Jellybean Memories at Tankersley
Over the years, we’ve created so many special memories at Tankersley Manor, and there are a few that stand out as extra special:
- Wedding Awards Nights: For the past five years, we’ve been proud to sit at their table at the North of England Wedding Awards and the IDo Magazine Wedding Awards in Leeds and Sheffield – supporting them as the finalists for their categories were announced. To us, they’ll always be winners!

- The Jellybean Selfie Wall: Did you know Tankersley Manor has its very own Jellybean Selfie Wall behind the bar in the Tankersley Suite? It’s filled with prints of the staff’s photos, many taken at our Magic Mirrors. While a few sneaky prints from other photobooth companies have made it up there, nothing beats a Jellybean photo!
- Jellybean Corner: Over the years, one particular spot at Tankersley Manor has become affectionately known as Jellybean Corner. It’s where we set up our photobooth for countless events, and even couples filling out their final details forms request it by name. It’s practically our second home within the venue!
