Your Whole Wedding in One Place!
Set in the heart of Sandbach, The Wheatsheaf is a beautifully restored 19th-century coaching inn, known for great food, warm hospitality and plenty of character.
We’ve welcomed many weddings, receptions and celebrations over the years, and now, with our licence to hold wedding ceremonies, couples can enjoy the entire day at The Wheatsheaf from start to finish.
Say “I do” on our heated outdoor terrace, gather for drinks in the Coaching Arch & Courtyard, sit down to your wedding breakfast, celebrate into the evening and then simply head upstairs to one of our 18 individually designed boutique bedrooms.
No travelling between venues, no taxis halfway through the day and no need to bring the celebrations to an early finish. Everything is here.
🥂 Proper hospitality, from the first drink to the last dance
Food and hospitality sit at the heart of what we do.
Our chefs create wedding menus with the same care we bring to the restaurant every day, while the bar keeps the Champagne, wine and cocktails flowing throughout the celebration.
🤍 Made personal
Our experienced team works closely with every couple, helping with the details and making sure the day feels relaxed, well looked after and completely yours.
And when the party is over, there’s nowhere else you need to be.
Stay the night, then come back together for breakfast the following morning and relive the best bits before everyone heads home.
We can host ceremonies and seated dining for up to 50 guests, and evening receptions for up to 120.
Sister venue to The Lion & Swan in Congleton, Hitched Wedding Awards 2026 winner.
Get married here. Dine here. Celebrate here. Stay here. Wake up and do breakfast here.
One coaching inn. Your whole wedding.

Meet the team
Hi, I’m Amy, Assistant General Manager here at The Wheatsheaf, Sandbach, and I also look after our events team.
I genuinely love being part of weddings here. There’s something really special about getting to know a couple, hearing all the little ideas they have for their day, and then seeing everything come together around them.
I’m very much a people person, so making sure couples and their guests feel comfortable, relaxed and properly looked after is probably my favourite part of the job. I love the buzz of an event day, seeing the venue full, and watching all those months of planning turn into something everyone can simply enjoy.
I’m lucky to work somewhere I really love, with a brilliant team around me, and I’m absolutely thriving in the events side of the role.
I’m always happy to sit down for a chat, show you around and help you start picturing how your day could come together here.
Hi, I’m Niall, General Manager here at The Wheatsheaf, Sandbach.
You’ll usually find me somewhere around the building making sure everything is running as it should, chatting with guests, or helping the team pull the day together.
Weddings are one of my favourite parts of the job because no two are ever quite the same. I love seeing the venue full of people, the atmosphere building, and everything coming together around the couple.
Hopefully I’ll get to welcome you to The Wheatsheaf very soon.
Hi, I’m Mark, Head Chef at The Wheatsheaf.
I’ve spent many years in busy kitchens, and I still love creating menus that feel right for the occasion. Weddings are always a special one for me, from planning the dishes to making sure every last detail is spot on when they leave the kitchen.
Good food should be one of the things people remember about the day, and that’s always the aim.
