The most beautiful venue
I couldn’t thank Liam enough for what was such a beautiful day for my husband and I. The whole process has felt easy and not stressful with Liam being on hand to help assist with the planning at every stage. The day itself felt so special, the venue just looked beautiful and the staff always helpful and friendly. We chose to have the high tea instead of the traditional wedding breakfast and this was delicious. The accommodation was really convenient and comfortable as well!
We would absolutely recommend the Lion & Swan as a venue, thank you so much to Liam and the team! -

Swann Wedding Day.
We recently held our wedding at the Lion & Swan Hotel in Congleton and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice.
The Wedding Team led by Liam were professional from the start to finish, taking care of every detail and ensuring the whole day ran smoothy. Their attention to detail meant we could relax and enjoy every moment.
The food, venue and overnight accommodation were all truly 5 star. One of the biggest advantages was that everything was included in one package - from catering, flowers and wedding cake to the entertainment, venue and accommodation.
Having everything organised under one roof took away so much of the stress that comes with planning a wedding.
If you are looking for an exceptional 5 - star wedding venue in the heart of cheshire you won’t be disappointed with the Lion Hotel in Congleton.
We would highly recommend it to anyone planning their special day.
Stunning venue and food if you are after something a little different. -

Most Incredible Venue✨
I don't even know where to start with this review... Firstly, Liam, you are an absolute godsend and made every step of the process stress-free and seamless. We had our wedding reception a few weeks after we got legally married and found the Radley & Co. venue to be perfect for having a celebration with our friends and family. The venue already had everything we could possibly ask for at a very reasonable cost but Liam was extremely accommodating to any special requests we had! The team on the night were incredible and made it possible for me to relax and not stress about anything. Radley's itself is just something so different to any other venue - we had so many compliments from guests who said they would consider it for their next big event and even our balloon supplier inquired whilst she was there haha! 2 weeks on and guests are still telling us how great the venue was (and that the food was amazing) and I am so so grateful that our original venue fell through as this was just everything and more. Thank you so much again to everyone at the Lion & Swan. We will definitely use Lion & Swan and Radley's again for any future big events we have. Thank youuuuu🤍🤍-

Gorgeous, vibrant venue for a real feel of celebration
We wanted a one venue wedding with excellent food! Living abroad meant we needed help with planning and sorting. Liam was amazing throughout the whole process. Nothing was too much to ask. Just so so helpful.
We chose the venue initially because we loved the Radleys space downstairs with its games, pool table and different areas.
The space for the ceremony and wedding breakfast is so light and joyful. Our winter wedding felt light and warm all day. The beautiful decor and stylish furnishings meant our wedding felt modern. We knew we didn’t want anywhere too old fashioned and stuffy. So many guests have commented on how the venue was fun, vibrant and felt really personal. Rooms are gorgeous too.
We had an incredible Wedding day at The Lion and Swan. We only wish we could do it all again. -

Simply Perfect - Highly Recommend
Everything was truly perfect from start to finish. The day was nothing short of amazing—filled with so much love, laughter, and pure joy. Every detail felt thoughtful, seamless, and beautifully executed, allowing us (and our guests) to be fully present and soak in every moment.
A special mention has to go to Liam, who was absolutely amazing. From start to finish, he was professional, calm, attentive, and genuinely cared about making the day perfect. His support and attention to detail made such a difference and helped everything run effortlessly.
The Lion & Swan is an absolute gem and without a doubt a rising star in the wedding industry. Their passion, professionalism, and eye for creating unforgettable experiences really shine through. The atmosphere they create is warm, elegant, and effortlessly special.
We couldn’t have imagined a better place to celebrate such an important day. If you’re considering The Lion & Swan—do it. You’ll be in the very best hands.

A amazing wedding reception!
We had the most amazing evening wedding reception at The Lion and Swan. From start to finish, the experience was flawless. All of our questions leading up to the big day were answered quickly and clearly—Liam was incredible, making sure every detail was spot-on.
The atmosphere on the night was perfect, the DJ kept the energy going, and the food was absolutely delicious. Our whole family had such a fantastic time and haven’t stopped talking about it.
We couldn’t have asked for anything better. Would 100% recommend The Lion and Swan for anyone looking for the perfect wedding reception venue!
Thank you Lion & Swan -

Perfect Wedding!
We recently had our wedding ceremony and reception at the Lion and Swan. Liam the wedding co-ordinator just made the whole affair effortless from start to finish. The personal attention he gave to us throughout was absolutely brilliant. The venue itself was just perfect, from a beautiful relaxed ceremony room, to exquisite dining in Pecks for the meal, catering for everyone's needs, completed by a fun filled party in Radley's. The staff, food, surroundings, service, absolutely everything was of the highest standard. The whole team created the most perfect magical day, that we and all of our guests will cherish. Heartfelt Thanks to all involved! -

AMAZING start to finish ❤️
No about of words could articulate how could our experience at the Lion and Swan has been from start to finish.
The whole team are professional, conscientious, and all go that extra mile.
Liam was beyond outstanding, a solid reliable person reachable at anytime thought the whole process nothing ever to much.
His attention to detail and his ability to absorb vasts amounts of information and more importantly visions were outstanding .
The day couldn’t have gone smoother and Liam was beside us every second of the day sorting and organising and basically conducting the whole wedding, it was truly a magical day that went not to plan but way way beyond anything we both dreamed or imagined ..🥰 -

Perfect Day from Start to Finish!
We had our wedding at The Lion and Swan and honestly, everything was absolutely spot on. From the moment we booked, the team made us feel completely at ease, and on the day itself, everything ran like clockwork.
Liam was amazing – so attentive, organised, and genuinely lovely to work with. He made sure every little detail was just right, and nothing was too much trouble.
The food was an absolute standout – 10/10 from all of our guests! Every course was beautifully presented and tasted incredible.
Radleys was the perfect setting for the evening – such a great atmosphere, and the live music really brought the night to life. Everyone was up dancing and having the best time. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team. Thank you to everyone at The Lion and Swan for making our day so special – we’ll never forget it! -
