For that wow factor

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!). 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.

The perfect venue

My husband and I didn’t want the conventional hotel wedding venue. We found exactly what we were looking for with Dalton Pump House! The perfect venue. Character, history, fantastic staff who can’t do enough for you, incredible food. Planning was easy from start to finish with the help of the team, and they thought of really important little bits I hadn’t even thought of! Our day was perfect, and people have commented that it’s the best wedding they’ve ever been to. I cannot recommend enough

Our day was perfect, I couldn’t fault a thing!

Dalton pumphouse was the first and only wedding venue we viewed. Lewis and I were ‘wow-ed’ even upon seeing Lady Dalton from humble beginnings (building site) in the Winter when Vikki and Ian had just acquired it. We fell in love with their timeless/classic vision and sparkling energy (those chandeliers got me!) and knew instantly we’d only be disappointed going anywhere else!! The staff are simply AMAZING, the food is just out of this world!

This was the only one that did it for me

If you are thinking about having your wedding here look no further. I searched the entire country for a unique, rustic, glam venue and this was the only one that did it for me. From start to finish Ian and Vikki (owners) and Emma (wedding co-ordinator) had such a personal touch and were so passionate about what they do. Anything we needed, they were there. There are so many conveyor belt wedding venues out there and this is NOT one. The venue is STUNNING it takes your breath away...

We just want to thank you and the team again for the most amazing and magical day of our lives. From dropping our things off the day before with Nathan, the whole process has been easy and clear from start to finish and every single member of staff were helpful, friendly and just made our day even more special. 💜 We are still on cloud nine! The venue was outstanding, the food was utterly delicious…People are still speaking of the beef! The staff, amazing. We just want to do the whole day again!
