Laura Sent on 05/04/2024Everything we wanted and sooo much more!! ***HIGHLY RECOMMED*
I myself found 'The Arches' via 'Hitched' and from the very beginning the staff were amazing!
On trying to find our wedding venue, The Arches speaks for its self and that is why we booked it on our first visit.
Booking just three months prior to the date, it was a little out of the ordinary and with such a small amount of time the staff were so supportive and super organised.
The Arches is so beautiful, it was exactly what we wanted, everything under one roof, stunning industrial look, feel and amazing architecture.
On our wedding day the staff were exceptional, the food was outstanding (we will defiantly be booking in at the True North restaurant to re live our menu!), everything was so relaxed and ran so smoothly.
My myself, my husband and our guests were made to feel so welcome and never had an empty glass!
Sam (a member of staff) was fantastic!!! He brought my vision of a old school 'Hed Kandi' party to life! Along with our saxophone and bongo drums players it was a night to defiantly remember!
Highly recommend the campervan photo booth, so much fun and the photo guestbook is hilarious to look through of all our guests having such a good time.
I cannot recommend The Arches for your wedding or special event, you will not be disappointed.
Thank you so much, Jamie, Kat, Sam and all the outstanding team!

From start to finish, our experience with The Arches was amazing. We worked with Kat and Sam and there wasn’t a question they couldn’t help us with or a request they couldn’t fulfill. Sam especially went to extra lengths to ensure the wedding was our own and all our guests were extremely happy. We had the most incredible day and it was all thanks to them! -

Josie Sent on 29/01/2025Wonderful experience
Obviously, The Arches is a gorgeous space. You have a lot of freedom to make it your own too - I brought in practically a whole garden's worth of trees and greenery and they were super chill about it! They also did special cocktails behind the bar at the request of me and my spouse and they were very relaxed about us setting up early. It was such a great, chill team to work with.
The Arches team were also absolutely impeccable on the day. They covered a number of tasks that my bridesmaids had been prepped to do (handing out confetti, corralling the guests into the right places at the right times) and they were super professional and slick throughout. The food was delicious and the room turnaround was really quick. The staff were great with making sure me and my new husband always had a drink in our hand too!
Kat and Jamie were both very helpful, responding to emails within 1-2 days. We also had 2 face-to-face meetings with them about the day itself which was really useful; when you're booking a space a year in advance, you do forget a lot of details! But they were happy to have us visit and chat. Overall it was an absolutely brilliant day and great value for money. I'd highly, highly, highly recommend this space for your wedding.The Arches's reply:
Thank you Josie. We really loved all the personal touches and quirky elements that made your day special to you. Glad we could help. -

They couldn’t have been more helpful
The staff at the Arches were absolutely incredible. Nothing was too big an ask- they even helped us time keep on the day and kept unwanted guests away! Every request was met with a yes- they raised tables so we could get wheelchairs underneath, they helped us set up, they did special dietary requirements- they even changed guests food preferences on the day! We weren’t the most organised couple, but they never pushed, they just waited for our responses and couldn’t be easier to work with.
The food at the Arches was amazing- large portions, great food. And the venue was stunning. It was absolutely perfect for us. Thank you!The Arches's reply:
Thank you Hannah, that’s lovely to hear. Loved helping you create your beautiful big day and be part of your sensational year! -

Lauren Sent on 10/11/2024Our Wedding Day was total magic thanks to Arches team
Jamie, Kat, Sam and the team - you are amazing. Our big day was made so much more than we ever could have imagined. Thank you!
From the first discussions with Jamie, to our food tasting with Sam, to the impeccable communication with Kat, and the overseeing of the day itself with Jamie - wow. The most beautiful venue and an exceptional team. We were blown away by the efficiency of everything, the lead up and the day itself felt calm, relaxed and taken-care-of.
Everyone deserves to feel like we did getting married at The Arches!The Arches's reply:

Our whole experience with everyone at The Arches was absolutely amazing!!
From meeting Jamie when we first booked, emailing Kat throughout with any questions and Sam coordinating the day, everything was absolutely perfect and we had the best day of our lives.
Our tasting evening to choose food options was where things got real for us and the food was absolutely stunning.
Everyone who helped us could not do enough and made the whole planning experience so easy and enjoyable, meaning we felt very calm on the day!
Our vision totally came to light and the wedding package is such great value for what you got included.
Special shout out to Sam throughout the day, everything ran so smoothly and we wish we could do it all again, thankyou again! Would highly recommend and all of our family and friends loved it.The Arches's reply:
Thank you for your lovely review Fern. Glad you had a wonderful experience and the best day. It was a pleasure to be a part of it! -

The best day of our lives!!!!
From the very first meeting to have a look around the Arches the staff were amazing. The Arches is such a beautiful venue and we instantly fell in love with it. We had Sunday lunch at their sister restaurant True North and we were sold!!
The venue is beautiful, and even more special my Grandad used to work there when it was a carpet mill over 50 years ago!
Kat helped with our wedding planning throughout the whole process, no question was ever too much. She was so responsive to any queries and so helpful.
Sam, Jamie and the rest of the team were exceptional, they went above and beyond to make our day so special, it was the best day of our lives. It went so smoothly, and they even made our little dog Olive feel so welcome.
The food was outstanding, everyone was so impressed with the food and the size of the Yorkshire puddings! We cannot wait to visit True North to enjoy the delicious food all over again.
We cannot recommend The Arches enough, the Yorkshire hospitality was second to none.
A massive thank you to Jamie, Sam, Kat, and the rest of the amazing team at the Arches, thank you, thank you, thank you.
