The Dodmoor Family
We are a close-knit team here at Dodmoor, working together to bring you the best day of your lives!
We were proud to win 'Best Team' in the National Wedding Awards and have twice won 'Best Venue' too!
We can't wait to meet you to start your wedding planning journey.
Without further ado, please meet the Dodmoor House family...
Mark & Louise
Mark and Louise are the husband and wife duo behind Dodmoor House!
They converted the barns from scratch in 2006, as they wanted to create a stylish and flexible venue, where couples can have the wedding day of their dreams.
Ever since, they have put their heart and soul into making Dodmoor an award-winning venue.
Carolyn
Carolyn is the longest serving member of staff, starting part time at the age of just 16 (when Dodmoor first opened!) and she has coordinated weddings here for more than a decade, she has many great stories to tell.
Carolyn even got married here herself in July 2017.
Her cheerful smile lights up the office!
Shona
Shona is a wedding coordinator and the operations guru who makes sure everything works in the venue!
She had her own wonderful wedding here at Dodmoor in September 2019.
It was one of the sunniest September days we've ever seen!
There was Mexican food and a saxophonist. A great mix for a wedding day, if you ask us.
Kara
Kara is a wedding coordinator, she is also in charge of keeping our social media platforms fresh and trendy!
Kara enjoys all things creative - she also commissions her paintings!
When she isn't painting, Kara is most likely shopping! Kara is always complimenting guests' outfits and loves all bridalwear!
Eleanor
Eleanor is a wedding coordinator here at Dodmoor HQ.
When Eleanor is not running a wedding you will often find her in our Day In Detail meetings, updating our social media or dealing with Dodmoors marketing.
When Eleanor isn't working, she is usually at a concert (she's been to 26 so far!)
Beth-rai
Beth-rai is one of our wedding coordinators.
When she isn't relaxing at home with her two dogs Remy and Rue, she is out exploring!
So far Beth-rai has done a bungee-jump, ghyll scrambling, canyoning, coasteering, zip wires, white water rafting and plummets. Her next adventure is a shark dive!
Chloe
Chloe is one of our wedding coordinators. She loves a passion-fruit martini!
Chloe has seven amazing birds at home. Two of these are Macaws, alongside a selection of smaller birds.
Blu the Macaw even sings the song... Tequila!
Marleen
Marleen is another one of our Wedding Coordinators. She delights in bringing love stories to life by running our 'Real Life Wedding' blog feature.
Marleen loves to read Rosamunde Pilcher's timeless novels, which aided her dream to move from Germany to England.
When she’s not orchestrating celebrations, you’ll find her belting out Shania Twain classics or spending a leisurely afternoon on the basketball court or the golf course.
Katie
Katie is one of our evening managers. When she isn't encouraging guests onto the dancefloor for the final song, she can be found at the bar serving drinks
She loves getting to know your guests and will always ensure they get home safely!
When she is not supervising your party she loves to throw parties of her own.
Robyn
Robyn is another one of our evening managers, although you may also see her helping to make sure everything is running smoothly on your special day.
She also helps Shona with all things operations, ensuring the venue is always looking it's best!
Robyn was in the Kings Troop Royal Horse Artillery for eight years... this would explain her amazing attention to detail!
Beci
Beci has been a wedding coordinator here since 2007; alongside organising weddings, she has been involved in private catering in a short break from Dodmoor, but we're glad that she's back!
Beci also celebrated her marriage at Dodmoor in December 2017!
Caitlin
Caitlin is our Venue and Wedding Assistant, and will be seen setting up, decorating, and personalising our Hire @ Dodmoor range.
Caitlin makes amazing cakes alongside working at Dodmoor.
Sophie
Sophie is a wedding coordinator and also helps with the marketing and exciting Dodmoor Blogs.
Engaged in New Zealand at the top of the Remarkables and married in October 2021!
Sophie is off on maternity leave at the moment- we cant wait for baby cuddles!
Bramble
You probably won't meet Bramble, but rest assured he is a huge part of Dodmoor life!
He likes to steal our lunch and bark at the postman, but he is very cute so gets away with it....
