Fredrick’s Hotel & Alix
Venue: Beautiful boutique hotel situated in maidenhead, wonderful décor and a beautiful new neutral carpet within main function room. The reception is gorgeous with art deco chandeliers and marble floor which looks lovely for wedding photos!

the Berkshire Suite for our stay at the hotel and it was absolutely amazing! It was quiet and peaceful. The shower and bath are lovely and the bed is massive. I didn’t get ready for the wedding in this room – but I would highly recommend it for future brides as it is very spacious.
Food: Charlie the Chef is absolutely wonderful, he was so flexible and professional. The food was delicious, the kitchen team must have worked so hard to deliver 82 meals all at the same time and all piping hot! Our guests commented on the food and said that it was delicious. The sauce for the chicken was amazing!
Staff: The waiting staff and bar staff were flawless, happy and smiling and very discreet we hardly knew they were there. Could have done with a few more bar staff, but as the Bride – I didn’t have to wait long for a drink anyway! Ben was lovely and very helpful throughout the day before when we came to set up and on the wedding day itself – lovely guy.
Wedding Service: This hotel has the most amazing Wedding Coordinator ever! Alix Matania - She is such a wonderful lady and I am so sad that I don’t have any more annoying bridezilla emails to send her! Alix is so patient and understanding and completely understood my theme for my wedding. Alix was kind to both of our parents and whenever we visited to discuss plans she was always welcoming and engaged with us fully. What sets Alix apart from the rest is that she really cares, from responding to emails quickly, to giving us great wedding advice – she knows this industry inside out and I am so pleased that we had her to guide us through our wedding planning. Thank you so much Alix.

We had a wonderful wedding at Fredrick's and I would like to say that there are 3 people who need a special mention straightaway. Alix for being so helpful, kind and reassuring in the run-up to our wedding. We live in France and so we weren't able to make many trips over (in fact we only went twice…
Read More
before the wedding) but she helped us by taking photos and explaining the layout and all in all she is absolutely fantastic and will help you make your day very special. We'd been badly let down by Monkey Island, which is round the corner by them cancelling our wedding as the new owners wanted to do refurbishments 6 months before our wedding where everything had been organised. Alix helped us not only make the most of the organisation already done but helped make it better.
The second person who deserves a stirling review is Charlie, the chef. Honestly I am surprised he is not the top chef in a top London restaurant. He is absolutely amazing and was so amazing in letting my French husband decided with him the menu and all the French guests LOVED all the food. I knew it would be the case after having the tasting a few months before but I didn't expect all the French guests (even my French mother-in-law who usually finds something to complain about) to rave about the food and how it went against all their theories on English food. Thank-you Charlie as the food was such an important part for Rudy and you took all the worry and stress away with your delicious food.
The third person I think needs a special mention is Andrew, the toastmaster. He was a legend!!! He was so friendly and charming and just added a certain something to that day that would have been sorely lacking without him. He went above and beyond duty as Alix was not there the day of our wedding (as she was on her honeymoon) and he helped us when a couple of things needed to be re-organised. He is the loveliest man and made such a difference to the day.
Thank-you!!

We chose Fredricks for our wedding as we wanted an exclusive use venue, where all of our family and friends could stay over.
Alix, the Events Manager, was great, made sure all of the planning went smoothly and answered all of our questions very promptly.
On the day itself we had a couple of…

issues but these were dealt with very well by the hotel manager.
The food was particularly outstanding and we had lots of positive comments from guests.
Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful but we did have a few problems with being billed incorrectly on check in and check out, where notes were on the account but hadn't been reviewed properly.
Also, half our guests (including us) didn't have any hot water the following day, but this was compensated by Fredricks.
We would recommend Fredricks to other couples looking for an exclusive use venue. We would also recommend our photographer (Maria Ashby-Giles) and Susie at stylish seating who were both fabulous, and the DJ (Keith) who did a great job.

The Chef done an amazing wedding breakfast and everyone commented on how nice the food was. And, the bar staff, waiters and waitresses were also fantastic and very professional all day.

