Hi all
I've just signed up, I'm from South Liverpool but have been visiting your side frequently and prefer it
I'm hoping to get married next year but am having no luck finding a decent venue. I really liked Sheldrakes restaurant as I'm looking for something really relaxed and informal but they wanted £8000 minimum spend!!!
Does anyone know any lovely little hide away places that could be used for a wedding party.Max 100 guests and quite a few kids. I would be so grateful if anyone has any suggestions.
Thanks for reading

what about
Burton Manor

Thanks for that :)It looks lovely, bit pricey and posh for my sort though!

I'm thinking maybe a little old hall / hut to hire that I can do up myself and bring my own food and other bits as most places charge so much!

0k what about In thornton Hough,very picturesque village, there is the village hall and also a hall in the communtiy center (which is bigger)

Thanks..there's loads of places we haven't seen yet over there...the village looks nice.Everytime we visit were surprised at how nice places are..its like visiting a different country, we feel like were on holiday when we go.Yes I know..quite sad..I dont get out much!

lol. I know a V.good Dj if you need one, let me know

I here te grange is alriht, i went to a wedding last night actually in the village hotel, that was good too!

Welcome to the madness known as wiki!

went to a wedding earlier on at Poulton Vics club
Self catering and they let you use their kitchen for cooking/heating and provide tables in hall
My friend who is a minister cum DJ also did the catering/cooking

there is a Royden Hall in the Village of Frankby with a scouthut very near by.

If you use them and its a winter month make sure someone gets the heat on well before your guests arrive. My sister used that hall and it was chilly, even in April.

are you getting married in a particular church or registry office
or looking for a place that can perform marriages and also do the reception there
self catering or to be done by the place

KFC do a lovely meal in a bucket!

The Suite at Tranmere Rovers is nice. It was once called 'John Aldridge Suite' but I doubt its called that now.

cammell laird club is ok ,the new lauries center is ok too just depends what you want from it .had mine in the royal oak bromborough and done the two for one meals saved loads of money and it was a private room but with access to the rest of the pub .think we paid 50 for the room but it was lovely

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions...especially the KFC one!
I like the look of Ness gardens for the ceremony and then on to somewhere informal, not really a pub more like a hall, or something??I just want a really great buffet and dancing but nothing too cheesy or run down. Ive got something in my head but I'm probably never goin to get it! Think of english tea party, bunting, cakes, candles, summer evening ..kids able to play outside.I like the idea of being able to go off for a little wander if it gets too much, thats why I like Sheldrakes..but not at their prices!

....if anyone comes up with a really great suggestion you can come to the evening do!

My brother got married at Ness Gardens, was a bit different getting married in a gazeebo!! Turned out a realy good day, good spot to marry! Evening he had at Mollington Golf Club, Chester, but prob a bit out of the way for you! Most golf clubs can accomodate a wedding party, do your own food too, as they make their money over the bar!

Stay single,............where's the do

Not sure that was what he meant

well..if you tell me where the do is you can come!

Have a look at Brook Meadow Been to a wedding there and is a lovely pleace

Looks very nice but a bit too posh just want somewhere very informal.Went looking today, visited some nice villages but I think the kind of place I want is hidden away somewhere?!
I definitely would like ness gardens..but where from there?
Anyone got a bit of land with a barn or something?

other half is quite happy to not get married ( he's the one who asked me 4 years ago!) and plod along..but I'm gettin on a bit now and would like to a bit traditional for once in my life!

anyone?? you can have as many sausage rolls and egg butties as you want!

Little Stanney Village Hall looks nice and is a bit hidden but directly of a main road, but you would never know it was there unless you had a reason to go down that road. It is very close to chesire oaks and not a million miles away from ness gardens, unfortunatly I cant find any info on the internet about it, suppose this is a good thing as it keeps it more secret.

All I have is a google maps link;

Thanks Waddi....I will take a look and the sausage rolls may be yours

I'm a member of Heswall Golf club. We held a Christening there and the food is spot on. I probably got members rates, but the price was surprisingly cheap. The function room is upstairs and offers a vista of North Wales and the Dee. Best view on the Wirral other than the top of Thurstaston Hill. We also went to a 60th there but I don't remember it ;-)

Not far from Ness too and a travel lodge nearby for Guest accomodation!

Thanks ..very helpful

has anyone been to Gladstone Village Hall?

That looks ideal.

Yes its in Port sunlight

this is somewhere else....Burton I think?Its just a village hall.I know which one you mean gladstone theatre? I didnt realise thre was a theatre until recently, its lovely round there albeit a bit strange..like everthings stuck in a time warp - in a nice way though
