Why Larkspur Lodge is One of Cheshire’s Most Magical Wedding Venues

Larkspur Lodge, Cheshire

Tucked away in the charming market town of Knutsford, in the heart of the Cheshire countryside, Larkspur Lodge offers a wedding experience that blends rustic charm, modern elegance, and heartfelt hospitality. This converted 18th-century shippon barn is rich in history, brimming with character, and designed to host unforgettable celebrations.

Whether you’re drawn to its unique ceremony space, beautifully landscaped gardens, or the warmth of its dedicated team, here’s why Larkspur Lodge is a dream wedding venue for so many couples.

A Unique & Atmospheric Ceremony Space

One of the most talked-about features at Larkspur Lodge is its amphitheatre-style Ceremony Room. With reclaimed retro theatre seating, monochrome tiled floors, exposed oak trusses, and romantic fairy lights overhead, it creates a truly intimate setting for up to 150 guests.

This layout means your loved ones aren’t just seated in rows—they’re gathered around you, sharing every glance, every smile, and every heartfelt word as you exchange vows. It’s a ceremony style that feels deeply personal and visually stunning for photographs.

Rustic Charm Meets Contemporary Comfort

The main Lodge Room provides a bright and spacious reception area for up to 150 seated guests (and 180 for evening celebrations). Its exposed red brick walls and natural timber beams are the perfect backdrop for any wedding style—whether you go for simple elegance or a more elaborate theme.

Adjoining the Lodge Room, the bar and lounge offer a welcoming space for guests to relax, mingle, and enjoy the day. The impressive 24-foot bar is stocked with premium wines, champagnes, beers, and spirits, all served by friendly, professional bartenders until midnight.

Beautiful Outdoor Spaces

The gardens at Larkspur Lodge are a reflection of its namesake flower—larkspur, a symbol of an open heart and love. The manicured lawns and seasonal blooms provide the perfect spot for canapés, summer drinks, and stunning outdoor photos.

In every season, the surrounding Cheshire fields create a picturesque backdrop—ideal for golden-hour portraits and romantic couple shots.
