Dream wedding venue
Faced with the challenge of organising my dream wedding in under 5 weeks, Peckforton Castle really made the dream a reality. Eirian, the wedding coordinator made our preparation experience so easy and enjoyable. She was accommodating and efficient and it was such a pleasure working with her. On the day of the wedding, all the staff were amazing including the duty manager and they went out of their way to make our day special. The castle itself is a dream wedding venue so you don't have to burst your budget on wedding dressers or location shoots. Whatever the weather, the castle is amazing. I really want to thank Peckforton Castle for such a wonderful experience that I will never ever forget.Faced with the challenge of organising my dream wedding in under 5 weeks, Peckforton Castle really made the dream a reality.

Perfect place to get married!
We had such an amazing wedding at the castle, everyone was really helpful in the lead up to it and everything ran incredibly smoothly on the day without any real effort from us. Stunning venue as well and the food in particular is exceptional. Can't recommend highly enoughWe had such an amazing wedding at the castle, everyone was really helpful in the lead up to it and everything ran incredibly smoothly on the day without any real effort from us.

The wedding of dreams
I just want to start by saying a massive thank you to each member of staff who made our wedding as special as possible! It really was the best day of our lives and we couldn’t have hoped for a better venue! We were sold the moment we stepped in. An extra thank you to Molly and the incredible wedding coordinators who make all your ideas possible and to Rebecca for making our day run as smooth as possible! The food on the day was incredible and all of our guests said how amazing it was and the drinks service was brilliant! From start to finish everything has been perfect! If you’re thinking of having your wedding here you most definitely won’t be disappointed!I just want to start by saying a massive thank you to each member of staff who made our wedding as special as possible!

We had an absolutely amazing experience with Peckforton.
The castle venue and decoration was what instantly won over my partner and we thought the location was beautiful with the woodland.
It wasn’t until the day did we truly appreciate the staff that work there though! They were tirelessly working all day to bring our special day to life and no request was too big of them.
I’d been emailing constantly in the weeks prior and gave them a few bits to set up and not a single thing was missed or not in the right place.
Anna, our wedding coordinator was particularly amazing and coaxed us through the day with a massive smile and many kind words. She was quick to check in and ensure we had everything we needed and was very friendly and approachable throughout.
The biggest thing for us though was the absolute attentiveness of the castle staff. I’ve recently been diagnosed with gluten intolerance and was concerned how this may affect my day. Every staff member seemed to be aware and ensured I always had the right food, one going as far to request special food for me in the evening and catering to my every need. We both felt so well treated by all of them and they even helped us and waited for our bags with us in the evening.
Honestly couldn’t recommend more, and it has nothing to do with the venue and all to do with the people that work there.We had an absolutely amazing experience with Peckforton.

Spectacular venue
We had a quite a few viewings booked at various different wedding venues and Peckforton Castle was the first one we saw. We cancelled all the other viewings after we went as we knew this was the one! The venue is spectacular, if you’re looking for the wow factor then getting married in a castle certainly ticks that box. It’s obviously not the cheapest but it is possible to get some good deals - we managed to get a bank holiday Sunday booking just four months in advance and the cost wasn’t extortionate, although maybe we got lucky. Throughout the day the guests couldn’t stop saying how fantastic the venue was, and even since then when people talk about our wedding they always mention what an amazing venue it is. The great hall is perfect for the ceremony if you’re not religious as it has the feel of a church. We also used the great hall for the reception which worked really well. I would definitely recommend this venue for a memorable wedding.We had a quite a few viewings booked at various different wedding venues and Peckforton Castle was the first one we saw.

Everything was perfect from the moment we met for a walk round to view the venue to making our fairytale wedding come true! The wedding team were always on hand and very responsive via email. They were amazing on the day with coordinating the wedding, keeping everything running smoothly and keeping people happy! I have no words but thank you!!

Wedding October 2024
We got married at Peckforton Castle in October 2024. From first impressions to the final result on the day, the team at Peckforton were exceptional. Peckforton operates like a well-oiled machine. Our wedding day went incredibly smoothly, all requests were faultlessly actioned and everything was executed to an exceptional standard, right down to the finest details and refinements. The team at Peckforton were not only fantastic logistically, but did an incredible job of continuously working with us as a wedding couple to minimise any potential stresses or concerns. They certainly ensured that our wedding was that "special day" that everyone hopes for, and we can't thank them enough. Special mention to Molly who was amazing from start to finish.We got married at Peckforton Castle in October 2024.

Magical Wedding Day
We got married on 13th October and the whole day was brilliant! From the time my bridal party arrived the day before the staff went above and beyond to make us feel special. We found the planning a bit stressful at times, as we changed wedding coordinators but everything went according to plan. Would definitely recommend!We got married on 13th October and the whole day was brilliant!
