Had the best wedding!

We absolutely loved having our wedding at Wickham Park in the Emerald Room. All of the staff were amazing and so easy to work with. Diana was such a tremendous help throughout the entire process. Our pictures came out amazing with the different backgrounds throughout the area too. I highly recommend this place.

Pamela and the staff at Wickham Park have been nothing short of fabulous for every event we have had the pleasure to have served there for many years now. They are always responsive to any question or request, whether it be from us directly or from the clients we have served there. There is never a difference in service between pavilion outings or Cabin weddings, and a staff member is always around to make sure every event goes as planned, and they treat them all as if they are the only one they are hosting that day. We strongly recommend Wickham Park for your next event, and look forward to providing our services there for many years to come.
