It will be completely yours, exclusively for the day.
Together with an exquisite menu, designed especially for you, a Samlesbury Hall wedding fulfils every dream. Their award winning chefs source only the finest local produce to ensure your first meal as a married couple will never be forgotten.
With everything under one roof, and historic rooms licensed for ceremonies, holding your wedding ceremony at Samlesbury Hall means there is no need for any travel for you and your guests.
Your perfect day will end by dancing the night away on the wooden floors of the Great Hall until the early hours, complemented by your choice of evening food and entertainment.

For the married couple, with its oak slipper bed and roll top bath, double shower and complimentary fizz & sweeties, the Gatehouse is pure romance to finish the most fantastic day.

- EEmma & Ian23/03/2019Beautiful venue, shocking wedding management Beautiful venue, shocking wedding managementMy anxiety was first raised when Samlesbury hall changed wedding planners. The new wedding planner is unorganised and couldn’t care less. The first part of my wedding was perfect, but went downhill fast after the wedding management went home after the speeches, leaving me to manage the rest of the evening.... the room turnaround, cutting the cake, the DJ and it left me running around like a headless chicken. I didn’t enjoy the evening one bit, and I was looking for the wedding planner, oblivious to the fact she had gone home without leaving someone in charge in her place. Even her staff didn’t know she had left as they too were looking for her. I opted to address it privately via email after the wedding before leaving a negative review, however when I said that she disabled the FB review feature on the Samlesbury Hall page... I’m presuming because my review wouldn’t be the only negative one.. another negative review was posted a few weeks before my wedding. The email response I got was unprofessional and rude. I did not pay a lot of money for a venue and a fixed package which included “extensive and dedicated evening management” for the wedding manager to go home 3 hours into the day.

The weddings we host are vital in keeping our historic Hall open, but there's nothing we love more!
