Marple, with its famous flight of locks on the Peak Forest Canal and green spaces like Brabyns Park, is one of the prettiest parts of Stockport. It's a natural setting for garden weddings, village fetes and summer parties.
For weddings we serve during the drinks reception or as an evening treat, with personalised wafers to match the day. For fun days and fetes, the van keeps a big queue moving quickly.
Some Marple venues are up narrow or steep lanes, so tell us the address when you enquire and we'll plan access and parking in advance.
- Weddings: Drinks reception or evening treat.
- Village fetes: Quick service for big queues.
- Access planned: Tell us the venue, we plan the route.

Marple is hilly, green and full of character, with the canal locks and Brabyns Park at its heart. It's a lovely setting for garden weddings and village fetes, but some roads are steep and narrow, so we'll plan access with you in advance.

Austin Ices saved the day at our event! They turned up at very short notice & were fantastic. We will definitely be using them again.
Fantastic service and great ice cream! He arrived on time, was very courteous and most importantly the ice cream was fantastic. I would certainly recommend Austin.
