The perfect backdrop for a winter wedding
"Their choice of venue, Carlton Towers, provided the perfect backdrop for a winter wedding with its high ceilings, sweeping staircase and ornate chandeliers."

The perfect place
Carlton Towers was the first venue that we viewed for our wedding. We knew instantly that it was the perfect place for us to bring all of our friends and family. The venue is hidden away on a large piece of private land, with an impressive drive onto the property for guests to take in the grandeur of the estate. One of the great things about Carlton Towers, is that you get exclusive use on your big day. The food is exceptional and they catered very well for our multi-cultural wedding.

Great Professional Service
Fantastic location for a wedding. We went for a Friday and Saturday for a wedding weekend, and they literally could not do enough for you with the service. The location is stunning....historic yet welcoming, and very private and quiet. If you stay overnight, the rooms are all bespoke and fantastic in their own way. The food was amazing as well and great professional service. If you are looking for a great wedding venue or a unique weekend away, I would highly recommend this place!

The venue was just perfection
We got married here in January 23 and it was incredible. It was actually the first venue we looked at and we walked out of our tour just knowing it was the one. After visiting several venues we came back and booked Carlton Towers. From start to finish they could not have been more helpful with organising the wedding..The food was perfection and the portions were perfect - no one was hungry! The day itself ran so smoothly, all the guests were well looked after, the venue was just perfection.

Wow! What can I say, Carlton Towers is a truly incredible wedding venue. Janet and Sam are truly amazing and listen to your every wish and dream. They are so patient, communication is fantastic and they both go the extra mile to ensure absolutely everything is perfect! Our wedding was everything we ever dreamed for, we had the most amazing comments about the venue from everyone who attended. I can’t recommend Carlton Towers enough, it’s truly amazing! Thank you so much for making our special day so memorable! Lots of Love Moira and Colin

Truly Amazing
Our wedding at Carlton Towers was truly amazing, wish we could do it all over again. Our wedding photographer was Calvin Lee Taylor and he was fantastic. We also had our wedding videoed using To have and to hold films. Flowers and dressing of room was All occasions florist in Howden.

A day we will never forget
It really wouldn’t have been the day it was without all the staff so thank you. We had an amazing day and would do it again if we could. I’m just gutted I missed out on one of the fish fingers sandwich’s as they looked amazing and we had so much positive feedback about them! Photographer : Chris Chambers

Wouldn't change a thing
Couldn't be happier with our venue, such a beautiful and grand place, with the wow factor, but then the welcome made you feel right at home. Staff were fantastic and made everything so easy, we felt everything was in hand in the build up and could relax and enjoy every moment on the big day. Guests loved the venue and still comment to this on how much they enjoyed being there. Wouldn't change a thing!

Overwhelmingly positive
In truth we don’t really have any suggestions. Our feedback is overwhelmingly positive! We actually just got back our video of the day which reminded me that this email was outstanding. So first of all Josie, you are amazing. You were one of our favourite things about booking Carlton. The venue itself was stunning as you know and everyone commented on it. But I honestly believe that the venue looking good alone wouldn’t be enough. The entire team is so switched on and made our day amazing. From yourself in the morning right through until Dave the night man. Being able to stay over at the venue was perfect for us and the whole process of getting people to their rooms was effortless. I literally can’t think of a way to describe the special place in my heart that Carlton Towers now has.
