February/March 2020

 
Goodbye winter, ice, and coats and hello spring – we’ve missed you so much! I’m so excited to see what our brides and lovely local suppliers do with the Pantone colour of the year, classic blue, which is said to bring calmness, confidence and connections for all.

We have some exciting features for this issue to make the planning of your big day much easier, and enjoyable.

Our transport feature’s perfect for inspiration on how to arrive in style, while our mouth-watering catering feature gives you an insight into the companies that dish up the delectable delights.

Check out our honeymoon pages, which showcases beautiful destinations as well as all the latest news from around the region in our nearlywed news feature.

And finally, don’t forget to take a step back in time and discover venues with a story to tell in our historic venues feature and who knows, your dream big-day setting might be just a page turn away!

That’s all from me, now sit back, relax and celebrate anything and everything wedding!

Doddington Hall & Gardens

The Coach House is a beautiful and tranquil setting with mature gardens providing the perfect backdrop for stunning wedding photos. Cottage garden planting and stylish lanterns adorn the exterior making it a welcome entrance for all guests.

The Coach House is a sensitive mix of old and new, boasting the original beamed interior with modern yet neutral paint colours, plain flooring and comfortable soft furnishings. The modern, airy dining room has glass doors running the length of the room, which really brings the outside in.

Say ‘I do’ in The Long Gallery in the Hall itself, which seats up to 120 guests or The Garden Room, which seats up to 70 loved ones.

Receptions take place in The Coach House, which can seat up to 120 for dining and 150 for an evening reception. Couples will love the private, pretty walled garden attached to the venue, for exclusive use on the day of their wedding, and stunning views.

Doddington Hall & Gardens offers a free bride and groom group menu tasting at the beginning of each year and exclusive use of the restaurant for a pre-wedding supper the night before the wedding, plus post-wedding buffet breakfast the morning after.
