About

Game Gathering brings retro gaming hire to weddings across Lancashire and the North West. They deliver, set up and run everything — the couple and their guests simply enjoy the experience.

With 20+ consoles across multiple platforms including N64, SNES, PlayStation, Sega Mega Drive and GameCube, guests can play the classics they grew up with — Mario Kart, GoldenEye, Tekken, Guitar Hero, Rock Band and more. It's nostalgic, it's fun, and it works for every age group from kids to grandparents.

Retro gaming is the ultimate wedding ice-breaker. It gets guests laughing, competing and reminiscing — creating those spontaneous moments that make a wedding truly unforgettable. While the couple celebrates, Game Gathering handles everything: setup, running the kit, and packing down at the end of the night.