We had our wedding at Fredrick’s Hotel in December. We had an absolutely fantastic day. Everything went perfectly which was mostly due to the Events Manager Alix. In the months before the wedding Alix was so helpful and very adaptable to our requirements. On the day of the wedding she made sure…

the room was set up just right and that everyone was in the right place at the right time so I didn’t have to worry about anything and could spend the morning relaxing! Alix does a fantastic job and made everything so easy for us.
I stayed the night before the wedding and ate dinner at the hotel, the food was delicious. The double room was traditionally furnished, it was lovely and very clean with a view of the garden.
On the day of the wedding Alix organised everything and the room was decorated so nicely, the hotel staff were really diligent and helpful and the food was great! Lots of guests commented on just how good the food was. Throughout the whole day we felt that the staff did everything to make our day go seamlessly. On the night of the wedding we stayed in the Berkshire Suite which was huge, really nicely furnished and was very clean. I wish we could have stayed longer. We had breakfast the next day which was delicious.
I would recommend Fredrick’s to anyone wanting to find an intimate, friendly venue to get married. I would also recommend it as a place to stay if visiting Maidenhead. Thank you to everyone at Fredrick’s for making our day perfect and a day we’ll remember.

the best things about this venue was Alix, the wedding coordinator. She was fantastic, keeping in contact with us & keeping us up to date with everything. She was very welcoming & relaxed about the whole thing which made the wedding plannin calm! She was there for some of the wedding night & that definitely put us at ease.
It was a truly amazing day!

We initially found the Fredricks Hotel by searching for a spa hotel that would suit our needs for a wedding celebration to last a long weekend. The venue was perfect in the flesh. On our initial meeting I found Alix very amiable. She was easy to talk to and this made our decision to go ahead with…

booking the Fredricks- registrar permitting- an easy one. We worked together to plan a fantastic wedding. Alix and her colleagues were always on hand during the planning for the wedding to answer our many questions without making us feel like nuisances. We planned for an October wedding with back up options depending on weather and numbers of guests. We met with a chef and events staff to make sure that they were fully aware of our requirements and we were happy with their plans. All aspects of our day were delivered well as a result. With the weather being fantastic on the day we were able to get married outside.....the best feeling.....walking out to a beautifully arranged area where we were able to say I do in front of our friends and family. Alix and the Fredricks team did an amazing job and I don't think there was much more she could have done for us.
The Fredricks hotel is a perfect venue for a wedding. It can accommodate all sizes of wedding. The outdoor space adds to the experience too. The staff look after the venue very well and it is clean and tidy inside and out.
Alix is a very professional yet friendly person. She works extremely hard to deliver a great event. Alix is very knowledgeable and works well with the team at the Fredricks. The events team and the food and beverage team made a lot of effort to deliver a fantastic day. They listen to your requests, give advice where necessary and our wedding was excellent as a result.

Alix was the reason we booked our wedding and reception at Fredricks Hotel. She was the first wedding coordinator we met and none of the other we visited lived up to the first impression Alix has given us. She completely understood what we were trying to achieve at our wedding and was helpful when…

we were putting ideas forward as to whether or not things were possible. When it came to the day you only saw Alix was on hand when we needed something and was happy to help throughout the day.
Alix is friendly and understands what is important to a couple planning their wedding. She understands that you aren't really sure what is what when it comes to wedding and event the most frivolous aren't a problem, even if you've asked it a million times! She was helpful throughout the entire process and was a constant professional.

Alix was so calm and professional. Nothing was too much of a problem. She was also very honest about what we did and didn't need to spend money on. I always felt confident that everything would be fine on the day as Alix and the team were so professional.

ensured out guests who are staying in the hotel were well looked after and had any extra's they required. She was very discreet on the day while ensuring everything ran smoothly.
I had tried several venues before talking to Alix and had been put off as others seemed uninterested in me because I only wanted a small wedding with 30 guests. Alix, however, seemed delighted to speak to me and inspired confidence that she could give me the wedding I wanted. The resulting wedding was beyond my expectations.

