1. Exclusive Use for Your Big Day
Styal Lodge is an exclusive-use venue, meaning you and your guests have complete privacy to enjoy the entire space. The warm, sustainable Finnish timber structure creates a cosy yet spacious feel, and the team ensures a seamless, personal experience from start to finish.
2. A Truly Flexible Space
The open-plan lodge is filled with natural light and can be styled to suit any wedding theme. One of its most unique features is the clever use of a curtain to divide the room between ceremony and reception, removing the need for a time-consuming room turnaround and maintaining a relaxed atmosphere.
3. A Breathtaking Outdoor Backdrop
Nestled within beautiful landscaped gardens, Styal Lodge also boasts its own private lake, providing a tranquil and picturesque backdrop for wedding photography. The private terrace and garden are ideal for summer drinks receptions and outdoor celebrations.
4. Incredible Food Options
Couples can choose from a wide range of catering styles, from elegant fine dining to informal feasts such as BBQs, sharing platters, and wood-fired pizzas – a favourite for evening receptions. The venue also accommodates vegan, halal, kosher, and Asian catering, making it versatile for all tastes and cultures.
5. Dedicated Wedding Team
The Styal Lodge team are known for going above and beyond to ensure every detail is perfect. From helping the bridal party prepare in the morning to managing music cues and even sewing a bride back into her dress (as one review recalls!), their experience and passion shine through every wedding.
