Chester Zoo

Throughout the planning process and on the day, the team at Chester Zoo were incredible! Our wedding ran so smoothly and the food was incredible!!! Everyone was so unbelievably helpful and I couldn't have wished for a better venue for our wedding!

The day went better than we imagined it could ever go! Frankie has been absolutely amazing with all of the planning and went above and beyond to meet our needs throughout the process. On the day Shaun, Magda and Ian were absolutely fantastic, could not do enough for us, they and their team of amazing staff made the day flow so well. Also the rangers who took our guests out on an amazing tour were brilliant, they even had other ideas for when it was briefly raining which was very much appreciated. I would recommend getting married at The Oakfield at Chester Zoo as it is an incredible venue with so much character and class and the whole day is a memory which will last forever, thank you so much for making it the best day of our lives.

We had the best day ever! We would highly recommend getting married at Chester zoo! Thanks again to the team for everything they did to prepare for the day and on the actual day! Mr and Mrs Moore x

I don't think I'll ever be able to recommend Chester Zoo as a wedding venue enough. The wedding coordinators couldn't do enough to help on all sides of the planning and organisation. This made it super easy to just focus on the final touches to make it as personal as possible. The day itself ran seamlessly and I was never pestered about anything so was able to just fully immerse myself in the day. We had so many people coming up to us saying that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The guests were able to go around the zoo and we got some amazing pictures both inside the venue and whilst we were walking around. The quality of everything right down to the food was incredible, the food is the best wedding food I've ever had. The best part is that your money is also going to conservation so it doesn't feel like your money is being wasted as you know that your wedding is doing good even after it's over. I would recommend getting a zoo membership though as we ended up getting far too tempted after our wedding meetings and ended up buying lots of zoo tickets in the build up to the wedding!

Zaina and I just wanted to drop an email to say a massive thank you for Saturday. The entire team was incredible, very attentive and accommodating. Everything ran like clockwork but wasn’t too regimented and the organisation and change over of things were seemless (to us anyway). The room looked wonderful and will be a talking point for a long time to come for some of our guests. They really enjoyed going into the zoo between ceremony and food.

The food was excellent! Staff were very helpful, helping me to carry plates to our table! We were incredibly impressed with the organisation, the friendliness of staff and the care shown to us. Thank you!
