The Halliwell Jones Stadium at Winwick Road, Warrington will be hosting a stunning Wedding Show on the 1st April.

Featuring a dazzling catwalk show with representatives from the North West's leading wedding suppliers on hand to advise and assist, this could be the place to get some ticks on your 'to do' list. Full details of the show can be found on thebestof Macclesfield’s Events page.

Of course Macclesfield has a wealth of local businesses ready and waiting to help make your day special.

Carrie Newman Hair and Make Up specialises in ensuring bride and attendants look stunning on this special day, and will bring her talents to your home. With several celebrity clients under her belt she knows all there is to know about making sure you look great.

If you'd rather escape the chaos at home then pay a visit to Decadent Hairdressing, where their hairdressing skills are matched by their ability to provide a warm, friendly atmosphere guaranteed to calm those wedding day butterflies.

Mawson Hairdressing on Chestergate can also offer a unisex service (perhaps a good idea for him and the groomsmen – keeps them out of trouble for the morning!). The Macclesfield salon has been awarded a 5 star rating by the Good Salon Guide, they can also offer professional cuts, colours and hair extensions if you want something different for your big day.

To guarantee the groom and his aides turn a few heads as well as the bride, visit Best Man Ltd on Sunderland Street, Macclesfield. For over more than two decades they have built an enviable reputation as one of the leading menswear hire specialists in the area, and can kit out the man of the moment in styles from traditional to contemporary.

This wedding day will only happen once so it is vital that your precious memories are captured and preserved by the very best. Darren Bardsley from Bardsley Photography is one of the leading photographers in the area and has all the professionalism, experience and equipment to ensure each special moment is created and preserved forever.

Guests coming from afar?  Moorhayes Guest House in Tytherington prides itself on a home from home atmosphere and an unbeatable breakfast (for that post wedding hangover!) offering a range of accommodation options at reasonable prices.

If the celebrations go according to plan not many people will be wanting to drive on this particular occasion, so contact Silvertown Call-A-Car who can arrange all your wedding transport needs, from getting the guests home to getting you to the airport for your Honeymoon.

And talking of honeymoons, Co-operative Personal Travel Advisor Jill Wilson has an enviable reputation in Macclesfield for being THE person to turn to when you want the holiday of a lifetime - offering a personal service second to none and a travel knowledge Judith Chalmers would be envious of, you can guarantee a honeymoon to remember and all the organising done for you.