Pricing: Having gone around Maidenhead and reviewed all the other venues on offer in this area, Frederick's provided us with the best deal for the facilities being provided. The general impression is that Frederick's is expensive due to its good reputation. This could not be further from the…

truth.
Facilities: Amazing. Fredericks is small (but still with lots of room for flexibility in setting up your wedding). It is intimate and offer great dining facilities. My husband and I had a separate kids party which Frederick's gladly accommodated and supported. Our guest were free to roam and sit in other breakout out areas to get away from the hustle and bustle of the wedding if they wanted to.
Food: Frederick's had a new events chef who was more than happy to listen to our questions and accommodate our specific diet requirements. I had 2 children on the guest list with potentially fateful multiple food allergies. The chef was great in accommodating them. I was so overwhelmed they went out of their way to ensure they were catered for and made their food look amazing too. Thank you.
I was conscious too that my guests were being difficult regards menu choices on the day. Somehow the chef and the team managed to make everyone happy anyway. Thank you. Much appreciated.
Accessibility to event coordinator: As I was so busy with little time to plan this wedding, I was very grateful that Alix was on the ball, at the right time. She provided reminders of when we needed to do the tasting event, seat plans etc. She was always available sometimes late in the evening to meet up and discuss. Even when I threw in extra guests and new seating arrangements, she was more than happy to accommodate. She is a great sport and know her stuff.
Fredericks Support Staff: Never met a friendlier more accommodating team. Front desk was great and waiting staff so patient.
Conclusion: My guests had a great time. I have lost count of the number of times I have been told it was the best wedding ever!

our wedding was in March 2015 at Fredricks hotel and spa and we had Alix as our wedding planner. She was absolutely fantastic as planning it and keeping us up to date! As in South African she even managed to get the head chef from Shaka Zullu in London to do our food as I wanted it to be traditional…

What a perfect place for a wedding! Mike and I did our research with venues and felt so blessed when we stumbled across Fredricks!! The packages they offered were varied with lots of different options to choose from to suit our needs. Incredibly good prices too! I think we would have saved about…

£1500 than if we had our sort of package anywhere else. I can't speak highly enough of our experience at Fredricks. Alix, the wedding coordinator made us both feel so welcome and at ease straight away (we'd met with a few others and she was by far the nicest!). She showed us around giving us ideas and we just fell in love with the place immediately! Such beautiful grounds to have a wedding!
The whole build up to the wedding, Alix was always available to get in contact with and answer any queries we had leading up to our day there. We really enjoyed going for our menu tasting, it was a real date night filled with food and wine and even got to have a chat with the sous chef about our menu and was happy to accomadate all our needs.
When it came to the wedding day, the whole team at Fredricks were nothing but beyond helpful!! If there was anything we needed or wanted there was always someone on hand to help us immediately. Everyone we dealt with, from Alix, to Suzi with the chair covers, to Angus who served us... Plus everyone else who was just so very helpful, warm and welcoming. I honestly can't speak highly enough of this place and if I had to to it all again (here's hoping I wont!!) it would be Fredricks every time. You just know you'll be in good hands there.

Fredricks Hotel and Spa is a superb wedding venue, as soon as we walked into the hotel it had a warm and friendly atmosphere. The size of the hotel is not too big and not too small and feels quite homely as we didn't want a huge grand venue where you could feel lost in.
However it's not only the…

venue itself but the staff and wedding coordinator, Alix, who were all amazing. Alix was extremely helpful and organised in the run up to our big day, and on the day was on hand to make sure everything ran smoothly.

I would highly recommend Fredricks as we couldn't have asked for more and all our guests said what a wonderful hotel it was.

exactly what we received from Fredrick's. Nothing was too much trouble. Fredrick's were able to assist us in all aspects of the wedding day including helping us with other suppliers. We were able to have regular meetings and discussions with Alix in the lead up to the big day and on the day itself Alix handled all the preparations which allowed me to relax and enjoy the time with my family - this was super special to me since they had travelled over from New Zealand for the wedding. An added bonus was that we were able to get married outside and the team were brilliant to ensure that this dream could be made true considering it had been raining earlier in the day. If you are considering a wedding venue, you won't be disappointed in Fredricks.

