Description

Follow in the footsteps of generations of newlyweds with a wedding celebration at the Mansion House in Calderstones Park. Adorned simply with twinkling fairy lights and fitted with a sprung floor to dance the night away, the historic Theatre Room, lovingly restored in 2019, is a blank canvas with character for you to create the wedding of your dreams.

A Room With A View

Perfect for both ceremonies and receptions, the Theatre Room comfortably holds up to 100 ceremony and wedding breakfast guests and offers additional capacity for evening receptions. In a nod to its past life as an open air theatre, a design feature of the Theatre Room is the line of bi-folding doors that offer uninterrupted views out to the secret garden and private terrace at the rear of the House.

Bringing the Outside In

For larger parties in need of additional space, slide back the bi-folding doors of the Theatre Room and take the sweeping staircase out into the Mansion House’s magical secret garden. There’s also plenty of room for a marquee if you’re looking for that extra wow factor.

Food and Drink

Everything on our menu is fresh and locally sourced. From delicious canapés and traditional three-course menu, to BBQ’s, bowl food, buffets and even a Cheshire Farm ice cream cart - our team will work to design a menu with you and your guests in mind. Our bar is fully stocked with draught beers, wines and a selection of spirits, as well as plenty of non-alcoholic options and soft drinks. We’re happy to create a special cocktail for your celebrations. Talk to us about drinks packages, available to suit all budgets.

Weddings with a difference

As a charity, The Reader puts people first, and you can be sure that your guests will enjoy the warmest of Reader welcomes. Our friendly and experienced team will be on hand to advise and guide you through your celebration – from your very first viewing, to the departure of your last guest, we will attend to every detail with care. And, by choosing to celebrate with us, you’re making a difference to people and communities across the UK.

Our guests were bowled over by the venue

We knew from our first visit to The Reader that we wanted to celebrate our big day here. The whole experience exceeded our expectations and our guests were bowled over by the beauty of the venue. If we could do it all over again, we most definitely would!
