About The Fields

Set within the Cheshire countryside just four miles from the historic city of Chester, The Fields centres wedding celebrations around flexibility and personal choice. The venue is a converted barn and garden space designed to host weddings that range from relaxed outdoor gatherings to large-scale celebrations, with couples shaping the format of the day around their own plans rather than a fixed package structure.

Ceremonies can take place indoors or outside in the gardens, including outdoor ceremonies overlooking the Cheshire plains. The barn itself combines open party spaces with smaller corners suited to quieter moments throughout the day, allowing celebrations to move naturally from ceremony to dining and evening reception in one location.

Exclusive-use weddings give couples private access to the venue, creating a setting without shared events or interruptions. A civil ceremony licence allows legal ceremonies on site, while a dedicated wedding planner supports the planning process from early ideas through to the day itself.

Food and drink form a central part of the experience, with menus prepared by the in-house kitchen team. Options range from traditional wedding breakfasts to BBQs, grazing banquets, wood-fired pizzas and evening food, alongside tailored drinks menus and signature cocktail options. The Fields holds up to 250 guests and focuses on adaptable celebrations — from indoor barn receptions to garden-led events — allowing each wedding to be arranged around individual priorities, style and guest experience.

Special Guides for Brides Offers

Book a Winter Wedding (Nov-March) and get our Full Venue Décor Package included complimentary (usually £450)

Instructions

If you ask us, winter’s when the magic really happens. We’re thinking twinkly lights, flickering candles, mulled wine, hot chocolate, and that smug, cosy feeling you get when it’s chilly outside but you’re wrapped up warm with your favourite people. Off-peak means more sparkle for less spend. The same freedom, the same stunning views just with plenty of wiggle room in the budget for those 'why not?' extras. Book your wedding with us from November to March and enjoy a complimentary décor package including: Wisteria hung from the bar beams, staircases dressed with green foliage garlands, a wooden archway for your ceremony, rustic table décor with table runners, green foliage, wooden log slices, and floating candles, PLUS - Book in December and all our Christmas decorations are included: Festive Christmas garlands on both staircases and bar beams, a Christmas tree in the main barn.

Terms and conditions

New bookings only. Applies to any weddings that take place from 1st November - 31st March 25/26 & 26/27 Usual cost £450, Must quote offer from Guides For Brides
