Penshurst Place were delighted to win the first ever prestigious Kent Wedding Best Venue of the Year Award in 2011. The judges included the Marketing Directors of John Lewis and the House of Fraser wedding lists departments.

On the awards night the announcer said:

“Penshurst Place and Gardens is set in an area of unspoilt natural beauty and is famed for its stunning Tudor Gardens and awe-inspiring medieval banqueting hall.

Along with its obvious fantastic backdrop for the most romantic of weddings, they pride themselves on their exacting standards of personalised service, and aim to make every wedding day perfect.

Every couple is allocated their own designated members of the banqueting team, who will be on duty throughout the whole wedding day, to ensure its ultimate smooth running.

With Leith’s as their appointed caterer to provide a fine dining experience, every special dietary requirement can be catered for.

Judges thought it was an enchanting venue with a flexible wedding package and high attention to detail at every level.''
