Wedding Ceremony Guide for Cheshire East Cheshire 2011 | Page 7

T
The east of Cheshire is an area of
outstanding natural beauty containing
picturesque towns and villages, hills,
rolling plains, woodlands, castles and
stately homes.
From the fashionable towns of the ‘Golden
Triangle’ to the magnificent countryside
in South Cheshire, we can offer a huge
variety of marriage venues to cater for all
tastes and budgets.
Choose to celebrate in a castle on
sandstone hills or in a magnificent
drawing room with spectacular views
across the grounds of a stately home.
Alternatively, why not choose a luxurious
boutique hotel with state of the art
facilities or a former monastery with its
own fruit tree maze?
Many of our venues have outstanding
gardens – one is in Britain’s top ten.
A frequent request from couples holding
their ceremony in Cheshire East has been
for their ceremony to be held outside
in those gardens. Starting in 2011,
between April and October and weather
permitting, we have offered this facility
to our venues. Legislation requires that
the short legal aspects of the marriage
ceremony will continue to be carried out
in one of the rooms at the venue approved
for civil marriage.
Wherever you choose, you can be sure
that venues within our area will provide
the perfect location for your perfect day.
If you have chosen a place that is not
licensed for ceremonies you can of course
have your ceremony at another venue –
but you can also encourage the venue to
telephone [phone] and speak with
us about obtaining a licence.
