Testimonials

Amanda & Michael

“We had the best day ever getting married at Leicester Guildhall & Abbey Pumping Station; all our guests were blown away by the venues. I couldn’t recommend a better venue to get married in Leicester. You do an amazing job; everyone is so friendly and welcoming; really put me and Michael at ease on the day."

Naomi & Josh

“First of all I would just like to say how pleasant and easy and enjoyable an experience it was having our wedding at the Guildhall. The building of course is absolutely stunning - it was the perfect cosy October venue for a very drizzly October day - and Ben and Sally were so helpful and accommodating and made the entire process so simple for us from start to finish”

Mr & Mrs Wellington

"We want to express our gratitude to you for the amazing and professional service that you provided to us for our wedding. We had the pleasure of booking your venue and were not disappointed in the slightest. We were amazed at how professional and approachable your staff were and how accommodating and easy you made it all. The overall attitude of the staff really helped make the day very special”
