Fairy weddings all year round

It might be traditional to be a summer bride but planning an autumn or winter wedding is a great way of standing out from the crowd - and carries hidden benefits that'll make you glad you waited until summer was over!!

Imagine your guests’ delight when they receive your invita-tion to an event that doesn't conflict with their summer holiday or other weddings on the same weekend. Envisage the stunning, alternative scenery - picture the trees begin-ning to turn their leaves or visualise a spectacular snow or frost-covered backdrop adding that perfect finish to your treasured photos

Substitute the traditional Champagne and add a touch of class with a more warming drink option, such as hot mulled wine or Winter Pimms, which will heat your guests from the outside in..

Throw in a theme to the time of year by including tradition-al seasonal fare - pumpkin-based dishes will go down a storm in the autumn, while everyone will marvel at a hog roast extravaganza with old fashioned toffee apples as your evening buffet or enjoy a traditional festive Christmas turkey dinner.

Winter weddings are truly unforgettable. Silks, velvets, furs, rich colours, candlelight inside and dark skies outside…. Book your Winter Wedding at Callow Hall with its open log fires or East Lodge with its floodlit water gardens and turn your fairytale dreams into reality.
