About Oddfellows Chester

Oddfellows is a wedding venue for dreamers, misfits and lovers of the beautifully bizarre. Our interiors, straight from a Wonderland daydream, are filled with whimsical details and mischievous charm.

If you want a “cookie‑cutter ballroom wedding”, this isn’t it — but if you want something genuine, characterful and memorable, you’re in the right place!

Step through our theatrical Georgian townhouse, climb the sweeping staircase, and you’ll find yourself in a world bursting with personality. Where chandeliers hang in unexpected places, tea party tables float from the ceiling, and boxing hares grin from the walls. Every corner is quirky, colourful, and totally unlike anything you’ve seen before.

Whether you envision an intimate “just us” ceremony or a wild, dance‑floor–ready soirée; we give you the freedom to celebrate big or small, loud or low‑key, with style and soul.

Why Oddfellows Chester isn’t your typical venue:

❤️ Unapologetically unique décor. This isn’t a neutral blank canvas: upside‑down tea‑room tables, eccentric artworks, rooftop terraces over chimney‑pots, secret‑garden hideaways — it’s a venue that speaks, laughs and surprises.

❤️ Boutique townhouse meets fairy‑tale mischief. A Grade II* Georgian façade wraps a whimsical interior: period features pair with playful twists for a blend of heritage and wonder.

❤️ Your wedding, your story. From a hush‑quiet 18‑guest tea‑room “I do”, to a 150‑guest rooftop cocktail‑and-dance celebration, we let you define what “wedding” means for you.

❤️ Sleep, sip, party and stay. With individually styled boutique rooms and suites on site, you and your guests can keep the vibe going, without ever leaving the building.

Ready to ditch tradition, celebrate with soul, and throw a wedding as unpredictable and magical as your love story? Send us an enquiry or make a booking for a private tour, let’s make odd the new perfect.

Oddfellows Chester Details

  • Oddfellows Chester is not your typical wedding venue, it’s a playground for the curious, the mischievous, and the delightfully unconventional.
  • We have a rooftop terrace with a twist. Toast cocktails with the Cheshire grin of Chester’s skyline around you, snap surreal photos, or disappear for a secret alfresco moment.
  • Our catering comes with character. Think afternoon teas that feel like a Mad Hatter’s party, rooftop BBQs with attitude, or a 3‑course feast designed for dreamers who refuse ordinary.
  • Enjoy boutique on-site accommodation. Stay in rooms that wink at you from the past, each individually styled with quirks, charm, and enough personality to keep your wedding party talking for years.
  • We have a wedding team as eccentric as your love story — flexible, inventive, and endlessly helpful, we’ll make sure your celebration is magical, stress‑free, and perfectly odd, even if you decide to book at the last minute.
  • Expect unexpected nooks, playful details, and a sense of mischief that turns your wedding into a storybook adventure.
