Syon Park House and Great Conservatory

Champagne Susie, 24 August, 2014 at 22:56 Posted on Planning 0 16

My fiance and I are considering having our wedding at this beautiful venue, but we can't find any reviews on it, which would help us make up our minds. We have already visited it and know how the day would be organised, but we would like to hear from anyone who has attended a wedding there in wet weather!

    A few photographer friends have photographed Syon Park and the photos turned out fantastic, even the wet weather wedding I saw from one last year. I don't think you will have any problems as long as the photographer knows what they are doing.

    It's a lovely venue, very well run and has the loveliest gardens for photos.

    Ralph has more than a passing interest in the well-being of Syon Park too, it's very personal to him.

    Wet weather should only effect your possession of the grounds, even in the worst case scenario of rain all day there is enough light in most places to keep things bright.

    Thank you, Bruce, for your reply. I know how important it is to have an experienced photographer who would be able to deal with the occasion whatever the weather! Did your friends notice any problems in the conservatory, as we have been advised that it is not watertight?

    Thank you, Chris, for your reply.

    It certainly looks an amazing venue, something for everyone, and we would love to hold our wedding there if possible.

    Forgot all about this sorry, He rang me today to tell me that he didn't see any problems with water leaking in and it was a very rainy day in 2013, he also said it was lovely to shoot the group photos inside for a change?

    Good luck and I hope it helps, you have one stunning venue which is on my most wanted list to shoot a wedding at?.

    Bruce

    Gorgeous venue. On the positive side, to some it easier to leave negative reviews, so if you've searched and can't find any, I'd grab it with both hands ?

    Does anyone know if you can use a DJ? They mention bands on their website but no DJ and it’s really difficult to get a reply from the via email. Thank you
