When asked to describe the overall highlights from the day, Charlie said:
“Our day was everything and more that we could have imagined. From start to finish, everything was perfect and it truly was the best day of our lives.
The food was amazing, there is nothing else that can be said other than it was simply amazing. Our guests still talk about the Knickerbocker Glory desserts to this day! The whole setting of Goodwood is breath-taking, with such a sense of grandeur.”
Charlie and her family stayed at Hound Lodge over the wedding weekend, our luxury 10-bedroom retreat on the Estate.
“Hound Lodge is an experience in itself, it is so incredible! James [The Butler] and his team are beyond lovely and charming. We didn't want to leave!”
I was determined to dance the night away with my husband and really embrace the love that was in the house that day.

The planning of your wedding day is an exciting, yet somewhat daunting, experience. Our team of wedding planners and Goodwood House staff on the day were another particular highlight for Charlie and Scott.
“The team were truly amazing. What a great team of people. Felicity, our wedding planner, was beyond amazing and the team on the day were so friendly and accommodating to us and all of our friends and family – they even danced whilst bringing out the desserts!”
"Goodwood House is simply like nothing else out there. Each room is unique and so beautiful. From the history of the house and its stories, to the outstanding pieces of artwork – it truly is a wonder.
From the moment we stepped foot into Goodwood House on our first show around, it look my breath away. The whole experience from start to finish was stress free and we were made to feel so special every step of the way – WOW!
We really cannot thank you all enough!"
