Dream wedding

We got married here in April 2023 and it was honestly the best day of our lives! The moment we stepped into the venue to view it, we knew it was the one for us. The cosy, whimsical, rustic yet modern vibes were everything we dreamed off to create our intimate woodland wonderland wedding! All the glass and windows really allow for natural light and make the whole place feel like the outside has come inside (with the additions of open fires) making the venue amazing for any time of year. The staff were absolutely incredible and honestly could not have done more for us. They put our minds at ease and took control of absolutely everything and the whole day went by so so smoothly and perfectly. The guests are still talking about the beautiful hidden gem of a venue and the wonderful staff who work there. A special shout out to Megan (our wedding coordinator for the day) who was literally a star - you helped us so much with always the biggest smile. Thank you all so much for helping us have the most incredible day of our lives!

The best venue!

We had such a wonderful experience with the Oak Tree of Peover. From start to finish, they were attentive and professional. Their communication was clear with good organisation. On the day, the place was spotless and looked stunning. Everything ran seamlessly and Tracy and Megan told us what was happening and directed our guests towards the next activity of the evening. The bar staff were super lovely, and helped us during a music blip. Everyone went above and beyond mine and my husband’s expectations. Can’t thank enough for a wonderful experience.

The wonderful Oak Tree

We got married on 08MAR2024 and the day was fantastic from start to finish. All of the staff were very helpful and friendly, especially our wedding coordinator, Megan. The day ran very smoothly thanks to all the staff at the oak tree. They are quick to respond via email or phone with any queries, even last minute things a few days before the big day itself. We could not have asked for a better venue, we feel it was value for money, in a lovely location and looked stunning. Many of our guests had travelled from far away to celebrate with us and all commented on how beautiful the venue was. To anyone considering the oak tree as their wedding venue, I would say, go for it! Its not something you would ever regret!

An unforgettable day

We got married at The Oak Tree of Peover earlier this month and words cannot describe how perfect the venue was for our special day! The interior was magnificent with all the wooden beams and glass alongside the beautiful outdoors which were perfect for our handmade garden games.

Everyone we spoke to from the first look round to our final goodbyes on our wedding night were extremely friendly and professional. We'd also like to thank the bar staff for their hard work on the night ensuring everyone was served quickly ready to go back on the dance floor!

The team at The Oak Tree ensured we had everything we wanted on our special day and we'd like to thank Megan especially for ensuring all the fine details were confirmed so that our big day was perfect and stress free.

The venue was the perfect backdrop for our special day and all our guests kept complimenting us on our choice of venue and even said it was one of the best weddings they'd been to in a long time!

Thank you all very much for making sure our special day was one we won't forget!

Lovely venue but staff left something to be desired

Our wedding here was very intimate, so we had a small guest list and acknowledge that less staff would be needed for our wedding. What we didn't anticipate was to have only two staff members for the evening who was often out of sight (sitting behind the bar on the floor talking) and picking at the decor that we brought (one staff member was taking flowers from the garlands we brought and pulling petals out of it when I came into the bar). I felt let down by the venue. Our wedding coordinator Tracy left in the afternoon (which she had informed us about in our final wedding meeting) but I thought that we would have been left in good hands. The staff failed to use our designated playlists that we provided on a spare phone which had clearly labelled playlists for each part of the day. Guests often heard repeated songs or no music whatsoever when neither of the staff members would move the music onto the next playlist. Towards the end of the night, they ended up taking our phone off and using their own music. Our wedding breakfast was half in silence, even though I provided a playlist to play, which made it slightly awkward with it being such an intimate wedding. It felt like we were purposefully given a bad experience because we had a smaller guest list. I wouldn't recommend this venue to those who are looking for somewhere with a smaller wedding as I don't think the staff are super attentive.

The most stunning venue and amazing staff

If you're looking for that rustic but classy look, then this venue is perfect! The rooms are large and bright with their own greenery running through the oak beams. The outdoor space is fantastic! (We didn't quite get the weather for the ceremony but it made for a great group picture area when the sun eventually made its appearance!). The outdoor seating areas made for a cosy place the chill in front of the fires just out of reach from any rain.

From fluffing my dress before the aisle walk, to helping us keep calm with a cake fiasco! We cannot thank the staff enough for making our day so special and running smoothly. They had super quick response times to any questions we had and helped us through any ideas we had thought of.
We look forward to having a visit around our anniversary!

Helped make our day perfect!

What a venue!! Thank you so much to The Oak Tree who helped make our day perfect. From the initial communications, to the open days and follow up meetings I felt valued and listened to. The Oak Tree shared their knowledge and expertise and created our perfect day tailored to us. Megan ensured everything ran smoothly and there was not one hiccup (that she let us know about anyway!) The Oak Tree's communication style was relaxed and not pushy but very professional and always answered my queries quickly. Cannot thank them enough.

Incredible venue & incredible staff

Honestly, my words can't do justice to how magical a feel Oak Tree gave our wedding day (and that's coming from the groom). It's such a beautiful venue and the staff really can't do enough to help.
We've received a never ending supply of compliments from guests even after a month on from the wedding about how amazing the venue and the day was, and the staff really helped to contribute a lot.
We don't have a single regret looking back on the day and can't thank Oak Tree & staff enough for the amazing service provided.

Wedding Venue of our dreams!

Just wanted to say a massive thank you to the folks over at Oak Tree of Peover for helping to facilitate our dream wedding. From our very first viewing when we were looking around for a venue, we just knew when we met the team and visited the space, that we had to get married there. The team were nothing short of helpful in answering our questions, connecting us with suppliers and accommodating our requests during the latter stages of the planning. They were an absolute joy to work with, and we highly recommend them if you’re looking to get married at a venue that provides multiple indoor spaces as well as extensive grounds with an ethereal feel, managed by a crew of warm and professional staff.

Ten stars!

Where to begin…if we could give this place 10 stars we would!
The Oak Tree of Peover is the most incredible, beautiful, and unique wedding venue and we couldn’t be happier that we chose to have our wedding there. From the day we viewed the venue, to the visits we had during the wedding process, and of course to the day itself, the team couldn’t have been more helpful, accommodating and just generally lovely. Megan was our wedding coordinator and is AMAZING! Nothing was too much trouble, we knew that she had everything in hand and neither of us felt one ounce of stress on the day with regards to how it was being run.
All of our guests kept telling us how beautiful the venue was and were wondering how we have stumbled across this beautiful place.
Thank you so much to everyone at The Oak Tree for giving us the most magical and memorable wedding day!
