We knew we wanted to have a summer wedding, but our date was mostly determined by the availability of our chosen venue and the varying prices of the seasons. June, July, August tend to be more pricy, which is why Spring and Autumn weddings are increasingly popular. This September I went to a beautifully sunny wedding that it could have been mid summer!
We found trying to secure both the venue and the church for the same date was a juggling act, but it's all worked out fine. I can see the advantage of having the ceremony and reception at the same place if you have the option!
It can be hard choosing somewhere so far in advance (for us it was 17 months), but once you've put a deposit down you have your wedding date! Then it's time to start planning and booking everything else!
Some useful wedding venue sites:
On the weddings site for
South West Tourism you can search by type of wedding, amount of guests and as well as by area.
A National site with many search results
weddingvenues.com has very detailed descriptions, lots of photos, and a contact form to request a brochure for each venue.
An extensive list of wedding venues with useful descriptions can be found at
westcountryweddingguide.co.uk.
Love the marque! So atmospheric for a wedding. Will yours have windows like this one?
