Of all the things you need to arrange for your wedding, the venue is perhaps one of the most important. After all, it plays a major part in how your big day will play out. From the size and the location to the catering and the photo opportunities, there’s so much to consider when choosing the right place for your wedding day.
As one of South Liverpool’s leading wedding venues, the team at Allerton Manor Golf Club knows a thing or two about what makes a great place for your special day. In this article, we look at some of the things you should keep in mind when choosing where to hold your wedding.
When it comes to the location of your wedding venue, you need to consider two things: what does it look like, and how easy is it to get to? Picking the most breathtaking building in the country doesn’t help if it’s next to impossible for your guests to find the place. Conversely, a convenient location shouldn’t mean you have to skimp on style. At Allerton Manor, you get the best of both worlds - a beautiful, Grade II Listed Building that is easily accessible from the A562.
Some venues provide you with a place to hold your wedding breakfast and reception and not much else. While you might be able to get such a location at a cheaper price, it leaves you with a lot more work to do getting it ready for your big day. When you book your wedding with Allerton Manor, you get our whole team on your side, led by one of our experienced wedding planners. They can assist you with everything from menu choices and decoration to timing and entertainment, making sure everything goes the way you want it.
You want your wedding guests to be well-fed and suitably refreshed throughout the day because nothing will put a damper on their memory of your wedding quite as quickly as an empty stomach. Does your venue offer the sort of food you want for your big day? Can they accommodate special dietary needs? Do they serve food for the evening reception as well as the wedding breakfast? At Allerton Manor, the answer to all three questions is yes—and so much more. Your wedding planner will help you choose from our various menu options, ensuring you have a food and drink selection that meets all your requirements.
This is a big consideration - you need to know that the venue you want can hold the number of people you plan to invite. The typical British wedding includes between 70 and 140 guests over the daytime and evening receptions, which puts us in the perfect category for most couples. Our Hay Loft function suite hosts 80 people for a sit-down wedding breakfast and up to 120 for a more casual evening do.
Capturing your wedding on film is a big deal, and it’s important to have an attractive backdrop for your first photos as a newlywed couple. With Allerton Manor Golf Club, you couldn’t ask for more pleasing surroundings. The building and grounds are stunning inside and out, giving you plenty of opportunity to get the perfect shot for a permanent reminder of your special day.
What would a wedding be without ample food and drink for you and your guests? At Allerton Manor, we make sure that every visitor to The Hay Loft leaves feeling fulfilled and happy. We have several menu options, each designed with care by our experienced head chef. Check out your choices below:
