Best wedding venue in the north west
Absolutely amazing!
The wedding team are amazing and kept us on track over the months of what we needed to organise and when. We wanted very minimal decor with it being Christmas and the amazing decorations at abbey house already being up and the team listened and delivered!
It was also our son's birthday and the team helped set up an amazing kids corner to help him relax and celebrate his birthday.
On the day I couldn't have been a more chilled out Bride knowing I was in safe hands.
The waiting on staff, bar staff and general staff around during the day couldn't have made the day anymore perfect for ourselves and our guests, they went the extra mile and allowed us to embrace the outdoor Christmas decorations during a last minute planning of sparkler photos.
The housekeeping staff also helped family members leave some memorable decor and gifts in our room as a lovely surprise 🩷
Amazing wedding at Abbey House Hotel
We chose Abbey House after attending a wedding open day in Autumn 2022 and being very impressed with the room set-up and wedding coordinators Laura and Lauren.
We then booked our wedding and Laura and Lauren were always on hand to guide us through every step of the process. They took time to get to know us as a couple and had a real understanding of what we wanted from our wedding day.
As Abbey House has strong relationships with local suppliers, Laura and Lauren were able to work with others on our behalf, which took a lot of stress out of the wedding planning.
On the day itself, Laura, Lauren and the team at Abbey House were absolutely amazing and nothing was too much trouble for them. They ensured we and our guests had a fantastic wedding day in a gorgeous setting with excellent food and entertainment.
We are so glad that we chose Abbey House for our special day.
Just the most perfect day.
The day was simply perfect.
Nothing was too much trouble.
The venue was exquisite and the wedding breakfast was first class.
Bridal suite was so very luxurious and every member of staff was so helpful polite and professional.
Photographs don’t really do it justice but we would have no hesitation in recommending Abbey House for a wedding.
Our Special Day.
Wedding Team are amazing from start to finish
Amazing from start to finish
The staff were so helpful from the very first visit, nothing was too much trouble when I was wanting to add this for our special day.
When the day came they made you feel like you were the only couple in the world that mattered. Everything went as smoothly as it could with the master of ceremonies announcing everything that was coming next.
It was the best day of our lives and I’d love to do it all again.
Thank you Abbey House.
