Weddings
With its woodland backdrop against the crisp white marquee, The Glade is the perfect location for weddings with the flexibility to take advantage of our packages, but also create bespoke packages to cover all requirements.
We have a dedicated site Wedding and Venue Manager who is perfectly placed to discuss ideas and suggestions on how to create your perfect day, meeting with clients at the venue to talk through how we can bring your thoughts to life. Being the single point of contact wherever possible for each client from start to finish, we offer that tailor made service most venues don’t, including access the day prior to set up and access the following day to take your belongings wherever possible. We also have a number of recommended suppliers who can assist in adding those special touches for your day, including Florists, Photographers, Venue Dressers, DJ and Disco’s and Wedding Dress suppliers. The pagoda is licensed for ceremonies and with outdoor seating for up to 250 guests, and we have a range of large outdoor games to hire to give your guests the opportunity to make the most of the outdoor space!
The marquee itself can seat up to 250 guests and with a range of options to consider, take a look at our pricing page for further details.
We have the flexibility to offer a formal wedding breakfast on round tables covered in crisp white linen, or a more informal feel of ‘Harry Potter’ style long tables if required. With our bespoke built Saffron House Bar, we have a range of drinks to satisfy all guests requirements, with the option to bring in cask ales and special request drinks too. We can also offer a separate Gin Bar, ‘Pimp my Prosecco’ station and other quirky options for that something different! We also offer a range of drinks package options and the opportunity to upgrade and create a bespoke drinks package depending on tastes. Our caterers have over 5 years’ experience catering at The Glade and are best placed to offer tried and tested menus to our guests, with options ranging from delicious 3 course traditional Wedding Breakfasts, to more informal BBQ’s, Paella and Hog Roasts for either your daytime or evening. Saffron Catering will expertly tailor menus to suit a variety of budgets and tastes, offering a complimentary menu tasting with all bookings.

Dawn and Joe – August 2018
We’d like to thank you once again for helping us celebrate the happiest day of our lives, helping us include everyone even if they couldn’t be there themselves. We couldn’t have done it all without you.
Charlene and Craig – August 2018
We recently got married at the Glade and it was amazing. We opted for a BBQ for our wedding breakfast and a cold buffet in the evening. and we had many guests comment on how fantastic the food was especially the small cakes. I was also very pleased with the children’s menu which Saffron offered us. Kim helped me with planning the wedding and on the day she was always in the background making sure everything went perfectly. She did an amazing job at putting me at ease and making sure I didn’t have it worry about anything. The other staff were also lovely and polite especially the one barman who amused some of my guests with magic tricks! I would highly recommend both the Glade and Saffron catering to everyone and want to say thanks again for helping make our day one that we will never forget xxx
Rachel and Alex – July 2018
A very big thank you to everyone involved from Saffron, but especially Kim. She has made everything run very smoothly and Kept me calm when I needed to be calm. Everything was perfect and we are both very happy with how the day went. So a very big thank you to all at Saffron.
Carly and John – July 2018
Saffron catered at our wedding at The Glade on Saturday and without a doubt a big five stars from us. After a change of heart about the venue we had originally chosen only 8 weeks before the wedding Carla made me feel at ease and sorted everything. She put me into the hands of Kim who was just truly amazing. Nothing was ever to much trouble. Last minute ideas, emails and texts and still Kim sorted everything. Everyone of our guests commented on how great the food was, it was just a shame my husband was still full from the wedding breakfast to try to hog roast as it was so tasty. Thanks so much for everything, highly recommend x
