Gift Registry

Because at first we lived in sin
We've got the sheets and rubbish bin
But if a gift you would like to bring
A few pennies would be the perfect thing
We would like a honeymoon far away
And your gift could help us on our way
We hope that this won’t cause offence
But in our case it makes more sense
But it’s your company we would most appreciate
On this our very special date.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we check-in before the wedding?

Guests of Peckforton Castle are advised that check-in is only available after 3pm. If you are arriving on the day, it is unlikely you will be able to check into your room before this time, so we advise that all guests arrive dressed for the wedding.

Can I bring a guest or a plus 1?

Although we’d love to be able to share our big day with all your loved ones as well as ours, we regret that we can only accommodate guests named specifically on your invitations. We do however, welcome guests to bring a +1 to the adults only evening reception (7pm onwards).

Are children invited?

To allow all wedding guests, including parents, a night of uninhibited revelry, we have chosen for our wedding to be an adult-only occaision. We hope this advance notice means you are still able to share our big day and that you will enjoy the evening off. So book a sitter and dust off your dancing shoes!

Is there a preferential room rate at the venue?

Yes! We've arranged for a number of rooms to be made available at Peckforton Castle and a discount code that you may use to book your rooms. You'll need to phone reception to take advantage of the discount and quote "GA03187".