gardens. All the staff were welcoming and friendly, but also extremely efficient. Nothing was too much trouble, and all queries were dealt with promptly and with a smile.
We would particularly like to mention Alexandra Matania, the hotel's conference and wedding organiser. From our initial enquiry the previous year, through every subsequent meeting up to the big day itself, she was a model of efficiency and friendliness. Nothing was too much trouble: she was happy to accommodate all our quirky ideas for our parrot-themed event, even allowing us to bring one of our cockatoos to attend the ceremony! All her recommendations for ancillary helpers, from flowers and make-up, to table-dressing, hog roast and DJ, and photography - delivered first class service.
Everything put together made the day a wonderful and memorable experience for us all - even the weather was kind, between two days of rain! We would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to any friends and family looking for a similar event, but particularly because of the brilliant service and expertise supplied by Alexandra Matania.

I will always recommend Alex along with Fredrick's hotel and i will always be going back to visit whenever we can!

We had a wonderful wedding at Fredrick's. From the first moment we walked in the place felt right. Unlike many other venues we considered we felt from the very start that the staff genuinely wanted to assist us in having a special wedding day- not wanting to fleece us for every penny. The exclusive…
Read More
use option we chose allowed us to really make the place feel like our own and the staff treated us like we were almost permanent residents. We were only free at weekends for meetings with the wedding planner so attended several open days where we were always made to feel welcome and Alix would always find time even though these must have been her busiest days by miles. Alix was a wonderful help in achieving what we wanted from our wedding. We were never made to feel like anything was impossible or unreasonable from her perspective. She would always go the extra mile to try and make it work etc etc.
The food was absolutely spectacular. Our guests were commenting on it for weeks afterwards. Callum the chef was also really nice and attentive to us- again like Alix going the extra mile to make us feel special.
We stayed in the Sandringham suite after an open day. Extremely comfortable and very nice to have the veranda area to relax in. We stayed in the Berkshire suite for the wedding itself which was sublime. We stayed an extra night afterwards which was extremely relaxing. We had spa treatments and dinner to wind down after the hectic build up to the big day. To crown everything off it is only 20-30 minutes drive from Heathrow so you're on your honeymoon before you know it.
I could recommend it any more highly.

this idea work from rejigging menu's, restaurant times and general change of normal hotel business. We worked with management on a special room rate, menus, drinks, corkage and special needs for our guests due to this.
I think the layout of the hotel is a huge bonus for weddings. Because this is a small hotel all areas are interlinked. We had all doors open so whether you were dancing in the function room, drinking in the bar, sitting outside in the garden/patio or in the restaurant, everyone was together unlike large commercial hotels with endless corridors and staircases. Again, hugely important for a wedding. All rooms are also in short distance of the main area which is superb for nipping off and freshening up during the day.
The food was perfect (breakfast a highlight) in fact we have had many many guests telling us they plan on visiting the hotel again (especially for the breakfast!)
We spent a year planning our Wedding with Alix Matania (wedding events manager at Fredrick's) she was extremely helpful, efficient and replied to our emails and inquires instantly during that time with a personal touch. As always with a wedding and this kind of time scale things changed on a weekly basis and Alix was more than accommodating with regard to this.
Most of our planning came with recommendations from Alix (DJ, Hog roast, chair overs) and we were happy with everything. We had our own bookings such as a harpist, piper, musicians and singers during the day and Alix dealt with all the arrival times and organising. We didn't panic or stress for one-second.
I can not recommend this hotel enough as an 'exclusive use' venue. I'm even considering it for my fortieth Birthday!

reception for us and our guests. We were made to feel that we were the most important wedding that was being organised at all times.
The function room looked fabulous, I gave Alix my decorations and theme and let her deal with the artistic side of things and I was not disappointed. The food was incredible and even dietary requirements were met for my guests that had specific needs.
Overall, we had a fantastic day that we will always remember. The gardens at Fredrick's are beautiful, the staff are great and the spa was wonderful. We thoroughly recommend Fredrick's to anyone planning a wedding, however large or small.

