- ZZahra & Chris21/09/2023For that wow factorFor that wow factorI first heard of Dalton old Pump House via Bridebook, it was a new wedding venue still under renovation when we went to visit (hard hats and a building site!). We both immediately fell in love with the building, the history and the loving restoration that Vicky and Ian were in the midst of. The finished venue was everything we’d hoped of and more. We had so many compliments on the venue and how it was the best wedding many of our guests had ever attended. The outdoor areas, the ceremony space, the boiler room, every area has a wow factor that you and your guests will never forget. Thank you to Vicky, Ian and the team for our dream wedding.I first heard of Dalton old Pump House via Bridebook, it was a new wedding venue still under renovation when we went to visit (hard hats and a building site!).

I searched the entire country for a unique, rustic, glam venue and this was the only one that did it for me.

There are so many conveyor belt wedding venues out there and this is NOT one. The venue is STUNNING it takes your breath away...If you are thinking about having your wedding here look no further.
