Our wedding took place in February this year and it really was one of the best days our our lives! We were wed in the Whittaker Room (former chapel), then moved through to the Parlour for the drinks reception, and then finally to the Great Hall (showstopper!) for the wedding breakfast and evening reception. The flow of the event and how everything was turned around so seamlessly was truly fantastic. The food and drinks were delicious, high quality and well presented. The team at Samlesbury were warm, friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful throughout the planning process up to the day itself. We visited Samlesbury Hall as our first wedding venue on our list, and we didn't need to visit any others. As soon as we drove down the lane and saw the imposing exterior and gorgeous medieval interior, we knew it was the place for us. Special shout out to Chester, Rebecca & Naomi, but also everyone else in the team that was part of making our wedding day so very special. We have some amazing memories and look forward to visiting for many years to come. Louise & Robert Pelham

Chadkirk Chapel was absolutely perfect for our intimate wedding. Even though the chapel could sit 80 it didn’t feel too big for our 20 guests to enjoy the ceremony. The venue had the traditional feel of a church location without the prayers and hymns. It was dressed beautifully although didn’t need much as the historic features and traditional feel was prefect on its own. Millie and Frank looked after us from Stockport Council on the day and they were wonderful. Carol organised up to the day and everything went perfectly. The only small downsides to Chadkirk and they are tiny details but the car park is around a 10 walk away for your guests. We were lucky as it had been dry buts it’s quite a walk in the rain and down the dirt path which would be muddy in the wrong season. Also you only have 2 hours hire for the venue so you have the hour before your ceremony (and suppliers cannot access until then giving them around 15-30 minutes before your guests arrive and then the 30 minute ceremony and then just 30 minutes for photos outside or in the rose garden. This was ok for us as we had main photos at the reception venue. On the day it didn’t feel rushed at all and was perfectly fine but beforehand it did cause some worry about feeling like a conveyor belt (as we didn’t realise until the final details meeting these were the rules). Please do not let the small things put you off considering or using Chadkirk. The photo doesn’t quite do it justice but for us it was a wonderful venue. We will be enjoying their annual Christmas concert so we can visit each year as it’s now so special for us

From the very start they were so helpful in planning out wedding, giving support and guidance and answering all our questions. I would highly recommend Mytton Fold as a wedding venue not only because of the above but the value for money.

Well what can we say.... From first meeting the lovely Heidi at Bramall Hall, she gave us great reassurance we were choosing the right venue for our wedding day. The Hall it self is beautiful, the gardens in full bloom too were stunning. The events team worked very closely with us to guarantee every detail was just as we wished for. We can only thank Heidi and her team for making our day truly special.

Very professional and accommodating team in what is a relatively new wedding venue. Lots of options for whatever type of day you want with helpful suggestions and guidance. Worked really well with other suppliers - we had a fabulous day, lots of compliments on the food

We had the most wonderful day at Chorley Golf Club. Michelle Lumby was so professional and friendly and looked after everyone so well. Also all the staff were so friendly and complimentary to me and made me feel so special. The food was excellent so compliments to the chef and hospitality staff. My brother who was in a wheelchair basis that he felt very well looked after by Michelle and staff for which I am very grateful. We will recommend you to everyone and we will always remember what a special lovely day it was. Thankyou to all.

We wanted to extend our heartfelt thank you to the wonderful townhall and staff who made our ceremony so special. It was a memorable day filled with joy, love and impeccable organisation from the start to finish. We got married on the marble staircase which was absolutely stunning and so unique - the photos look amazing! The team were so reliable, and always so structured, helping us to stay on top of our wedding plans/to do list. Would highly recommend!

Holmes Mill is a fantastic venue, especially if you are looking for a place that knows EXACTLY what it's doing. Nothing was too much, everything was thought of! Sam, the on-the-day function manager was a GOD SEND. The planners were amazing and helpful, super responsive and there for any of the many, many questions I had come up during the planning. This venue keeps it personal and professional and is absolutely gorgeous with so many options for fun. Holmes Mill is the one, you will not be disappointed.

We had the most perfect day, it was just over so quickly 😟 Honestly guys i cant even tell you how many comments we had on the room, we had a lot of comments saying that as soon as they walked in and saw the set up they were very emotional, so that was really nice and the effect we wanted, honestly it was beautiful. Helena was great, she not only coordinated everything perfectly, she also offered moral support (to mike, who was close to a nervous breakdown on the day with nerves lol) and she even laced up my dress, you dont get that everywhere lol, nothing was too much trouble, we honestly felt so comfortable. I honestly think the difference with you guys is we met you as a service provider but it honestly feels like you became our friends, you shared and encouraged (again, michael lol) our vision to enable us to have the most perfect day. We honestly cannot put into words how perfect it was and how much we appreciate you guys for all you did I can honestly say i wish you all to have the family, happiness and love myself and Michael have for each other, as with that you can take on the world Again, many thanks to allison, helena and all the team, you were honestly great x
