    Welkinweir Estate was an absolutely wonderful venue for our wedding. From the very beginning, Shelley and the team were incredibly helpful, providing quick responses to our questions and accommodating our needs throughout the planning process. The estate itself is truly unique and picturesque - the well-maintained grounds and historic buildings created a stunning backdrop for our special day. Shelley was there for us every step of the way, helping to bring our vision to life and effectively communicating with us to ensure everything went smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful and special venue to celebrate our marriage. We highly recommend Welkinweir Estate to any couple looking for an unforgettable wedding experience.

    Welkinweir Estate is the perfect venue for a wedding. From the beginning, Shelly and her team were easy to communicate with, responsive, and incredibly helpful. They answered all of our questions, no matter how small, and made sure every detail was taken care of. The space itself is gorgeous, giving us the elegant garden and estate wedding vibe we were going for. The grounds are beautifully maintained and provides a stunning backdrop for ceremony and photos. What really sold us is their sustainability and conservation initiatives. We are so grateful to Shelly and the Welkinweir team for helping us work towards making our special day truly unforgettable.
