So many venues, each with their own unique vistas. If we say Plas Maenen, North Wales wedding venue in the Conwy Valley is definitley one of a kind, we wouldn’t be exaggerating! It’s stunning views of the valley are on the ‘Mach Loop’ flight training path for RAF Valley on Anglesey. Midweek weddings are often treated to a flypast from a variety of aircraft. This one was perfectly timed for the ceremony. Almost like we arranged it! www.plasmaenan.co.uk
Perfect pagodas?
Summer loving….. Nothing quite as perfect as exchanging your vows as your friends & family relax in the glorious weather.
The stunning Victorian style pagoda at Carden park, Cheshire wedding venue looks over the lake & golf course. The elegant structure suits your own decorations, or being left simple & stunning. A perfect frame for you both.
The big bonus at Carden park is the plethora of photo opportunites for you. The formal gardens and the golf buggy ride taking you around the bridges , trees and the amazing views across the Cheshire Plain from the highest point on the links.
Something a little less formal?
Wooden gazebos sit so well into the gentle landscapes. Subtley decorated to suit your theme. A great feature of the serene ceremony area at Moddershall Oaks Staffordshire wedding venue is the paved seating area. Great for ladies in heels!What a place to celebrate with your first kiss as a married couple. The sun shining on you and your family is the dream when you plan for an outdoor wedding ceremony.

Celebrating with your own wedding festival.
When natural & fun is your way to celebrate, how about creating your own festival in the Welsh countryside? Glamping & camping surrounded by the hills at Barnutopia North Wales wedding venue. Everything there for you to create your own vision.Whether you choose to have a local registrar, or a fantastic celebrant to curate a personalised ceremony around you both. You won’t find a better setting.
What if it rains when we planned an outdoor wedding ceremony??
Well, this is Britain….. No matter how many sausages we bury, sometimes the sun just doesn’t come out to play. Your venue will always have one eye on the weather forecast. They will do their absolute best to help you have the outdoor ceremony you hoped for. A final decision will be taken about an hour before the planned ceremony time, in case they have to set up indoors as a backup plan for you. Afterall, getting married is the most important thing.
A perfect example of ‘weather watching’ for this beautiful couple at their wedding. The staff at Albright Hussey Shropshire wedding venue bent over backwards in distinctly ‘changeable’ weather. The planned ceremony time was greeted with a thunderstorm! One of the huge benefits of having a celebrant led wedding is that they can be so much more flexible with their time. After everyone sheltered inside from the rain, the sun shone fantastically for the ceremony they worked so hard for.
Can it be too hot to get married outdoors????
Hard to believe in Britain, but yes! It can be too hot outside for the safety & comfort of your loved ones. Simone & Adam had a fabulous outdoor ceremony planned in the beautiful garden at Mytton Fold www.myttonfold.co.uk. Lancashire wedding venue. Everyone appreciated celebrating in the the cool of the air conditioned ceremony room.
