Stockton House

Stockton house’s idea of your day, your way is genuine truth. Amy, Ellie, Tom and the whole team go above and beyond to provide an experience like no other. Where, by the end, you are friends and not just customers. Not only in every sense of a wedding day, but far beyond that. We were incredibly worried about our reactive dog. The team went out their way over months to gain his trust and become his friend as well - meaning we were able to have him be a true part of our day, like we had dreamed. The answer was never no, there was always a solution, they all worked tirelessly around the clock to give us the best treatment and exactly what we wanted for our day. They treat their suppliers, and customers, with the upmost dignity and respect, so many suppliers told us how wonderful it is to work at Stockton. It is a magical venue and an amazing family to become part of - you would not regret your decision with this venue and these fantastic people.

Stunning property, gorgeous views, beautiful bedrooms and general accommodation, incredibly nice, sweet, polite and helpful staff. Made the entire process of wedding planning and execution seamless! Amy & Ellie were amazing and incredibly helpful through each step of making our dream celebrations come to life! Could not have picked a better venue and could not have asked for a better team! Loved every minute of it! Amy even helped me by putting the laces on my trainers when my feet in heels started to kill me. To say the service was above and beyond is an understatement!

We could not have asked for more from our wedding venue and choosing Stockton House for our wedding was the best decision ever. We took a risk and booked Stockton in 2022 when renovations had barely started and never looked back. Stockton House is absolutely beautiful and it was amazing to see all of the vision boards and ideas come to life; we will never forget the feelings of excitement when we visited for the first time. The whole planning process was smooth and Amy, Ellie and Tom supported us along the way. We felt so welcome each time we visited Stockton and we were both so comfortable there. Nothing was too much trouble; from helping and encouraging Ilya when he felt nervous about his speech and sitting with him as he ran through it the day before, to Amy crawling around on the bridal suite floor with me when I lost the back of my earring (not once but twice) just as I needed to get into my dress! We could not have been more supported by the fantastic team at Stockton. The food was amazing from our menu tasting, to the meal the evening before the wedding, on the day, and not forgetting breakfast! Tom is an incredible chef and we are so grateful that he was able to make our favourite Russian dessert; he put so much time and effort into this and it was amazing. All of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed the food! Our wedding day was truly the best day of our lives and Stockton House was the perfect venue for us. We only wish we could do it all over again. Stockton now feels like a second home and the team have become friends and we can’t wait to visit again in the future. I cannot recommend this amazing venue enough! Thank you SO much for making our wedding dreams come true.

It’s hard to put into words how magical this venue is. From the minute we stepped foot into Stockton House, we knew this was our perfect wedding venue - from the church on-site, fabulous chef, stunning decor and the incredible team, it stood out to us from the get-go. Amy, Ellie, Tom, M&S and the entire Stockton House team were fantastic from the first tour to the day itself. They took the time to find out about us as a couple, our friends and family and never forgot those tiny details that made our day one we will never forget. Even the breakfast on the terrace the morning after was a dream - we felt truly spoilt! If our day is anything to go by, if you decide to step through the doors of Stockton House for a tour, you won’t be disappointed!

We find ourselves at a loss for adequate enough adjectives to describe just how extraordinary this wedding venue is. Nothing about it is average and unless you've had the privilege of getting married there, it would be hard to fully appreciate the magic that Stockton House holds. Our journey with Stockton House began in 2021 when the building was undergoing renovation. Despite the hard hats and high-visibility jackets, we were captivated. It possessed a unique personal feeling we hadn't encountered in the 12+ venues we had visited. As the months passed, the building's transformation unfolded, surpassing our wildest dreams. The team kept us engaged with development photos and frequent invitations to witness it’s progress. Early on, Amy and Ellie became integral to our wedding experience. They provided unwavering support through texts, emails, and valuable ideas, even influencing our choice of napkins and tablecloths, all whilst giving us constant words of encouragement. Stockton House understands that a wedding revolves around your loved ones. They encourage you to involve them in the planning process. Our menu tasting wasn't just for us, but four additional guests too. It quickly became evident that no detail was too small for the Stockton team, who were dedicated to perfection. Head chef Tom joined us between courses to discuss dishes and ingredient sourcing. The exceptional options made our choices challenging, but Stockton was accommodating when we requested changes, such as a crouton changing to a sourdough crisp or the malbec swapping to a specific Primitivo. When the big weekend arrived, Amy and Ellie were there to guide us through setup and ensure everything ran smoothly. Tom outdid himself with every single food element. From a Thai extravaganza on Friday to venison perfection for 80 guests, and the world's best dessert, Stockton House set a new standard for wedding cuisine. Their take on KFC for evening food and a remarkable 80 person BBQ to continue celebrations the following day, earned high praise. Our foodie hearts swelled with pride as guests and suppliers alike declared it the best wedding food they'd ever tasted. M&S maintained impeccable cleanliness and hospitality, even repurposing some of our décor for a delightful breakfast surprise the following day. We also later found out that Amy briefed the team about us as a couple which added a personalised touch. Our wedding day at Stockton House was flawless, with not a single disappointment -except for the fact that it had to end. However, Stockton won't be rid of us easily; we plan to return whenever possible. We've already stopped by for a catch-up and were welcomed with open arms, a testament to the incredible team. Choosing Stockton House as our wedding venue was the second-best decision we ever made, with the first being our decision to get married in the first place. We can't imagine our day without this extraordinary venue and the exceptional team behind it. Words alone cannot express our gratitude, but we want to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Amy and her team were amazing - always helpful, enthusiastic and well organized. As best man I saw 1st hand how much planning they took off the bride and groom's shoulders and the great lengths they went to ensure that it was a magical day for all concerned. Would 100% recommend to anyone searching for a wedding venue in Shropshire - you need look no further!
