The most magical day 💕
Where to begin… our wedding at Slaley Hall in a word magical! From we arrived on the Friday lunch time all the staff were second to none all weekend! Nothing was a problem for them, anything we asked for, any changes we needed made at short notice (I’d forgot about 2 guests attending) they made no fuss, professionalism 5*, food was incredible! Hats off to the chef! Bar staff kept drinks flowing all day/night into the early hours of the morning! A special shoutout to the lovely Sam! Providing toilet directions all night! Bethan our coordinator on the day.. excellent! Highly proficient and executed the day exceptionally! Chris a member of management team exceptional, very professional and overall lovely guy! Our wedding event coordinator over the 2 years of planning Kate was fabulous, very responsive to emails and phone calls any queries questions answered within the hour in most cases! If Kate was on her day off another member of her team replied in her place. Overall we couldn’t fault a thing, from start of booking to the actual wedding day. A special mention to Neville, who alongside his wife provided awesome stationary items bringing them to work for us so we didn’t have to think about a journey from Cumbria to the North East numerous times throughout the year! We cannot wait to return to Slaley year after year! If you’re thinking of Slaley Hall for your wedding venue, you won’t be disappointed!Slaley Hall's reply:

Mohamed I. Sent on 04/11/2024An incredible wedding venue
What a sensational venue. We spent many hours researching venues and booked multiple viewings, however from the moment we walked into Slaley, we knew this was the venue. The hall is spectacular and catered for our large wedding, but they also had additional rooms that we were able to use for other aspects of the wedding and pre-wedding. The outdoor space is unmatched, with huge patio and gardens for guests to venture out to and a hidden garden that guests loved exploring. The venue itself pictures very well and we were able to get many great drone shots too. Slaley Hall also has a golf course and spa that the wedding guests were able to use around the wedding and they all loved.
But Slaley Hall wouldn’t be Slaley Hall without their incredible wedding coordinating team. They were very attentive, professional, supportive and helped make our wedding incredible. They were very accommodating to have meetings around our busy shift work and their expertise shone through as they guided us through all the intricacies of wedding planning and organising. On the day, they made the day run so smoothly and were very active, allowing us to enjoy our wedding. A special mention to Becky and Kate who were sensational and we feel without them the wedding wouldn’t have been so smoothly run. Thank you to the whole team. Mohamed and Nasreen -

Robert H. Sent on 06/10/2024Amazing Wedding Venue!
We had our wedding at Slaley Hall and had a fantastic experience. From the first meeting, they talked us through what would happen at each point of the day, giving us the options available to us, and making the pricing clear and understandable.
In the build up to our wedding, they were always prompt at replying to emails with all our questions, no matter how silly. We appreciated the organised and structured approach to our 6 month- and 1 month- meetings. We discussed each part of the day and the options available, which put our minds at ease that every detail had been considered and there would be no surprises on the day.
The wedding day itself was magical. The venue is truly special - it looks like a castle on the outside, and has a hidden Japanese garden for photographs. The day ran exactly to schedule. Our food was delicious as well, and received compliments from the guests.
We'd like to give a big thank you to Kate and Becky for making our day perfect. We'd thoroughly recommend Slaley Hall!Slaley Hall's reply:

23/5/2024 The Martin Wedding
Honestly the best day of our lives! We had our wedding at Slaley Hall, booked in feb 2022 for 23rd May 2024 and from the get go was hoping for our wedding to be outside under pagoda. Had heart set on this but due to weather week leading up was clear this wasn’t going ahead as rain wasn’t the best, the team as Slaley had a back up in drawing room in this case and it couldn’t have been more perfect, I ended up preferring it!! Such a beautiful room for our wedding, infact all the rooms including one prior for wedding party was huge and spacious for myself and my 6 bridesmaids to get ready in! Every staff member we encountered could not have done more for us, all extremely friendly and helpful, made us feel so at home!
All in all our whole wedding was a complete dream of what we wanted, infact more!! It was the best day of our lives and we can’t thank Slaley Hall enough for all their help and support throughout!!Slaley Hall's reply:

Anna R. Sent on 18/04/2022The perfect day at the perfect venue
We are so happy we booked Slaley Hall for our wedding venue; the venue is beautiful and the staff were perfectly attentitive to our needs. Our guests remarked throghout the weekend how beautiful the location was and how professional the staff were.
Laura, our coordinator went above and beyond to make sure everything was ready for us. On the day, Sarah made sure everything ran like clockwork. There was one hitch with our canapés that we passed on to Laura the day after the wedding (we had ordered 4 different types but only 3 were served on the day, one of which was different to what we had ordered|) but this did not detract from what was the perfect day at the perfect venue.
We would highly recommend to anyone considering Slaley for their wedding venue. -

Lesleyann I. Sent on 19/01/2022A most perfect day
We had the most perfect day from start to finish. Our wedding coordinator Laura was fantastic especially contacting us and putting our minds at rest regarding the covid pandemic they answered any questions we had and were very fast at replying to my emails. On the day we arrived much earlier than they anticipated us but it wasn't a problem we were shown to the bar and they promptly set everything up for the drinks reception. We chose the dukes suite for our sit down meal as the views across the golf course we're amazing and it offered a more intermit environment. Food was delicious and everyone loved our choice and they even selected a few special dishes for family with food allergies which they took very serious. Night time we moved onto the keilda suite which provided excellent space with its own bar for our night time party. The staff were amazing especially David who was on the day our go to person and also the concierge Nevil who was great and looked after our belongings and put them in our room ready for the night. I can't thank everyone enough for what they did for us.Slaley Hall's reply:
Hi Lesleyann
Thank you for your lovely feedback. It was a pleasure working with you and Chris to plan your special day.
Hopefully we will see you both again soon at Slaley Hall
Many thanks

Beautiful surroundings, brilliant team. Laura was the most amazing and helpful wedding planner ever! Communication was amazing (especially when you had to do it four times). Will made the day run so smoothly and the team on the day were amazing too. We only viewed the one venue because as soon as we seen Slaley, we knew it was for us. Highly recommend!Slaley Hall's reply:
Hi Kirsty and Tom
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. It was a pleasure planning your special day.
We look forward to welcoming you both back to Slaley in the near future.

I could not recommend Slaley Hall enough. We were unfortunate that we had booked our wedding in 2020 and therefore had to postpone our day. Our wedding planner Laura could not have been any more helpful. There was never a moment where we felt unsupported or stressed. I had read about other venues who had asked couples to change their price or to go ahead with the wedding with the limited numbers but Slaley never pressured us to do this. They were incredibly supportive throughout and as we got married at the end of November 2020, I had asked if any Christmas trees would be up in time for our day and Slaley went out of their way to make sure this happened. It looked stunning and made our day even more special.
The venue is absolutely stunning. We chose to be married in the drawing room and then have our meal and evening reception in the kielder suite. Both of which were perfect for 80 guests. The food was delicious! Throughout the day, all the staff went out of their way and the entertainment on the night time was fantastic. We booked a winter package with Slaley that included a DJ from Prime Entertainment. He was absolutely brilliant and the dance floor was full the whole night.
Most of our guests chose to stay and commented on how lovely their rooms were. I stayed in the Ladywell suite the night before the wedding (perfect for getting ready in on the morning with bridesmaids) and the Ministeracres on the night of the wedding. Both rooms were phenomenal!
We chose to have our photos taken outside and also made good use of the Japanese gardens. We managed to get some amazing photos courtesy of our amazing photographer (Stephen Beecroft).
I honestly could not recommend Slaley enough. They made our day absolutely perfect and we’re worth every penny!Slaley Hall's reply:
Hi Chloe,
