed at the Tonbridge school venue. The three course wedding breakfast was of excellent quality and the service provided could not have been better. We really appreciate all your help, support and organisation for the day and we would like to thank you both very much. Your attention to detail, especially with regards to our “oldies” was very much appreciated by both us and them. The whole day could not have been better organised and everybody who was there was very impressed and thoroughly enjoyed the occasion.” - Peter & Janet Wright, Parents of the Bride, August 2014

“I’d just like to add my thanks to you for being so kind to Becca and Russ in organising their special day. They obviously didn’t want a traditional affair, and you expertly adapted things to suit them perfectly. - Margaret Lucas, Mother of the Bride, October 2014

“We held our wedding reception at Tonbridge School early this month and it was absolutely fantastic. I have received so many comments on what a great wedding venue and also on how wonderful the food was. We could not have asked for a better location and service from the brilliant Events team at the school. Thanks to you all.” - Ryan & Klare Meyer , April 2015