catered to every whim, no matter how strange or bizarre it was. Really eased a lot of our worries, its was so good to know that she was taking care of the small little things. The staff really did go above the call of duty.
Granted Its not a grand stately home, but its something much more personal and intimate and relaxing. For our family orientated wedding it was perfect. Safe for the kids, gorgeous gardens, lovely food and relaxing rooms.

be the main areas you wish to consider). We had a lovely wedding, with the help from friends, suppliers and hotel staffs, everything has been laid out exactly what I wanted. Everyone (including our parents) said we have made the right decision and it was a beautiful venue located in an amazing area. My bridesmaids even did a sight-seeing on the next day after they tried the spa facilities. Thanks to all the staffs who helped before, during and even after the big day. I have to say I could not have a better wedding. There are so many things I could compliment, food, service, facilities. But of course you will have to see it yourself, our wedding coordinator Alix has been extremely helpful, remember to talk to her if you are considering to have you big day here, she will provide you all the information.

We were all well looked after throughout the reception. The meal was delicious and beautifully presented, and the bacon butties later on were great too!
As we had been lucky enough to pick the hottest weekend of the year the outside areas were very well used and allowed all our guests to enjoy the day in the relaxed atmosphere.
The bride and groom's suite was delightful and very comfortable.
All our guests were impressed and enjoyed themselves for which we thank the whole team at Fredrick's. We would certainly highly recommend it for a memorable wedding.

and maitre'd. The gardens were a perfect setting for guests to mingle pre the ceremony,followed by photographs & pre reception drinks. The food was wonderful, the service amazing and the ambiance fantastic. We were helped by the weather, however I believe they would still have created a wonderful experience even if the day had been brought inside. We continued into the evening, where the food & service continued to be top class
The only let down was finding that some guests pre ceremony drinks (which weren't included) had been charged to our account, however this seemed a small price to pay in the overall scheme of things.
If you are looking for a stylish & elegant venue, which offers flexibility, great value, a choice of wedding packages (the cost per head was extremely reasonable) excellent service and a day to remember for all the right reasons, then go and take a visit to Fredricks.

All these little things made the whole reception amazing and our experience with Fredericks second to none.

There were obviously many, many highlights of the day but, regarding Fredicks, I would list them as:
1. The staff were very flexible and there to help us enjoy our day - how often do you visit places where you feel like you have interrupted the staff's chat?
2. The food and wine served was of a high quality.
3. As a relatively small hotel and even with a small wedding, you feel as though the place is yours for the day.
4. They even arranged perfect sunshine during a month (April) which was cold and wet on every other day!
I would have no hesitation in recommending Fredricks - great management, staff, food, rooms and attention to detail.

It was raining so we did not make use of the lovely grounds, but that didn't spoil our evening. We had guests come from all over, and the venue is close to the M4 and M40 which is convenient. I would definitely reccommend Fredricks as a wedding venue.

Food: Charlie the Chef is absolutely wonderful, he was so flexible and professional. The food was delicious, the kitchen team must have worked so hard to deliver 82 meals all at the same time and all piping hot! Our guests commented on the food and said that it was delicious. The sauce for the chicken was amazing!
Staff: The waiting staff and bar staff were flawless, happy and smiling and very discreet we hardly knew they were there. Could have done with a few more bar staff, but as the Bride – I didn’t have to wait long for a drink anyway! Ben was lovely and very helpful throughout the day before when we came to set up and on the wedding day itself – lovely guy.
Wedding Service: This hotel has the most amazing Wedding Coordinator ever! Alix Matania - She is such a wonderful lady and I am so sad that I don’t have any more annoying bridezilla emails to send her! Alix is so patient and understanding and completely understood my theme for my wedding. Alix was kind to both of our parents and whenever we visited to discuss plans she was always welcoming and engaged with us fully. What sets Alix apart from the rest is that she really cares, from responding to emails quickly, to giving us great wedding advice – she knows this industry inside out and I am so pleased that we had her to guide us through our wedding planning. Thank you so much Alix.

