We both had the best day ever. We couldn’t have asked for a better setting. The weather was a bonus too! All staff were lovely and friendly. Massive thank you to Karen who was so helpful all the way through the process. All the guests loved the idea of the Routemaster Bus and enjoyed the ride. Thank you so much for letting us have our special day at Layer Marney Tower.We both had the best day ever. We couldn’t have asked for a better setting. The weather was a bonus too!

Guests were in aweGuests were in awe
Both Lucy and i would like to say thank you for all your help throughout the entire process. From the day we first looked round the venue we knew Layer Marney Tower was the magical place for our wedding and it did not disappoint on the day! The Gardens and rooms are brilliant and all the guests loved them. Thank you also for you (Karen), and your colleagues help throughout too. Providing us with information, letting us visit a number of times beforehand and being there to advise and direct and help on the day. Guests were in awe of where we got married and Lucy got her dream of getting married in a Castle (well tower is close enough!). We would definitely recommend Layer Marney Tower to anyone thinking of getting married!Both Lucy and i would like to say thank you for all your help throughout the entire process.
