The most perfect venue for our perfect day!

Lucy and the team at Capesthorne truly delivered an amazing day for us, but not only on the day, in the two years leading up and after they have been not only incredibly professional, but also delightful to work with. Their attention to detail, from the maintenance of the grounds, the finer details in the set up and in every aspect of how the day ran was second to none. I would get married at Capesthorne 100000 times if i could, it was just the most magical day!

The perfect venue

We would definitely recommend Capesthorne Hall to any of our friends and family for their wedding venue! It's the perfect setting for any size of wedding party and you can easily make it your own. Lucy and the team were amazing at coordinating our day. Lucy was our main point of contact, she was so lovely, professional and very organised, she made everything run so smoothly in the run up to the big day and on the day itself. We also stayed in the on site accommodation, which is beautiful.

August 2024 Wedding

Capesthorne was the perfect venue for our wedding. We had the Lakeside and it suited our every need. From viewing the venue right through to our wedding day the staff at Capesthorne were nothing but lovely to us, and it always felt like they had everything under control. There was no need for us to worry. Lucy in particular was always available for us to contact and nothing was too much trouble for her. We really couldn’t say thank you enough for everything.

In the safest hands

A quick note to say a huge thank you for all your help in the lead up to our wedding and a fabulous day on Saturday. I’m admittedly a bit of a control freak but Lynn, you absolutely put me at ease from the initial viewing, to answering all my erratic questions and executing a gorgeous event on Saturday. We felt we were in the safest hands and really appreciate you taking all the stress from us on the day. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day.

Everything was perfect and flowed so smoothly

We scoured Cheshire over 5 months to find reception venues. As quite a perfectionist one thing stood out immediately when we came for the first visit, the grounds are well maintained and pristine, a far cry from some of the wedding venues we visited. Little things like this make a huge difference. Every member of staff we ever met were incredibly lovely, friendly and helpful. We wish Capesthorne Hall every success in future events. Thank you!!

Venue was so lovely

I did a wedding here over Christmas and must say that this venue was so lovely. The staff were very friendly, chatted to you and were very helpful. I would say to any bride and groom looking to get married here, is to book them as you will not regret it.

We would 5* recommend Capesthorne Hall

We would 5* recommend Capesthorne Hall as a wedding venue. When my husband and I first visited we knew this was the venue for us. We loved the mix of the stately hall and more modern Lakeside Wing. The grounds are stunning and there are so many great spots for photos! The events team were fabulous and know exactly what they are doing. We initially met Lucy and later Lynn, both were lovely and very communicative. You could tell the team are very experienced at coordinating weddings and we felt ve

We truly had the best day

Thank you so much for everything, right from our very first visit all the way through to the day itself! Nothing was ever too much trouble and we truly appreciate every little thing! We feel so lucky to have got married at the beautiful Capesthorne Hall and the stunning grounds. The day was perfect and that’s largely down to you all, working away tirelessly in the background. We truly had the best day.
