Award-winning North West wedding venues



If you want to secure one of the best wedding venues the North West has offer for your big day, why not check out this list of some of Liverpool’s amazing, award-winning options? As an award-winner ourselves, we at Matthew Rycraft Photography love to create stunning images at some of the finest venues in the region.

Alma de Cuba


Combine the traditional and the contemporary at Liverpool’s Alma de Cuba. The 18th-Century, candlelit St Peter’s church provides a breath-taking backdrop, helping to unleash the creativity of your chosen Liverpool wedding photographer to dramatic effect. The award-winning restaurant and bar on Seel Street can be hired on an exclusive basis from Monday to Thursday, while the new Vestry, overlooking the whole venue, can be booked on any day of the week.


Knowsley Hall


The beautiful estate of Lord & Lady Derby, in Knowsley is one of the most picturesque and historic wedding venues in the North West.  2500 acres across a privatly stone walled estate makes this a location that will certainly make your guests jaws drop.  A long driveway leads to Knowsley Hall where you’ll be greeted by staff with a glass of prosecco ready for your group family photograph on the front steps.

The Palm House


The Palm House in Sefton Park lies to the south of the city, and has been chosen as the Best City Wedding Venue by Hitched. Sefton Park’s stunning and completely restored Palm House is filled with lush, tropical flowering plants and trees, providing a unique and exotic setting among the southern suburbs of Liverpool. This is a truly special setting for couples who love all things natural.



The Garden of Eden


For a truly special and romantic setting, check out the Garden of Eden at the award-winning Shankly Hotel. This luxurious venue offers panoramic views over the iconic Liverpool skyline, so your guests can gape in awe as they await the arrival of the happy couple. The venue is beautifully decorated, with twinkling fairy lights and twisted ivory trees complemented by intricate floral and botanical detailing.
