5 Wedding Venues in Staffordshire
The Trentham Estate
We have some stunning backdrops for your wedding in Staffordshire, and The Trentham Estate is undoubtedly one of them.
The beautiful 725-acre estate offers the picture-perfect special day, with the renowned Italian Gardens, the majestic, listed Loggia, and hidden gems available exclusively to you if you choose Trentham as your venue.
The idyllic, clear-fronted marquee has a 150-seated capacity, and it’s fully licensed, enabling you to hold your ceremony and reception in the same place.
And you can site your own marquee or tipi on the estate if you prefer.
There’s a host of catering options too, including kitchen buyout if you require a halal or kosher menu.
You'll be able to explore all the options for your wedding at Trentham's Luxury Wedding Show on Monday 27th May. Find out more at https://www.enjoystaffordshire.com/whats-on/trentham-gardens-luxury-wedding-show-staffordshire-bank-holiday-monday-27th-may-2024-p2061021
You can also email weddings@trentham.co.uk with all wedding-related enquiries.
Drayton Manor Resort
If you’re looking for a unique and unusual wedding venue in Staffordshire, what could be better than the Drayton Manor Resort?
Start your happily ever after in one of the three suites, accommodating up to 230 guests for the wedding breakfast and up to 330 for your reception.
For your wedding photos, choose from the romance of the picturesque grounds, or the quirky setting of the famous theme park, on the carousel or beside the lake.
Weddings on a budget are catered for, with packages like Time for Tea providing quaint finger sandwiches and tempting cakes, rather than the full wedding breakfast.
And to make life easier for you, the Drayton Manor Wedding Co-ordinator can also organise entertainment, chair covers, table centrepieces and even your wedding cake!
