The Perfect Wedding Venue

How long have you been dreaming of this moment when you start searching for the perfect wedding venue for your wedding?

It’s just so exciting, isn’t it….

Or is it?



How are you feeling about your wedding venue search?

You see many wedding venues are going to talk about their facilities and what they offer. In case you are wondering with our venue you get exclusive access to the farm and grounds for your special day, this includes all our facilities including two barns, two bars, two ceremony areas and so much more.

Please view our quick links area for prices and everything that is included >>

But does the venue and the team really understand you and what YOU want from YOUR special day?

A Wedding Venue Surrounded by People you Love

We are guessing that you want a day where you are going to be surrounded by all the people who have touched your lives from when you were a child until now?

You are after an epic experience and memory; to celebrate your new life together with everyone you love present.

Emotional Wedding Planning

The real emotional stages of wedding planning come next….

Excitement – pop the champagne it’s really happening but goodness it’s a big commitment,
Naivety around the costs of everything and how much work is involved,
Determination – your vision starts coming together but you’ve got to be super organised,
Overconfidence and doubt creep in – you start to panic,
Decision fatigue – saps your energy and can put a strain on your relationship,
Calm acceptance.

On-the-day Coordination

We ensure your day runs smoothly – and to time- so just relax and enjoy a stress-free day while we take care of everything.

There’s a lot that goes into planning and coordinating a wedding and we are here to make it easy! Once you book your wedding venue with us, we will meet you up to three times (depending on what package you choose) to ease your stress and stop you from worrying!



Meet with us….

(1) Six months before your big day – for a wedding venue style meeting – where we will help you design your table layout, begin your wedding day timeline, choose your wedding colours and design your décor.

(2) Three months before your big day – you’ll have been for a tasting where you will get to taste our food and have assistance in creating your wedding feast selections.

(3) One month before your big day – we will wrap up all of the details for your amazing wedding.

Remember: the only thing you have to do is make sure the ceremony is legal. Everything else that ‘always’ happens at weddings is just people following old traditions. You can do whatever you like!

Decorating the Wedding Venue

We know how time-consuming, costly and stressful it can be to spend hours searching for wedding venue décor and those extra ‘touches’ which make your day your own. It’s also very wasteful because when will you use the items again?

We named our venue The Wellbeing Farm as we take the stress away from you – providing everything you need to make your day as WOW as possible without the stress!

The cost of hiring The Wellbeing Farm includes a large number of items and services you might pay extra for at other venues.



Our Prop Shed

Justly named, Aladdin’s cave, our Prop Shed is packed full of items to personalise your wedding for you to use for FREE. Contrary to popular belief, DIY weddings are not low cost, and if you added up the individual hire prices of signs, cake carts, table settings, toilets, log slices, lights, games and everything else, it’s not only a tonne of work but a huge additional cost. A cost to your health (through overwhelm and stress) and a cost to your bank account.



Items you’ll find, free….

Arches (at least 3 different types)
Easels for table plans
In memory – ways to remember loved ones
Vintage clothes lines – great for displaying photos…
Wedding post box
Crates for innovative displays

Battery candles and centrepieces
Various faux flowers and greenery for décor
Cake stands and signage

Bunting and paper lanterns
Lanterns and lit trees
Décor for each season including Christmas
Various vessels of every shape and size for your flowers
Signs of every description
Ride on Llama to take a little one down the aisle
Even a baby cart for new-borns to go down the aisle too!

Your Wedding Feast

One of the most important questions when planning a wedding is “What am I going to feed my guests?”



Well, rest assured, that our offerings for wedding food is something we are very proud of – we buy the best quality ingredients (local wherever possible), cook it simply and serve it generously ‘feast style’ for both you and your guests to share and enjoy!

We are lucky enough to have our very own butchers’ shop Whiteheads which has been in the family for over 130 years and supplies all our meat for your wedding breakfast. We even grow our own edible flowers and herbs to add a touch of beauty and theatre to your feast!

We can provide you with delicious homemade canapés to keep your guests happy whilst mingling with our Llamas!

Our preference is to offer an informal, social and relaxed service with the focus being on the food. Guests help themselves from the platters which are placed in the centre of each table and the constant passing of dishes acts as an icebreaker and provides a constant talking point.

Our service and relaxed approach makes for a more sociable atmosphere and provides an experience your guests will be talking about for years to come.

Please refer to our separate food menu for further details. We can cater for all dietary requirements, tastes and allergies.

For all of our wedding feast packages. Children can choose to have half of the adult portions OR we provide one option from our specially designed little people’s menu.

All packages include complimentary tea and coffee served via our Lancashire Brew Station and complimentary bottles of filtered water.

Not satisfied with complimentary games, an on-site Prop Shed and bow tie-wearing Llamas. We have a variety of options to choose from that you can continue to WOW your guests as your celebration continues throughout the day and into the evening.

We try and be as eco-friendly as possible and we see our role in the community is to support the local economy and see this as our duty towards corporate social responsibility. It may seem at first that we’re in the middle of nowhere with no places to stay for miles around, but in fact that couldn’t be further from the truth!

We’re in fact surrounded by places to stay, many of which are local farms that have converted into B+Bs!

In fact,
Within a 5-mile radius there are 126 rooms (with approximately over 200 beds)!
