The team at Colshaw Hall have made the most of recent lockdowns, when they'd usually be hosting weddings, and have created The Den, a new dedicated pre-ceremony space for grooms and their groomsmen. Designed to steady any last minute nerves before the “I dos,” the spaced is located next to The Ceremony Room and is super-stylishly decorated in a Cheshire-countryman theme. There are comfy sofas, Harris tweed furnishings and leather-look walls in cool grey tones, offering a fab backdrop for wedding-prep photography.

Hang up your jacket and choose whether to play table tennis, table football or chill in front of the widescreen TV. There's plenty of space to get ready too. The bar area will be finished soon too and will include a fridge of drinks on the house.

The Den is available from 11am on the day of the wedding. Check out www.colshawhall.com
