About West Tower

West Tower is a country house wedding venue in Lancashire that offers exclusive use of its house and grounds for an entire celebration. The house was built in the 1800s and today brings together a mix of interior spaces organised around the flow of a wedding day: from a light-filled ballroom and the terrace to the private Cellar Bar and informal lounges. Couples and their guests can move from a civil ceremony through to drinks, wedding breakfast and evening party without leaving the estate.

Ceremonies can welcome up to 145 day guests, and the space for evening celebrations is set up for more than 200 people. A range of rooms and outdoor areas is available to support different parts of the day, including gardens and terrace for receptions and photographs.

Accommodation is part of the offering. There are 27 bedrooms across the estate that together sleep up to 70 guests, with the Cristal Suite available for wedding-day preparations and the surrounding cottages and private rooms nearby.

Food and drink are prepared on site, with bespoke menus and seasonal produce served during the wedding breakfast and later in the day. Open events and showrounds are offered for couples considering the venue, and the venue regularly outlines its wedding packages and extras to support planning and logistics.
