    Our Wedding day was a dream come true!! Leading up to our big day, Steph (our event coordinator) did an incredible job at keeping us informed, supported, and valued. On our Wedding day, she was so helpful and went above and beyond to make our dream wedding – a reality. Thank you Steph, and for everyone else at Kwila involved. We would highly recommend to couples who are in the planning stages of picking a venue!

  • BRIDE VERONICA

    We got married on the 10th June 2024 and it was THE BEST EVER! Kwila Lodge was the most beautiful venue – we used The Manor, gardens and Great Lodge! The service and staff was fantastic and very attentive! and we got about 100 compliments on the feasting menu – all our guests loved it! We truly had the best day and would highly recommend to anyone considering this beautiful venue for their wedding day!

  • TIFFANY & ANDY

    Our wedding at Kwila Lodge was absolutely perfect, and we can't thank the team enough! From start to finish, everything was handled with such care and professionalism. The venue itself was stunning, and every corner provided a fantastic backdrop for our photos. The setting was nothing short of perfection, and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful place to celebrate our special day. We genuinely couldn’t have done it without the Kwila Lodge team. Thank you all for making our wedding day so magical and memorable!
