Everything you need for an unforgettable day
What sets Leonards Hill Estate apart is its commitment to offering couples the essentials they need for a fantastic wedding while allowing them the flexibility to infuse their personality and style. Eleanor proudly states, “We pride ourselves as being a premium property, as we provide the essentials (custom bar, spacious toilets, prep area for their caterers, tables, and chairs) for a great wedding, having weatherproof plans, and the couple can add their personality by choosing their favourite vendors and style the tables as they please.” This flexibility allows couples to decide whether they want a luxurious wedding or opt for a more casual, relaxed vibe, ensuring that their day is truly one-of-a-kind.
Everything you need in one stunning location
One of the standout features of Leonards Hill Estate is the ability to have both the ceremony and reception in one place. As Eleanor notes, “Smaller weddings and more relaxed vibes are trending right now. Having the ceremony and reception in one place simplifies logistics and creates a seamless experience for couples and their guests.”
A collaborative industry
When asked about her favourite part of being in the wedding industry, Eleanor beams, “That people you meet are in love, happy and are excited about their big day, which is what you would expect from an engaged couple. The vendors that I’ve met as well are all lovely and helpful too!” She emphasizes the joy in witnessing the creativity of vendors and seeing their products and services come to life at weddings.
