Congratulations on your engagement, and welcome to The Lion & Swan – where timeless elegance meets unforgettable celebrations, and your wedding dreams become reality.

Nestled in the heart of Congleton, our beautifully restored 16th-century coaching inn is so much more than a wedding venue. It’s a place to bring your favourite people together, create memories that last a lifetime and celebrate your love story in a setting that’s every bit as special as the occasion itself.

And the best part? We’ve thought of so much already, so you can spend less time worrying about the details and more time looking forward to your day.

From the moment your guests arrive to the last song of the evening, we’re here to make every part of your celebration feel extraordinary. Picture a beautiful ceremony, a delicious wedding breakfast with exceptional food from our AA Rosette-awarded Pecks restaurant, canapés, champagne toasts, beautiful floral touches and those all-important finishing details that bring everything together.

As the celebrations continue, transform your evening into a party to remember in Radley & Co, our unique, nightclub-style underground bar. With DJs, a lively atmosphere, light-up letters and plenty of room to dance the night away, your wedding reception can be every bit as spectacular as you’ve imagined.

When the celebrations finally come to an end, there’s no need for everyone to rush home. With 10 complimentary bedrooms included for the night of your wedding, you and your closest guests can relax, celebrate and make even more memories together, before waking up and enjoying the morning after.

From the big moments to the smallest details, we bring so much more to the table than just a venue. Our wedding packages are thoughtfully designed to offer an exceptional experience, with so many special touches already included – alongside the flexibility to make your day truly your own.

Whether you’re dreaming of timeless romance, modern glamour or a party that nobody wants to leave, our collection of distinctive spaces, dedicated wedding team and passion for creating unforgettable experiences mean you’re in the right place.

One venue. Three experiences. A whole lot of reasons to fall in love.
