YOUR SPECIAL DAY

There’s no one size fits all solution with weddings, so we’ve created a range of options to choose from:

Private Gathering: for 4-14 people or only those who really matter.
Intimate Party: for 15 – 44 people, 44 being the maximum number for table service.
The More The Merrier: for 45-80, with buffet service.

For prices please contact Judith our friendly wedding planner on 015395 68237 or info@the-punchbowl.co.uk.

FOOD & DRINK

Most of our bride and grooms opt for a classic wedding breakfast with dishes from our à la carte menu. We can also provide anything from fine-dining style tasting menus with wine pairing to hog-roasts or even a vegan afternoon tea party. You can have as many or as few add-ons as you like, including, canapés, an outdoor cocktail hut, grazing table or late night bacon sandwiches to name a few.

CEREMONY

For a traditional ceremony with real wedding bells, we’re lucky enough to have the beautiful St Mary’s Church next door. Alternatively, Kendal Registry Office will conduct intimate ceremonies inside the Punch Bowl. No matter which option you choose, our weddings are always beautifully styled to your exact requirements.

RECOMMENDED SUPPLIERS

We have been hosting weddings for over 10 years and over that time we’ve got to know some great local suppliers. For the prettiest stationery, go no further than Ellie Heaven, who recently created some beautiful Summer & Winter illustrations of The Punch Bowl. As for the photography, we recommend Tiree Dawson and Stephen Yates. With regards to flowers, Brackens of Bowness have always impressed us with their reliability and attention to detail. Last but not least, for the entertainment there’s Anfield Agency, who offer an amazing range of options.

BRIDE & GROOMS REVIEWS

Holly & Josh: The perfect venue for our Winter wedding with cosy log fires, candle lights and woodland decorations. Couldn't fault anything from the amazing food to the friendly team and how brilliant Judith was in organising everything. It's also been a delight to get so many compliments on the venue from all our guests, from the ten to the ninety something year old's!

Izzy & Johnny: Best Day Ever! Still can't stop grinning! 10/10 for the organisation, decoration, food, drink and ambiance - has to be the best venue in the Lake District for an intimate wedding, hands down! Massive thank you xxx

Kirsty & Simon: When deciding on our wedding venue, our priority was somewhere providing a relaxed but stylish environment with excellent food, fine wines and exceptional customer service - The Punch Bowl exceeded on all. On the weekend of our wedding, there was a warm and friendly atmosphere from arrival through to when we left, the whole team made sure everything ran smoothly and provided a personal touch throughout. We can’t wait to go back!
