ALTERNATIVE WEDDING VENUE IN LANCASHIRE
For couples who were never looking for the ordinary
The Olde England Kiosk is an alternative wedding venue in Lancashire, welcoming couples from Manchester and across the North West who want something different. Whether you’re drawn to gothic styling, non-traditional ceremonies, or a day that doesn’t follow a script, this is a space where your ideas aren’t just accepted — they’re encouraged.
A DIFFERENT KIND OF WEDDING
Not Traditional. Not Expected. Just you.
Not every couple sees themselves in a traditional wedding — and that’s exactly where we come in.
At The Olde England Kiosk, there’s no single way a wedding has to be. If you have an idea — and it can be made to work — we’ll help shape it.
Whether you’re drawn to gothic styling, alternative ceremonies, romantasy aesthetics or something that doesn’t quite fit into a category at all, this is a space where your ideas are taken seriously.
THIS ISN'T A TYPICAL WEDDING VENUE
A space that feels different from the start
Nestled in Sunnyhurst Wood, it’s quiet, atmospheric, and a little removed from everything else. The light shifts as the day goes on, and the space settles with it — there’s a natural rhythm to being here that you don’t get in more traditional settings.
It’s not a hotel, and it doesn’t feel like one. The space has its own character, shaped over time, and it holds the day without taking over.
And because it’s family run, nothing feels rushed or impersonal. You’re listened to, not processed.
WHAT YOUR DAY CAN BECOME
Ways it could take shape
Every wedding at The Olde England Kiosk is different, shaped around what matters most to you.
Guests arrive through the woodland, followed by a ceremony that actually reflects you. From there, the day opens out into something more relaxed — time to take it in, to capture it properly, and to be with the people you want around you.
However you see it, there’s space for it here. The ideas below give a sense of how that can come together.
HAVE IDEAS? WE CAN TALK THEM THROUGH
CEREMONIES DONE DIFFERENTLY
Where it begins
Ceremonies here don’t follow a fixed path. Some are simple and understated, others more symbolic — each shaped around the people at the centre of it.
​
That might be a traditional structure, a handfasting, or something less defined. This space allows it to take shape in a way that feels right for you.
​
CHOOSING YOUR PEOPLE
Suppliers
The people you bring in shape the day just as much as the space itself.
​
Some couples already know exactly who they want to work with, others prefer guidance. You’re not limited to a fixed list here, but we can recommend inclusive and accommodating suppliers we’ve worked with before.
HOW IT COMES TOGETHER
Shaping your day
Whether it’s a romantic twilight gathering or a full day spent with the people around you, everything here is built around a set of flexible packages.
​
They provide a starting point for the day, which can then be shaped and tailored with the details that make it your own.
