Spring wedding

Booked 2 years in advance so after the initial booking we didn’t have too much correspondence which is fine as the important details were booked in at the appropriate times, however if I did need to ask anything it was always answered.

On the actual wedding day all the staff from Paul, Heather and Samuel to all onsite staff were brilliant, I’d mention one lady in particular but I didn’t catch her name however she took a last minute picture in the loft and was just so lovely and kind all day and at breakfast the next day, hopefully if she reads this she knows it’s her!

Everything we bought to have set up for the ceremony and wedding breakfast was placed just as we asked, loved the little touch of a pizza each being delivered to our room at the end of the evening too so we didn’t miss out on the evening food (which was pizza) - it was thoroughly enjoyed!

We had a brilliant time. The only thing I’d say we were sad to miss out on was a ‘taster’ evening, the only one offered to us was a couple of weeks before our wedding day which we’d already had our final choices meetings so it felt a bit useless to pay to have a taster evening.

Perfect from start to finish

We planned our Winter wedding in just 10 weeks with the expert help of Paul, Heather, Chloe and the team. Their experience and guidance was exceptional and helped make our day go very smoothly. They advised us step by step either in person, or by telephone or email. All our guests loved our venue, from the beautiful rooms which were decorated with tasteful Christmas decorations, to the fab food, the amazing scenery and the friendliness from all the staff who were on duty. We took advantage of all the guest accommodation, which was perfect for our friends who had travelled far or those who lived closer and just fancied a nights stay. We enjoyed the fact that the whole venue was ours for the day, including the bars, sitting rooms and all the outdoor space, this was the crucial factor for us and the reason why we chose Blakelands, add to this the beautiful setting in the Staffordshire countryside, it provided the perfect venue for our special day.

Beautiful Venue!

Our wedding day was amazing! Blakelands is such a lovely venue. As we got married on the 6th December, the whole venue was decorated for Christmas and it was magical.
We would recommend Blakelands to all couples that want a Christmas wedding.

When it comes to weddings Blakelands is unmatched.
Blakelands is a fantastic wedding venue and we couldn't recommend them enough. The Blakelands team met our every need from the moment we booked our wedding in 2024 right up until our wedding day itself. Any query we had, regardless of how long or short was resolved professionally within a short time frame. Every person we spoke to were genuinely surprised at how relaxed we were regarding our wedding planning, we feel that this was entirely down to the fantastic organisation of the Blakelands team and making the entire process stress free. Our wedding day was incredible and faultless. All of our guests commented on the beautiful venue alongside the quality of the food and the large portion sizes, especially compared to other weddings they'd attended. Blakelands is an incredible venue, if you're planning your wedding in the near future 100% get yourself booked onto one of their open days! You won't be disappointed!

Our perfect wedding

Myself and my now husband had our reception at Blakelands following our wedding at St Mary’s church. We had the most magical day! Paul, Heather and Chloe were great! We had an initial meeting with Paul & Heather to show us around Blakelands and to explain what packages etc were available. The team were always available to answer any questions in the lead up to our wedding. Blakelands is just beautiful and gave our quests so much room to relax and enjoy our day. Plus the food is amazing! Highly recommend!

Wow! What a day!

A huge thank you to the whole Blakelands team who made our day just perfect in every way and so US! Heather, Paul & Chloe were so supportive and accommodating throughout the whole planning experience, offering advice, recommendations & support fitting everything we wanted into our budget. All of our guests had the most amazing time and even a slight downpour mid ceremony did not stop us having our dream of an outside ceremony. The house & grounds are just gorgeous & steeped in history which meant so much to us both. The day went so smoothly and we truly we treated like royalty, especially our little cavapoo Sunny who made a guest appearance! The food was just to die for and the freshly made pizzas on the evening went down a treat! We cannot thank you enough for such an amazing day!
Love & best wishes

The Blakelands Estate ✨

From the very first visit, Blakelands Estate offered so many wonderful options to perfectly suit our needs. The communication throughout was fantastic, and every single member of staff was so helpful and genuinely invested in making our day special.

The grounds are simply beautiful, and the food was absolutely amazing – so many of our guests commented on it. The team went above and beyond to make us feel completely at ease. They even decorated the venue for us, which took away so much of the stress and allowed us to truly enjoy the build-up to the day. Being able to drop everything off the day before was such a relief, and the Loft for getting ready in was a lovely, thoughtful touch.

We also felt incredibly privileged to be only the third couple to marry in front of the house – a setting that made our ceremony feel truly unique and unforgettable.

Blakelands Estate will always hold a special place in our hearts. It was everything we dreamed of and more.

Thank you for making it such a special day for us!

Perfect day!

We had such a perfect wedding at Blakelands, which was all down to the amazing staff and beautiful setting.
We fell in love with Blakelands from the second we walked in and booked it there and then. We didn’t even need to speak about it!
From that moment on, planning the wedding was a dream with Chloe, the wedding coordinator making things so much easier. I can’t praise her kindness and professionalism enough.
We used most of Blakelands in house supplies but they also give you the freedom to choose your own if you wanted. Saying that, we are so please with our choice. The food and decor had so many compliments from our guests. Blakelands is a family run business, which is clear with how much thought, effort and energy they put into their weddings.
Thank you Blakelands!

Most amazing day!

Blakelands proved to be our perfect venue! The day went completely smoothly, we had our ceremony outdoors on the walled lawns as we always wanted to marry outside & it was perfect! Paul was brilliant on the day, his communication between us & the team was amazing & couldn't have asked for it to have gone better. The decoration was beautiful, exactly how we had asked for & imagined & the food/drink throughout the day was amazing too! The bridal suite was stunning & breakfast was lovely the next day. Thank you so much all! 😊

The food—incredible! Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was. From the canapes and the wedding breakfast to the evening reception food and even breakfast the next morning, it was faultless!

We are so grateful to the entire team at Blakelands for helping to make our wedding unforgettable. They genuinely care about what they do, and it shows in every detail. If you're looking for a venue that’s as professional as it is beautiful, look no further. This place is a gem!
