Wedding experts believe there is no better way to fall in love with a wedding venue than to visit first hand, that's why Chester's Craxton Wood Hotel & Spa is inviting newly engaged couples to experience the magic for themselves at its wedding showcase. Taking place at 3pm on the 26th March, couples can tour the wedding venue, view multiple room setups and meet with the venue's expert wedding team to discuss possibilities for their big day. Selected open days also include local recommended suppliers to spark inspiration as wedding planning begins, from florists and wedding cake makers to entertainment providers and more.

Nestled within 27 acres of beautiful Cheshire woodland, Craxton Wood Hotel & Spa is a secluded location, featuring a range of function suites and manicured gardens which provide the perfect setting for a dream wedding.

The Craxton suite hosts up to 250 guests and features full length windows, as well as doors opening on to the gardens, while the hotel’s chefs create sumptuous dishes using the freshest seasonal ingredients. The picturesque gardens also provide the perfect location for outdoor ceremonies and marquee weddings and offer a beautiful backdrop for photographs.

Emma Benson, Weddings Marketing Manager for Macdonald Hotels & Resorts, said: “Our specialist wedding coordinators can support couples on every step of their wedding journey from venue hire, catering and entertainment to personal touches. With years of experience, they have delivered on many traditional or more unique requests for couples, but it all begins with finding the venue to tie the knot.

“Our open days are the ideal opportunity to ask those burning questions to the experts and truly visualise the set-up from day to night as the perfect backdrop of your wedding.”

Advance booking is recommended for the open days.

The specialist wedding team from Craxton Wood Hotel & Spa will also be attending Red Events Wedding Fair on the 12th February from 12-3pm and County Brides Wedding Fayre on the 2nd April from 12-3pm.

House of Janneke, a new lifestyle brand, launches Book of Special Days

The Book of Special Days is a keepsake journal that gives special moments a home. This isn't a diary. There are no rules, no schedules, no need to write in it every day.  There is a page for every day of the year, but no printed years. After a special day, you find the date, add the year and write down what made it worth remembering. Over time, this book will become something more: a living archive of your days, a weave of stories across the years, a place for little joys, victories big and small, laughter shared and milestones you cherish. It holds what you don't want to forget, a trove of the ordinary and the extraordinary, all treasured alike.