The second person who deserves a stirling review is Charlie, the chef. Honestly I am surprised he is not the top chef in a top London restaurant. He is absolutely amazing and was so amazing in letting my French husband decided with him the menu and all the French guests LOVED all the food. I knew it would be the case after having the tasting a few months before but I didn't expect all the French guests (even my French mother-in-law who usually finds something to complain about) to rave about the food and how it went against all their theories on English food. Thank-you Charlie as the food was such an important part for Rudy and you took all the worry and stress away with your delicious food.
The third person I think needs a special mention is Andrew, the toastmaster. He was a legend!!! He was so friendly and charming and just added a certain something to that day that would have been sorely lacking without him. He went above and beyond duty as Alix was not there the day of our wedding (as she was on her honeymoon) and he helped us when a couple of things needed to be re-organised. He is the loveliest man and made such a difference to the day.
Thank-you!!

The food was particularly outstanding and we had lots of positive comments from guests.
Most of the staff were very friendly and helpful but we did have a few problems with being billed incorrectly on check in and check out, where notes were on the account but hadn't been reviewed properly.
Also, half our guests (including us) didn't have any hot water the following day, but this was compensated by Fredricks.
We would recommend Fredricks to other couples looking for an exclusive use venue. We would also recommend our photographer (Maria Ashby-Giles) and Susie at stylish seating who were both fabulous, and the DJ (Keith) who did a great job.

I stayed the night before the wedding and ate dinner at the hotel, the food was delicious. The double room was traditionally furnished, it was lovely and very clean with a view of the garden.
On the day of the wedding Alix organised everything and the room was decorated so nicely, the hotel staff were really diligent and helpful and the food was great! Lots of guests commented on just how good the food was. Throughout the whole day we felt that the staff did everything to make our day go seamlessly. On the night of the wedding we stayed in the Berkshire Suite which was huge, really nicely furnished and was very clean. I wish we could have stayed longer. We had breakfast the next day which was delicious.
I would recommend Fredrick’s to anyone wanting to find an intimate, friendly venue to get married. I would also recommend it as a place to stay if visiting Maidenhead. Thank you to everyone at Fredrick’s for making our day perfect and a day we’ll remember.

The Fredricks hotel is a perfect venue for a wedding. It can accommodate all sizes of wedding. The outdoor space adds to the experience too. The staff look after the venue very well and it is clean and tidy inside and out.
Alix is a very professional yet friendly person. She works extremely hard to deliver a great event. Alix is very knowledgeable and works well with the team at the Fredricks. The events team and the food and beverage team made a lot of effort to deliver a fantastic day. They listen to your requests, give advice where necessary and our wedding was excellent as a result.

I had tried several venues before talking to Alix and had been put off as others seemed uninterested in me because I only wanted a small wedding with 30 guests. Alix, however, seemed delighted to speak to me and inspired confidence that she could give me the wedding I wanted. The resulting wedding was beyond my expectations.

Facilities: Amazing. Fredericks is small (but still with lots of room for flexibility in setting up your wedding). It is intimate and offer great dining facilities. My husband and I had a separate kids party which Frederick's gladly accommodated and supported. Our guest were free to roam and sit in other breakout out areas to get away from the hustle and bustle of the wedding if they wanted to.
Food: Frederick's had a new events chef who was more than happy to listen to our questions and accommodate our specific diet requirements. I had 2 children on the guest list with potentially fateful multiple food allergies. The chef was great in accommodating them. I was so overwhelmed they went out of their way to ensure they were catered for and made their food look amazing too. Thank you.
I was conscious too that my guests were being difficult regards menu choices on the day. Somehow the chef and the team managed to make everyone happy anyway. Thank you. Much appreciated.
Accessibility to event coordinator: As I was so busy with little time to plan this wedding, I was very grateful that Alix was on the ball, at the right time. She provided reminders of when we needed to do the tasting event, seat plans etc. She was always available sometimes late in the evening to meet up and discuss. Even when I threw in extra guests and new seating arrangements, she was more than happy to accommodate. She is a great sport and know her stuff.
Fredericks Support Staff: Never met a friendlier more accommodating team. Front desk was great and waiting staff so patient.
Conclusion: My guests had a great time. I have lost count of the number of times I have been told it was the best wedding ever!

