My husband and I booked Stanley House for our wedding reception some two and a half years before the day. I am extremely organised but after looking at many other venues, I felt Stanley House could not be beaten so was eager to book up. I am someone who has very high expectations, a perfectionist, and Stanley House and the team did not fail to impress.
Emma and Joy, event and wedding planners, were fantastic. Emma was our main contact and she did everything in her power to make sure our day was incredible, every wish was catered for.
David Jones, was our events manager who helped with the running of the day. He was brilliant. Professional, considerate and went beyound our expectations to ensure our day ran as smoothly as possible, Also not to forget to mention Louis, who was a delight.
The food and drink was amazing from the canapes and cocktails for the welcome, the wedding breakfast to the evening buffet. Our guests, like ourselves were very impressed.
The rooms were fantastic. Our families occupied most of the rooms and had a pleasant stay. Myself and my husband enjoyed the room so much we stayed an extra night. My only grip would be that breakfast time should be extended particularly at the weekends.
We would also like to mention the beautiful flowers arranged by Linda Hardman at the Flower shop in Clitheroe, a contact of Stanley House. Minerva ensamble played wonderful music for our welcolm and breakfast. Our band, Frisco and Broadband provided us and our guests with brilliant music for the evening reception, everyone commented how fantastic they were. I enjoyed the night dancing on the fabulous starlit floor we hired via Janet at Starlit flooring.
Our day was perfect, our dreams came true and we could not have wished for a better venue

Hi Emma,
Cara and I would just like to express our sincere thanks for everything that you and all the Staff at Stanley House did before and during our wedding to make it the best day of our lives.
Absolutely everyone who came said it was the best wedding they had been to and had an amazing time thanks in no small part to the hard work done by you and your colleagues. The venue couldn’t have worked better and was thoroughly enjoyed by all, the food was great, the accommodation was great and even the weather was on our side, not sure how you arranged for those few hours of sun but thanks!!
I have to point out how wonderful it was dealing with you throughout the planning stages and right to the big day, it was invaluable to have such a great contact to be able to answer all our silly questions as soon as they popped into our heads.
Many Thanks and hope to be back soon,
Jordan and Cara Graham

This is a thank you to all the staff at Stanley House, Mellor.
We have just celebrated our wedding 22nd July 2011 and just wish to put in writing how delighted we were with how the day and preparations leading up to the big event were conducted.
We had a dedicated person, Joy who was our main point of contact, however, if she was ever unavailable there was always Emma or other staff who knew who we were and could look at every detail on file.
The day before our wedding we were introduced to David Jones who then went through in great detail all the specific requirements and timetable of the day and who would be doing what in what order and answering all our many questions.
Notes were taken and we left having every confidence that the day would run smoothly.
We were not disappointed! We can honestly say we had a fabulous day, everything went to plan and we have received nothing but compliments on the venue, staff and above all, the food. We had fillet steak which was divine. The children were also very happy with their menu choices.
Our room was beautiful and breakfast delicious.
We even added a live band at last minute and again everything was taken care of with minimum input from ourselves.
Every detail was 100%
A great decision to choose Stanley House as our wedding venue.

Dear Philip,
We just wanted to say thank you very much to you, Emma and the rest of the team for a fantastic wedding day! Everything was amazing, from the fairy lights above the red carpet at reception to the fabulously decorated room where we had the wedding breakfast. the food was superb. Thank you for agreeing to do the fish and chips, which were stunningly good – but so was the soup and the sticky toffee pudding! Without exception, everybody who was there was full of compliments from start to finish. your team did a great job and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anybody. My daughter and her new husband had the best day of their lives. Thank you! With kind regards, yours sincerely, Paul Latham.

Just wanted to take a moment to say a huge thank you to everyone that helped to make our wedding and reception so special.
It was a pleasure to deal with such friendly, helpful and professional people from start to finish we were made to feel like stars! So many of our guests had not visited Stanley House before and made a point of commenting extremely positively on everything from the food & service to decor. Could you please extend our thanks to all involved.

We wanted to send a little card to thank you all so much for an amazing wedding day on Saturday 12th December 2009.
From the minute we viewed Stanley House we knew it was the perfect location for our special day and we weren’t disappointed. We want to say a special thank you to Emma who acted as our Wedding Coordinator, you were so friendly and professional, nothing was too much trouble and you ensured we had exactly what we wanted. Everything was excellent – even down to the smallest detail, the day passed without a hitch. Our guests had so many positive coments about all the staff.

We had our wedding ceremony and reception at Stanley House on Friday 4th December 2009, and we wanted to write to you to let you know what a fantastic day we had.
All our guests thoroughly enjoyed the day and absolutely loved Stanley House. The day went perfectly and we believe this is mainly due to the staff, they were all so helpful, friendly and professional, we didn’t need to worry about anything.
A few names we would like to highlight are Emma and Joy for the organizing up to the day, and Luis for managing the operations on the day.
We feel so lucky to have such lovely memories of our wedding day that we will treasure forever. We definitely hope to return to Stanley House in the near future.

Thank you to Emma for all your help and communication on the preparation of the wedding, nothing was too much trouble and you were so reassuring yet professional throughout, we never saw you without a smile on your face, you were the perfect wedding coordinator, Stanley House should be proud to have you on their team.
As for Louis, you were outstanding on the day, the room looked stunning, you had dressed it just as we wanted, it looked magical! Your timings with the meal were so precise, the whole breakfast was flawless. You are certainly a credit to Stanley House.
The venue, the food, attention to detail but most of all the team are what made our special day so perfect, no bride and groom could have asked for anything more.

Emma,
Finally we have managed to get back to normal life following our wedding on the 14th September this year. Michelle and I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you and all the staff for your help in making our wedding day so special.
The food, the service and the treatment from the moment we arrived to when we departed was first class and Mr Louis Garcia was fundamental in ensuring the wedding breakfast ran like clockwork and was in control of the situation throughout, without being pushy or aggressive.
Since our wedding I have already recommended Stanley House to two people who are getting married, and I believe one of them have now actually booked, so they may benefit from the same great experience that we did.
Once again, thank you to you all for your help on the day, the memories will last our lifetime.
Tom & Mandy Lord
The best day of our lives! Stanley House… you helped make our dream wedding a reality!
Jonny & Heidi Williams
Flawless day in every way!
Nova & Duncan Weaver
People still compliment the venue and service 2 years later!
Monks & Conlan
Just a note to say… thank you
Thanks for everything you did to help make our wedding day so special. Everything about Stanley House was absolutely fantastic, all the staff were brilliant – from when we arrived – a little nervous – to the following day when we left. The food was delicious, the rooms for the ceremony and reception were set out beautifully and the gardens were lovely.
Everything went very smoothly and you helped us relax and enjoy the day – it went so fat!
We had a great wedding day, it will be a day that we never forget. Many, many thanks to everyone who was a part of our big day.
Andi & Jodi Tobias
A perfect venue for our fabulous day. We loved every minute of it!!
