  Lovely Venue, Fantastic Food, Great Staff

  Puddicombe House was the perfect space for our January wedding! We do ballroom dance as a hobby so one of the most important factors we were looking for in a venue was a place that would have ample floor space for an elaborate first dance. We looked at a few venues but when we saw Puddicombe House we instantly fell in love and knew we would be getting married there. We had about 70 guests attend and there was plenty of seating space available around the central dance floor. Having the ceremony and reception be in the same location was also a great convenience for our guests.
  
  The food was incredible. Before we even had a chance to try it ourselves, we heard from vendors at wedding shows that Puddicombe House has delicious food. The tasting confirmed that for us, and our guests very much enjoyed the meal. The late night poutine bar was a particular hit and is highly recommended!
  
  The staff were fantastic! They did a great job of ensuring a smooth transition between ceremony and reception. They also provided excellent service at the reception making sure anyone who needed a top up of wine at dinner was helped. The bartender was very kind and attentive to our guests. Nick did a great job before the wedding making sure everything was organized and would go smoothly for the day of.
  
  We are so happy with how our wedding turned out! Puddicombe House played a huge part in the success of the day, both in how amazing the venue is, and the people that work there. We highly recommend this space to other couples!
  
  P.S. The on-site spa provided a perfect spot for the bride, bridesmaids, and mothers to get their hair and makeup done. We also decided to stay at the B&B and the room and amenities were wonderful.

  Beautiful Venue!

  We're so glad we chose to go with Puddicombe House as our wedding venue! From our first visit to the time in between and the actual wedding, we couldn't have asked for more. Guests were raving about the food, saying it was among (or surpassed) their best wedding meals ever, and the same for the beauty of the venue! It was so convenient having everything in one place the day before (we stayed over 2 nights), the day of, and even breakfast together the day after. Alayna and Nick answered all of our questions leading up to the wedding, and the day of, Alayna directed things seamlessly for the ceremony and reception.

  A Magical Experience

  Our experience with Puddicombe House was truly exceptional. Our wedding on August 3 was everything we had envisioned and more. Every detail we dreamed of came to life.
  
  Our wedding party and some guests stayed at the Inn, and the accommodations were delightful. It was so convenient to have our wedding hair done at the spa. Alayna and Nick were incredibly helpful, accommodating every aspect of our plans. They arranged the outdoor ceremony at the gazebo park, and while we were having our photos taken, our guests enjoyed exclusive access to the beautiful outdoor terrace.
  
  Ella at Neodecor created stunning decorations and floral arrangements. We appreciated the flexibility to set up our centerpieces and additional decor the day before. The meal was outstanding, and the serving staff was top-notch. The venue was not only accessible but also impeccably clean.
  
  Alayna's dedication was evident as she oversaw the entire day, ensuring everything went smoothly right up until our last song of the evening. We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience and wholeheartedly recommend Puddicombe House for any wedding or special event.

  Loved our wedding at Puddicombe House!

  I’m so glad we had our wedding at Puddicombe House! My husband and I live in the maritimes, so I was a little scared that planning a wedding from across the country would be a nightmare, but Nick and Alayna were so responsive, accommodating, and flexible.
  
  The space outside is absolutely beautiful. Guests were lining up to take photos under the heart arch during cocktail hour. One word of note - the bottom of my dress turned green from walking on the astroturf where the cocktail hour was held. This wasn’t a big deal for me because pictures were done and I had a separate dress for the rest of the reception, but it’s good to know.
  
  The indoor space was also stunning. The floors, the lighting, the bathrooms were all beautiful.
  
  The food is hands down the best wedding food I’ve ever had. Guests loved it! And the house wine… I really wish I could buy it at the liquor store. It was GOOD.

  Such a wonderful place to get married!

  We selected the Puddicombe House for both our ceremony and reception so that our guests wouldn't have to travel.
  The Puddicombe House was amazing. The venue was fantastic, the food was excellent, the coordinator was responsive and SO helpful, and being able to access our own wedding site for RSVPs removed a lot of the headache in planning.
  The staff was friendly and responsive, we had several comments on how efficiently everything was carried out.
  One thing to note: Accommodation is limited in New Hamburg, so you will likely want to arrange a shuttle to Kitchener and/or Straftford for your guests.

  Very Helpful

  Our wedding ceremony and reception went very smoothly at Puddicombe House. Alaya was extremely helpful with planning the day for us and making suggestions when we were undecided or unsure about anything. Nick was also very helpful during the day of to ensure everything was running smoothly. All of our guests enjoyed themselves and are still raving about how much fun they had.

  Amazing from start to finish

  We ended up having to change our date 3 times and Nick and Alaya were amazing and accommodating. They really made our day special and the food was beyond delicious. All of our guests were so happy with the meal and several commented it was the best wedding food they had ever had. The venue is beautiful and although we couldn’t get married in the park the use of their tent outside was perfect.

  Hi Laura,
  
  Thank you for your kind words; The Puddicombe House was delighted to play hostess to your and Maciek’s special day! The two of you were a pleasure to work alongside; somehow, remaining positive and excited to share the love you have for each other, with your friends and family, despite the many obstacles placed in your way! I wish you all the best, in your future, and look forward to seeing you both, on occasion, in the restaurant. Wishing you a Wonderful Holiday Season and a Happy New Year!

  The Best Place on Earth

  I cannot recommend Puddicombe House enough! We booked our wedding for 2020 and postponed to 2021. Nick and the team at Puddicombe were nothing but helpful, accommodating, and amazing every step of the way! Nothing was ever too much trouble and they were patient and kind while I re-planned our day. On top of that, the venue is stunning, the food is delicious, and the staff is attentive, professional, and helpful! We had our entire wedding party stay onsite the night of the wedding and it was so nice to have that convenience! There is an Airbnb that sleeps 8, plus 6 rooms and 2 cottages, so it was perfect! I can't recommend Puddicombe enough to anyone who is looking for a wedding venue, great meal, or a night/weekend away! Book it now!!!
