We got married at the wool tower on Saturday, I cannot begin to describe how amazing the venue and the staff here are! From the moment we seen the venue we fell in love! All of the staff here where so friendly, helpful and professional but I have to give a massive thank you to Kathryn, she is one of a kind ❤️ she was fantastic from the beginning right up until the big day. She kept us both calm, nothing was too much to ask, she was just a delight! Everything went so smoothly and the venue was Styled beautifully! All of guests had a brilliant day and absolutely adored the venue! I cannot recommend anymore highly!

'wow what a venue'
We had our wedding at The Wool Tower in October and absolutely loved it as well as all our guests! People are still saying 'wow what a venue'. The staff were brilliant from day one of planning right up to the big day. The food was beautiful and the grounds are perfect for capturing photos of the bridal party. I'm dying to be a wedding guest at this venue to enjoy it from another angle 🥰😁

Our only wish is to redo this day again!
I don't know where to start about how amazing our wedding day was.. The wool tower itself was absolutely beautiful, on our wedding day nothing was too much trouble. Myself & Mark both felt welcomed from the minute we stepped inside and that continued right through to our wedding day, we were more than looked after.. Our day was more amazing than we even imagined. I would give anything to have our day all over again. We can't thank yous enough for everything yous done for us on & before our wedding day! This venue is by far the most beautiful we've seen & the staff are second to none! If you are considering booking your wedding here I can guarantee you will not be disappointed.. So thank you to all the team at the wool tower we had the best day of our lives, our only wish is to redo this day again! Mr & Mrs Hamilton ❤️

Could not have wished for a more beautiful day.
We got married at the beautiful Wool Tower on Saturday the 14th of August 2021 and we could not have wished for a more beautiful day. The venue was everything we wanted and being able to personalise things to suits our individual styles was exactly what we were after. The staff were all extremely helpful throughout the planning process and so attentive on the day making sure everything ran so smoothly!! We have had countless compliments from our guests about how stunning the venue was and we just wish we could do it all again!!!

We had the best day of our lives
Where do I start. I had a venue booked but we got messed around 5 weeks before our date! I contacted The Wool Tower and I'm not joking they took every ounce of stress and tears away from the second we viewed it. Our wedding day arrived and I cannot not put into words how incredible the staff were. Adam and Catherine were simply amazing and nothing was a hassle to them. Catherine was so good at helping with timings and giving a lot of advice too. The bar staff were second to none and done such a fantastic job. The whole team are a credit To Wool Tower management. We had the best day of our lives, in the most perfect wedding venue and with the most perfect staff. Our guests are still talking about the amazing food from the caterers who were just the best as well. I just want to thank yous again for everything you done for us. Anybody thinking of getting married at The Wool Tower....DO IT. You will have the most amazing wedding here. 👰🏼‍♀️👨‍💼❤❤

Describe the best wedding that happened at The Wool Tower?

Every wedding at the Wool Tower is special in it's own way, it would be impossible to pick! We have dedicated staff on hand to make sure every wedding is perfectly planned and ran smoothly. We have the luxury of two floors allowing dinner to take place upstairs in a separate area from the nighttime entertainment which gives a lovely flow to the evening as guests move back downstairs for the evening party without seeing any set up taking place.
