Perfect, couldn’t ask for more

From the start, communicating with the engine works was easy. They answered emails very fast and we were able to go for a viewing within the week. The staff are amazing leading up to the wedding, they send you numbers from the vendors they’ve worked with before, a mockup timeline and plenty of photos for inspiration. Our day went absolutely perfectly and would highly recommend using this venue. If we could do it all again, we would change nothing

Gorgeous & Professionally-Run

We got married at the Engine Works in October 2025 and would wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone.
With its industrial character and refined details, the venue has a cool and edgy vibe that is modern and stylish while still being inviting. We enjoyed having the different spaces for different elements of the day, such as having the ceremony in the Outhouse and our drinks/welcome reception in the Workshop.

The day itself ran perfectly. All the staff were so helpful and professional, and ensured everything went to plan and on time. We knew we were in safe hands which meant we could just switch off and enjoy it all.

We primarily worked with Hannah, who was fantastic. She was super responsive to any queries we had over the planning period, and the whole team were so flexible. She was in touch with all of our suppliers well in advance so they had all the information they needed, which really added to the smooth and relaxed vibe during the wedding.
On the day, Hannah kept us on track with everywhere we needed to be. She had my dress and veil fluffed for all the right moments (giving my MOH a run for her money!), and even sewed my husband’s plaid onto his jacket when his pin broke shortly before the ceremony. She even sent us some photos the team had taken from the day which was such a thoughtful touch.

Overall, this is an incredibly well-run venue with extremely professional but personable staff. We absolutely loved having our wedding here, and would recommend to anyone without hesitation.

Perfect day

An amazing venue! It rained all day on our wedding but it didn’t matter at the indoor spaces are so fabulous, plenty of space for our guests to explore - the outside spaces are a nice bonus if you get them. There is a lot to think about with this venue as it is a blank canvas but the team are super helpful and accommodating with a great list of recommended suppliers. The only place where there isn’t a lot of flexibility is when it comes to drinks, strictly no corkage for example, but the packages they have on offer are good and they did go as far as to let us customise a drinks package based on a mix and match with what they had. On the day the staff were absolutely incredible - even our guests were raving about them
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
