I have just been going through the price lists for all the venues on our 'short-list' and just seen this one that I somehow missed before :dohh:...

They dont charge a venue hire, but instead just charge per head (with a minimum number of heads) :thumbup:


This is what their wedding package includes:
  • Reception drinks of Bucks Fizz or Pimms on arrival
  • Three course wedding breakfast including coffee (choose two set meals for each course)
  • Half a bottle of wine per person with the meal
  • A glass of sparkling wine for the toast
  • Evening disco
  • All table linen and napkins
  • Use of silver cake stand and knife
  • Evening buffet (8 items, extra items £1 each per person)
  • Hall hire
  • Security
All that is for £60 per person (£8.50 added per evening guest). Children under 10 having the three course meal charged at half adult rate and obviously get childrens portions.

As we have decided that we actually dont want hoards of people (70-80 people MAX), that actually works out really well for us. AND, my friend works for them so I have an insider to make sure everything goes to plan!!

The only downside is that it doesnt have a wedding licence so the ceremony would need to be held elsewhere, which is also ok coz I only want bare minimum people at the ceremony anyway (parents, bridesmaids, grooms best men...no brothers, sisters etc), and this venue has no parking :shock: But I was thinking, if we are getting all that for so cheap (for what it is) then I would consider just hiring a bus to collect people from a specified location :shrug:

Yet to go see the place, but the pics look ok. I'll be gutted if I go there and it's a complete crap-hole :rofl::rofl: But all this is only gonna cost £1k - £1.5k more than just the price of venue hire for some of our other venues :flow:
 
Sounds like a great deal, dont bother spending a ton on stuff you dont actually need/want. A friend of mine has hired a traditional red London bus to ferry people to her wedding, i cant wait!!
 
Lol, we would probably just hire a Bedfordia coach :haha::haha:
 
Sounds like a good deal, although i wouldn't say bargain :rofl: A golf club near us offers that for £47 per head :) Hope you like it when you go to view xx
 
lol 'bargain' compared to the other venues we were looking at!! And the golf club near us wants me to sell vital organs to pay their fees :shock:
