General Manager

Rachel

I live with my husband, my 2 children, my step son & 3 dogs(!) yes it’s a very busy household but I wouldn’t change it for the world!

About me: I live with my husband, my 2 children, my step son & 3 dogs(!) yes it’s a very busy household but I wouldn’t change it for the world! When I started my role at Unique Venues in 2012 friends used to say ‘always the planner never the bride’ but that wasn’t the case for me as I got married at our stunning sister venue in July 2018 and had THE most amazing day!

Favourite hobby/pastime: When I’m not working, I’m usually with the kids at soft play(!) out walking with our dogs or enjoying a steak at Miller and Carter!

Favourite First Dance Song: Ed Sheeran – Perfect (my first dance song of course!)

Favourite part of the wedding: When father of the bride see’s his daughter for the first time in her wedding dress. I wasn’t fortunate enough to have my Dad walk me down the aisle, but knowing how much those memories will be cherished forever means the world!

Your favourite aspect/part of Bredenbury Court Barns: The reaction you get when you open the double doors into the Oak Barn for couples and guests! ‘Wow’, ‘Amazing’ ‘Look at those views’….!!

I grew up in South Africa and moved to the UK when I was 13. I live with my partner and our very fluffy cat in a tiny village and love hosting our friends and family with good food and South African wine!

About me: I grew up in South Africa and moved to the UK when I was 13 (I am completely bilingual in English and Afrikaans). I live with my partner and my Maine Coon cat, Max, in a tiny village and love hosting friends and family in our home with good food and South African wine.

Favourite pastime: I am a competitive Ballroom and Latin American dancer and have danced for 11 years! If I’m not wearing sparkly dresses on the competition floor you can normally find me in practice-wear in the studio. It’s a great hobby to help with any First Dance jitters!

Favourite first dance song: Can’t Help Falling in Love by Elvis Presley

Favourite part of a wedding: The first dance! I can always feel the relief and the “we did it” moment as the couple stare into each other’s eyes and sway to their perfect song. You can normally find me shedding a little tear as I watch from the corner.

Favourite part of Bredenbury Court Barns: My favourite part of the venue has to be the views. It takes my breath away every time I come down the drive, I love to stop my car and just take in the beauty and nature of all the countryside surrounding us. On the same note, the views from the Oak Barn are just surreal, how lucky are we!

Favourite hobby/pastime: Definitely the gym, cinema & going out for food

Favourite first dance song: I couldn’t possibly pick! They’re all amazing to watch & special to each couple.

Favourite part of a wedding: When the registrar announces the couple married and they get that special first kiss as a married couple.

Your favourite aspect/part of Bredenbury Court Barns: I love the Orangery and how the big Victorian windows let in so much natural light. Plus the terrace is such a nice sun trap, especially in the summer!

My favourite hobby/pastime: I love going to the gym and socialising with friends. I also love fashion so I guess you can say shopping is a hobby too!

My favourite first dance song: All of Me by John Legend

My favourite part of a wedding: When the groom sees the bride for the first time walking down the aisle. It's such a magical moment!

My favourite part of Bredenbury Court Barns: I love the Oak Barn and the subtle hints to our history as a deer park (for example, the big chandelier in the Atrium as you enter the venue!). I think the whole venue is so complimenting of its beautiful surroundings and the history of Bredenbury Court.