The whole build up to the wedding, Alix was always available to get in contact with and answer any queries we had leading up to our day there. We really enjoyed going for our menu tasting, it was a real date night filled with food and wine and even got to have a chat with the sous chef about our menu and was happy to accomadate all our needs.
When it came to the wedding day, the whole team at Fredricks were nothing but beyond helpful!! If there was anything we needed or wanted there was always someone on hand to help us immediately. Everyone we dealt with, from Alix, to Suzi with the chair covers, to Angus who served us... Plus everyone else who was just so very helpful, warm and welcoming. I honestly can't speak highly enough of this place and if I had to to it all again (here's hoping I wont!!) it would be Fredricks every time. You just know you'll be in good hands there.

We would particularly like to mention Alexandra Matania, the hotel's conference and wedding organiser. From our initial enquiry the previous year, through every subsequent meeting up to the big day itself, she was a model of efficiency and friendliness. Nothing was too much trouble: she was happy to accommodate all our quirky ideas for our parrot-themed event, even allowing us to bring one of our cockatoos to attend the ceremony! All her recommendations for ancillary helpers, from flowers and make-up, to table-dressing, hog roast and DJ, and photography - delivered first class service.
Everything put together made the day a wonderful and memorable experience for us all - even the weather was kind, between two days of rain! We would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to any friends and family looking for a similar event, but particularly because of the brilliant service and expertise supplied by Alexandra Matania.

The food was absolutely spectacular. Our guests were commenting on it for weeks afterwards. Callum the chef was also really nice and attentive to us- again like Alix going the extra mile to make us feel special.
We stayed in the Sandringham suite after an open day. Extremely comfortable and very nice to have the veranda area to relax in. We stayed in the Berkshire suite for the wedding itself which was sublime. We stayed an extra night afterwards which was extremely relaxing. We had spa treatments and dinner to wind down after the hectic build up to the big day. To crown everything off it is only 20-30 minutes drive from Heathrow so you're on your honeymoon before you know it.
I could recommend it any more highly.

I think the layout of the hotel is a huge bonus for weddings. Because this is a small hotel all areas are interlinked. We had all doors open so whether you were dancing in the function room, drinking in the bar, sitting outside in the garden/patio or in the restaurant, everyone was together unlike large commercial hotels with endless corridors and staircases. Again, hugely important for a wedding. All rooms are also in short distance of the main area which is superb for nipping off and freshening up during the day.
The food was perfect (breakfast a highlight) in fact we have had many many guests telling us they plan on visiting the hotel again (especially for the breakfast!)
We spent a year planning our Wedding with Alix Matania (wedding events manager at Fredrick's) she was extremely helpful, efficient and replied to our emails and inquires instantly during that time with a personal touch. As always with a wedding and this kind of time scale things changed on a weekly basis and Alix was more than accommodating with regard to this.
Most of our planning came with recommendations from Alix (DJ, Hog roast, chair overs) and we were happy with everything. We had our own bookings such as a harpist, piper, musicians and singers during the day and Alix dealt with all the arrival times and organising. We didn't panic or stress for one-second.
I can not recommend this hotel enough as an 'exclusive use' venue. I'm even considering it for my fortieth Birthday!

The ceremony room was beautiful, with clothed chairs and sashes, and the reception room was stunning, again with clothed chairs, sashes, candleabres, it was beautiful and overlooked the gorgeous gardens.
All our guests thought that the meal was lovely, really well presented and delicious, and plenty of it. The staff serving were friendly and professional, they were brilliant, and made it feel very special, they couldn't do enough for us.

The function room and bar area were just the right size for us, we had around 90 guests and it was comfortable. The honey moon suite is amazing, very big & spacious. Staff were brilliant, and made it feel very special, they couldn't do enough for us. The buffet was lovely and came out when we asked and staff were there ready to serve very professionally. It was raining so we did not make use of the lovely grounds, but that didn't spoil our evening. We had guests come from all over, and the venue is close to the M4 and M40 which is convenient. I would definitely reccommend Fredricks as a wedding venue.
