Venue

The venue is the single most important detail of the wedding day a couple will decide upon together.

These days choosing a wedding venue is no longer limited to a church or registry office.

It’s not unusual to hear of a ceremony taking place whilst the bride and groom bungee jump - in fact it brings a much more literal meaning to tying the knot.

Bizarre ideas aside, classic formal weddings are still the most popular.

The perfect wedding location is the part of the day that will go down in history. For years to come, guests will tell people about the wedding venue - and they will hold nothing back. What the food was like, how the tables were set, what the service was like and most of all - was it was a disaster or a dream venue.

Other than the traditional church, castles, stately homes and country clubs are all romantic alternatives.

Hotels are also a very popular choice, because it is simple to hold the reception in the same location.

Nowadays, British weather allowing, many couples are choosing to tie the knot outdoors. The increasing number of locations becoming registered to hold weddings has broadened choice enormously.

Picturesque parks or botanical gardens make for an opulent backdrop to the ceremony.

Your local town hall or registry office is a popular choice for people who have been married before, or those wanting a fussfree service. // "My Wedding Planner"
