Absolutely fantastic vow renewal
We had the most perfect day, it was just over so quickly 😟 Honestly guys i cant even tell you how many comments we had on the room, we had a lot of comments saying that as soon as they walked in and saw the set up they were very emotional, so that was really nice and the effect we wanted, honestly it was beautiful. Helena was great, she not only coordinated everything perfectly, she also offered moral support (to mike, who was close to a nervous breakdown on the day with nerves lol) and she even laced up my dress, you dont get that everywhere lol, nothing was too much trouble, we honestly felt so comfortable. I honestly think the difference with you guys is we met you as a service provider but it honestly feels like you became our friends, you shared and encouraged (again, michael lol) our vision to enable us to have the most perfect day. We honestly cannot put into words how perfect it was and how much we appreciate you guys for all you did I can honestly say i wish you all to have the family, happiness and love myself and Michael have for each other, as with that you can take on the world Again, many thanks to allison, helena and all the team, you were honestly great x

The perfect wedding day
My partner and I got married here in November 2023 and we could not be happier with how the day went! We fell in love with the venue on our first visit. Its location and the unique character of the building made it stand out from others that we had viewed. From viewing the venue, right up to the big day, Helena and the Bowdon Rooms team were incredibly helpful and were always on hand to answer any questions we had, no matter how small. We were made to feel at ease throughout the whole planning process. Helena made every effort to ensure that each and every small detail was captured and communicated to everyone. As a result, the entire day was amazing and ran smoothly from start to finish. All of the guests at our wedding commented on how professional and friendly the team were and we could not agree more. The venue looked amazing and was decorated beautifully for all aspects of the day, from the ceremony, wedding breakfast and the evening reception. Honestly, if you’re even thinking of booking this venue for your wedding (or any other event) don’t think about it….just do it. We cannot recommend this venue enough. Thank you so much to the Bowdon Rooms team for all of their hard work to make our day truly magical – it was perfect! It’s definitely one we’ll never forget.

Bowdon Rooms Wedding Event October 2023
The Bowdon Rooms is a lovely wedding venue. The interior is fresh and attractive with plenty of space for guests and evening entertainment. The events manager guided and supported us through the options available in hiring the venue. We choose a package offering with catering included and on reflection, we have no regrets in that selection. The included on site catering was excellent and the events manager communicated and worked with us very well very in organising our day at the venue. This included accommodating a piano player and a 35 piece showband in the evening. The catering and staff at the venue are excellent. If you looking for a wedding venue go have a chat with them and they’ll arrange to show you around the venue.

Outstanding
The Bowdon Rooms were amazing. Allison, Héléna and the team were outstanding. Their attention to detail is second to none and we had nothing to worry about. From our first initial enquiry, right through to the wedding day itself Any questions we had were dealt with quickly. They put us at ease and let us enjoy the day. We couldn’t recommend The Bowdon Rooms enough for a wedding. Our guests were blown away and we’ve had nothing but compliments since. A beautiful unique venue.

What an exemplary venue
I thought as it’s human nature for people to moan about stuff to do the very opposite. So an enormous big up to you all at the Bowdon Rooms for Saturday 23rd. My partner and I agreed that it was a simply perfect event made so by the venue ,the food and especially the staff who were exemplary. Ed and Alison, you have taken this iconic beautiful Cheshire venue and revisited and reinvented it through love and professionalism, this has filtered down through the staff and their approach. We were mere guests yesterday taking some pictures for our friends but we were made to feel special as well. I fabulous big thank you to you all bloody well done
