Creating a Bespoke Package at Upthorpe Wood…. We don’t just do weddings!

We often receive messages from couples asking:

“How much would a bespoke package cost?”

And we completely understand why. Usually, it’s because you’re looking for something more flexible — or hoping to shape the day around your budget.

We love creating bespoke hire packages. Some of our most magical weddings have started exactly that way. As a dry hire venue, we can include as much or as little as required. Just let us know exactly what you require. Be that full co-ordination, cocktail bars or something much simpler such as basic venue hire.

But here’s the important bit:

We can’t give you an accurate quote until we understand what your day actually looks like.

Every event uses the space differently. The cost largely depends on how long you need the venue, how many guests you’re inviting, and what support you require. Without those details, any figure would just be a guess — and we’d rather do it properly.

What We Need From You

If our day or weekend hire doesn’t quite fit, we’re always happy to create something tailored. To do that, please send us:

• Total hire time

Include all setup and clear-down time. Our day hire allows one full day onsite, but we can quote for returning the following day if needed.

Don’t forget to factor in time your suppliers may need beforehand (caterers, florists, stylists, etc.).

Often couples ask about bespoke options because they’re hoping it will be cheaper. Sometimes it is. Sometimes it isn’t. It all depends on the finer details. If you have a budget you’re working to, let us know and we can create the most cost effective venue hire.

The clearer the picture, the more accurately we can guide you — and create a package that genuinely fits your plans.

Send us the full vision, and we’ll take it from there 🌿
