Thank you to everyone who has responded so far. We’ve had a couple of questions so will try to answer them here.
Timings
You’ve noticed that there isn’t a time on the invitation – this is because we had them printed before we saw the wedding planner and we did not know exactly how things would pan out on the day. It’s looking like this:
12:00 – Arrival and check-in to rooms
12:45 – Short faith-based ceremony
13:00 – Break while we meet separately with the registrar. Drinks will be available in the bar.
14:00 – Registrar-led civil ceremony
14:30 – Welcome drinks and canapés
16.00 – Wedding Breakfast
18:00 / 18.30 ish – first dance
Party
12:00 – Carriages
Rooms
There are a number of rooms available in the venue itself – enough for most of the wedding party. We have pre-booked a number of these as part of the package and others are available on request, all on a first come first served basis. The cost is £200 per room, payable to us. They cannot be booked directly with the venue. Breakfast the next day in the main hall is included.
Each room is unique, but you will have a double bed (some are 4-posters) and a modern en-suite. Some are baths, others showers. If you have a particular preference, please let us know. There are two accessible rooms at ground floor level (in a separate building). One of these has already been requested by a couple of guests, but the other is available.
Any questions – please let us know!
