Is there any north west brides out there in the world of hitched! just curious really, and thought it might be helpful when deciding on suppliers etc, as always feel its best to go off recommendations! i live in wigan at the moment, am originally from manchester but getting married in altrincham!!...

    Hi All,

    I am another NW Bride, live in North Manchester but yet to find a venue!!

    Went to see West Tower today it was lovely, going to see Tithe Barn at Meols Hall next Sat and will hopefully be able to make a decision after that! Also been to see The Lowry Theatre, Manchester Town Hall, Thornton Manor (my absolute fave but can't justify the price), Capesthorne Hall and Arley Hall. This wedding has taken over my life, spend my life on the internet scouring for venues?

    Nice to see there are quite a few NW brides out there! XXX

    Statham Lodge is a wonderful venue, Kelly who runs the weddings is great.

    We've shot there a couple of times this year Smiley smile

    All the best with the rest of your planning.

    I'm a NW bride, getting married in Hale, right next to Altrincham, so know it very well.

    I live in Norfolk now, but grew up in Altrincham/Hale. Getting married at St Peter's church in Hale then heading to Cheadle House for the reception, thought it was great and got full exclusivity of the hotel which means all the family and friends can stay the night, so no poor person has to stick on lemonade.x

    Yes, Libby is still the vicar.

    Its a lovely church and I have grown up in it really. Bowdon is a lovely place, one of my grandparents lives in Bowdon so know it very well.

    Hiya, I'm a wedding stationery designer/supplier based in Southport & Liverpool. I also work with Fantasy Weddings in Southport who do chair covers, venue dressing and flowers so if any of you are looking at the nearby hotels like West Tower, Formby Hall, Meols, Scarisbrick, Hurlston etc we're not far from them. I've done many table plans for the West Tower, its probably my favourite nearby venue. x

    Hello! So nice to see so many North West brides.

    Not a bride myself, but a HIB based in Sale, South Manchester, so if I can be of any help with wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses etc I'd be happy to help.

    Good luck everyone with the wedding planning!
