  Amazing venue with a great team!

  We had our wedding at The Pumping House last weekend, and it was everything we could have asked for. From the first moment we saw the venue, we knew it was the right place for us to get married.
  
  The venue has so many different quirks, which really get your guests interested and talking, and gives you every opportunity to put your own stamp on things. It's not all DIY though, and the service laid on by the team is fantastic. The building itself is also full of character, and would look incredible even without adding extra decoration. We lost count of the number of times our guests commented on how much they loved the venue.
  
  As a couple of foodies, we were most interested in the options for food on the day, which is plentiful and varied by the in-house catering team. The pricing of the food is reasonable also. We went for the tapas menu option, and would highly recommend this to anyone looking for something slightly different from the norm. The sharing plates are a really sociable way to enjoy a meal and got everybody talking. The quality of the food was excellent, and the quantity was plentiful also. We just wish we could have eaten more!
  
  One real plus for us with an October date was that everything can be done quite easily indoors. We had some rain on the day, but it didn't detract from the occasion at all. There is a very nice outdoor area which can be used for photos, evening food, reception drinks, etc, but this area is definitely a bonus rather than something that's really necessary.
  
  Finally, a big shout-out to Lian and the whole team, who were very helpful both in the lead-up to the day, and on the day itself, to help make it a day we won't forget! We can't thank them enough

  A venue fit for the very best celebration

  The Pumping House at Boughton was the
  choice our daughter and her fiancé made when they were married on 25/2/22. They had visited a number of venues around Nottinghamshire. We are so pleased that they chose where they did. It’s in a lovely setting, warm and comfortable with plenty of space. Great for photo memories outside and inside. Having drinks and canapés on arrival on the 1st floor was perfect and then the wedding breakfast and later dance on the ground floor simply amazing. A nicely kitted out area for the little ones to enjoy themselves in their own environment was fantastic. The furniture and set up for the reception meal was magical. What amazing food and service we had. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff were magnificent. What a superb day we had, one that will stay in our memories with us forever. The disco was brilliant. Needless to say we highly recommend Boughton Pumping Station as a venue! Than you so much. Mr and Mrs B.

  We had the best day

  We just wanted to say the biggest thankyou for making Friday so amazing. We had the best day and can't thank you and your team enough for making our day truly unforgettable. Everyone has said how amazing the venue, food and staff were. We all had the best day.

  The Pumping House is the most magical of venues

  The Pumping House is the most magical of venues - words cannot express how grateful I am that we were able to spend our wedding here. We were looking for somewhere Edwardian architecturally, with a quirky interior for our indie / vintage inspired wedding, and wow did we strike gold! What I love most about the building is the little breakout rooms with their curious objects and antiques - full of character. It's like Alice in Wonderland! We adored the tiles and decor - the team have styled it superbly. Also it was so useful having Save the Date Event Stylists downstairs to help us make the place look extra special! Our guests were really blown away - so many of them saying it was the best venue they'd ever been to.
  It's worth saying too that Ellie and Jo were the most INCREDIBLE, attentive hosts and made me and my husband-to-be feel instantly at home. They made every step of the process a piece of cake - so much so that I had to make sure to get a selfie with Ellie on the big day! I was super anxious in the days before the wedding, and she was an invaluable help in making sure the day ran smoothly. She even let us bring our own street food caterers and turn the Engine Room into a street food market! It was incredible! All in all, I can't recommend The Pumping House highly enough. The only thing is - I want to keep it as my own little secret!! But if you love all things alternative, you will fall in love with this place just like we did. This place is a hidden gem and worth every single penny, and every accolade it gets.

  The venue is beautiful, food was brilliant!

  Thankyou so much to Ellie and all the team at The Pumping House for making our wedding run so smoothly and making the organisation so easy when we were planning a wedding from afar.
  The venue is beautiful, food was brilliant, and staff couldn't have been more helpful!

  Best day ever!

  The Pumping House is such an amazing venue and was perfect for our wedding in January. We fell in love with the place as soon as we saw it and right from the beginning Lian and the staff were amazing!! They helped us plan and prepare the day and picked up on lots of little details that we may not have thought about. The character of the building is amazing and the internal decoration is stunning, especially the quirky themed rooms that are on the upper floor which give plenty of room for creative fun. All our guests commented on how beautiful, yet different the venue was, and how well thought out the day was....a lot of which we owe big thanks to Lian and the staff for!
  The planning of the day was made stress-free, and the attentiveness on the day was great, it really helped settle both our nerves and allow us to enjoy the day. We couldn't recommend the Pumping House enough and would like to say a huge thankyou for making our day so perfect! BEST....DAY....EVER!!

  They went the extra mile!

  Hugo and I could not be more grateful for everything that Lian and the team did for us for our wedding day. We received expert advice and service from the moment I enquired to see the venue. The whole planning process was supported, helping us to make decisions when I just had not clue. Then on the day we wanted for nothing and in addition to the big important things (making sure everything went smoothly and happened on time, which it did!), they went the extra mile... such as finding us a few extra sparklers so we could get some extra photos in (we ran out), to safety pinning my dress, getting a few extra chips made for one of our guests, to making sure there was always a bottle of Prosecco behind the bar for me. You all worked so hard and we received so many compliments about how amazing you were. We're so thankful!

  I am so happy that we found The Pumping House

  Lian, thank you so much for all of your help throughout planning this wedding. The day could not have been this perfect if it wasn't for your help along the way. I am so happy that we found The Pumping House and as a result of that we found you. You made this whole thing so easy for us and we could not have found a better venue or team to host our day. You guys were everything Matt and I could have hoped for and more for our wedding. .
