Perfect! We decided we where going to get married 3 months before, Alcumlow where there every step of the way, with a short time frame and a relaxed couple they took so many of the details we didn’t think to bother with and just turned it around for us! Amazing communication from start to finish guiding us through everything! Nothing was to much, but no small details over looked! Chelsea, Carol and Amy were fantastic and made our day fantastic they become suc

Our wedding at Alcumlow Wedding Barn was spectacular. We had the most wonderful time all made possible by the team of people who work tirelessly to create your exact wedding to your exact brief. From my first viewing of the barn I just knew it was exactly right and it all flowed through to perfection. The pamper room is the perfect haven for the pre wedding preparation, the barn and grounds are the perfect backdrop to creating a unique day. The staff went above and beyond to make our day so special, we can’t thank them enough, but above all the comments from our guests say it all:- ‘Class from start to finish’ , ‘ I felt like I’d won the Golden ticket being included in this spec

This is the most amazing venue with the most fantastic members of staff. From our initial enquiry to our amazing special day, nothing was too much trouble for the team at Alcumlow and they always went above and beyond to make our day a special one. We first walked through the make believe Fairytale Gates and we were just wowed by the how absolutely beautiful this hidden gem of a venue really is and in the words of many of our guests, it’s a venue that just keeps on giving. Beverley and Charlie were always on hand, even through the height of the Covid to answer any questions and put us at ease. Even with the uncertainty of what the restrictions would be, the team were amazing, flexible, friendly and professional at all times. The day was just perfect, the team really captured everything that we were looking for, a unique set of decorations and a bespoke menu made just for us. Carol and the team dressed our venue beautifully with all our weird and wonderfully quirky pieces, we can’t thank you enough. Todd and Jake were fantastic at hosting all of our guests and coordinated our wedding in a professional and assertive manner, making you feel in safe hands all day. All of the team always addressed the members of the wedding party by name in all situations, which said to us that this is a venue that really cares about its clients, and this really showed from start to finish. Genuinely and honestly from the bottom of our hearts we can’t thank Alcumlow and the whole team fo

We had the most amazing day. Everyone at Alcumlow Wedding Barn were so professional and did everything in their power to make our wedding day feel like a fairy tale. Even though times are difficult at the moment and we could only invite 13 of our family members, they pulled out all the stops to make the day perfect. My husband and I would recommend Alcumlow Wedding Barn to anyone looking for the perfect venue. Not only are they va

I know it’s a cliche but we knew we wanted to get married at Alcumlow Wedding Barn as soon as we laid eyes on it! It’s a beautiful, unique and very special venue run by a fantastic team - we had an absolutely faultless experience with the venue right through from booking in 2016 to the big day itself in 2018. We really can’t say anything negative! So many of our guests commented on how beautiful the barn was, and also how good the food (by Ridgways) was. The event organisation through the team was also seamless, as they took care of everything from liaising with suppliers re DJ/photo booth setup and also setting the tables for us, always extremely patient, friendly and accommodating. It really ju

Whilst searching for our wedding venue, this was literally the first place I took more than a passing interest in. Having lived in the surrounding area for 25 years I was only aware of its existence in its former guise as the ‘Turkey farm’, was keen to see how things had moved on. Made an appointment with Charlie, who treated us like royalty from the very first meet, needless to say one look inside the barn and we were sold on the idea. The attention to detail that has been pored in to creating this stunning venue is amazing, our guests were literally gobsmacked, had never seen anything like it. The wedding day itself went fabulously, we had perfect weather to have the ceremony outd

The only venue we viewed! As soon as we walked through the gates we knew that this was the venue for us. After meeting Bev, Todd and Charlie we were guided and assisted with the whole process. There was no pressure as to what is best, but plenty of advice based upon their experience. We were bowled over by the care and attention given by all of the staff at Alcumlow on our wedding day. From arriving for the ceremony, right through the day there was always somebody there making sure that our special day ran smoothly. Planning your perfect wedding could be so stressful, this was taken away by the hardworking staff at Alcumlow. Such close attention to detail and security that your wishes are followed. Beautiful wedding barn, surroundings and we managed to get the weather too!! Everyone commented on what a lovely day it was, and how “they have never been to a w

This review of Alcumlow Wedding Barn cannot possibly contain enough words to completely express our appreciation. When it came time to selecting our venue we knew that we wanted a rustic feel and not the corporate hotel factor. We thank our lucky stars that we found you! Alcumlow is the perfect wedding venue and from the very first viewing, Todd, Bev, Charlie, Carol and everyone else in the team could not have done more to make sure we had the perfect day. The new addition of the Bridal Prep Room also added to the satisfaction of the day and was perfect for the ladies to get ready in beautiful spacious surroundings. Without their help our special day would not have been the picture-perfect event we always dreamed of. Your planning, preparation, and attention to detail was amazing - even down to the free transport at the end of the day. The venue is also a "dream" locatio

We had our wedding reception here on the 12th May and we can’t thank the team at Alcumlow enough. From all the initial first meetings, emails, the day before the wedding setting up and throughout the whole process they were all so professional, friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The day itself couldn’t have been more perfect or run any smoother. The barn looked amazing, we got so many comments about what a lovely venue it was and how people had never been to such a beautiful and different wedding venue. We can’t thank or recommend Alcumlow enough, friendly, professional, helpf

As soon as we walked in to this beautiful venue we knew it was where we wanted to get married. The fairy lights and rustic feel alongside the wonderful service provided by Beverly, Todd and Charlie made the whole package absolutely perfect. Holding umbrellas over us in the rain so we didn't get wet and ensuring our guests had transport to get home at the end of the night were just some of the many personal touches this amazing team provided to ensure our day was perfect. We truly could not have wished for a more perfect venue an

Myself and my fiancé viewed several venues for our upcoming wedding, the day we walked into Alcumlow Hall Farm we were greeted by Bev who very kindly gave her time and information....she then walked us around the the grounds which are amazing for the perfect photos , she then opened the barn doors ....this was the moment we both knew this was the perfect place , magical was the only word we could use as the whole place had taken our breath away , we decided there and then this was for us , not only do they have such a special place to celebrate the best day of your lives they actually enhance it with their fantastic team and Charlie the events manager was always quick to respond to any questions with nothing being to much trouble , they think of everything. then they do everything we certainly can’t thank them enough for making our special day the most perfect day of our lives . For the perfect day look no further than Alcumlow x
