From Booking to the Big Day!
Planning your Wedding can be daunting. Lyndsey, our in-house Wedding Manager is here to help you navigate your Vallum Wedding experience. She is here to help streamline the planning process and answer any questions you have along the way.
1
Face-to-Face Meeting and Tour
We would like to offer you a 1:1 complimentary viewing with Lyndsey. This enables her to capture an impression of you as a couple so can collaborate with you on menus, budgets and the all important date! Lyndsey then sends you a personal quote the same day.
2
Save the Date
When you decide we are your Wedding Home we quickly ‘Save the Date’ while you book your church or registrar. As soon as we know your ceremony is booked we invite you to sign our booking forms and pay a deposit. As soon as the deposit is received we send you our ‘Guide for Brides (and Grooms)’ which has lots of helpful tips and ideas as well as information on trusted suppliers.

Wedding Blueprint
Lyndsey will then create your Wedding Notes. This document captures every tiny detail of your day. It forms the blue print for your wedding and Jonny, Vicky and the extended team all refer to the timings and personalised notes on the day.
4
Final Meeting
We invoice you at 16 weeks for half the balance of your quote and then you have a final meeting with Lyndsey a few months before your day to go through all the details. At this meeting you will give final guest numbers (don’t worry, you can increase them if you need to!) and we invoice you for the balance which is paid 6 weeks before your wedding.
5
Run Through!
The day before your wedding you will meet with Lyndsey for a run through of your ceremony, if you are getting married with us at Vallum. You have time to personalise the space and you are free to leave all your belongings overnight so you don’t have things to think about at the end of your wedding day.
6
Wedding Day!
After months of anticipation, the day is finally here—your wedding day! We couldn’t be more thrilled to celebrate this special moment with you and witness the love that brought you to this incredible day. It’s time to make unforgettable memories, and we can’t wait to see you again and meet all of your amazing guests!

All of our guests commented on how amazing the venue was, and the food beautiful. I would recommend this venue to anyone looking to get married in the future.”
Ashleigh and David
“Lyndsey was so helpful and cheery all the way through the wedding process. I was looking for an exclusive venue with good food, laid back atmosphere, that didn’t have a conveyor belt of weddings coming through each week. Vallum ticked all the boxes.”
Alice and Andy
“As soon as we viewed the venue we fell in love with it. It's enough of a blank canvas to make the room your own but also has it's own charm and doesn't need much done at all.”
Emily
“We had the best time ever – from start to finish! You did the best job ever and totally looked after us from day 1 until the end. Every single person commented on how beautiful and organised everything was, the food was to die for and the service me and our family and friends received was exceptional. We hand-on-heart couldn’t thank you enough.”

Further Information
Explore more about our venue and discover how we can bring your dream wedding to life!
Does the venue have your preferred wedding date available?
Some venues list their availability online, but at Vallum, we pride ourselves on hosting only a few weddings each week. This allows us to get to know each couple, ensuring their day feels relaxed and unrushed. This also means our dates book up quickly! We offer a two-week “save the date” period to give you time to make your decision.
Does the venue have enough capacity to accommodate all your guests?
Whether you’re planning a small, intimate wedding or a grand celebration, it’s important to confirm the venue’s capacity. At Vallum, our Tipi is ideal for smaller weddings with a cozy, charming atmosphere. For larger events, our marquee seats up to 160 guests for both the ceremony and wedding breakfast, with space for over 200 in the evening—perfect for a Ceilidh!
Who will be there on the day?
At Vallum, the team on your wedding day depends on the size of your event and the menu you’ve chosen. However, you’ll always have a dedicated Wedding Co-ordinator, chefs, bar staff, and serving staff. Our Wedding Co-ordinator can also act as your Master of Ceremonies if desired. Staff costs are included in the venue hire.
Do we only get the venue for the day?
We block out the day before and after your wedding to give you full access for setup and to ensure everything is stress-free. On the day before, you can dress the marquee and meet with our Wedding Team to go over all the final details.
Do we get exclusive use of the site?
Absolutely! The wedding lawn, marquee, and Tipi are yours exclusively, so you won’t encounter unexpected guests on your special day.
How do the wedding packages work?
We keep it simple: you pay for venue hire, food, and drink. There are no hidden costs! Venue hire varies depending on the day of the week and the season. For food and drink, you can choose from our recommendations or work with our chefs to create a bespoke menu. For drinks, we offer corkage options, with leftover drinks available for collection the next day.
Will there be any changes to the venue before our big day?
We’re always enhancing our venue to improve your experience. We’ll keep you informed about any updates that may affect your wedding.
