CommentAuthorlizzylou
I looked around Albright Hussy as a friends sister married their and they had a fabulous time. Not quite right for what we wanted but a lovely venue. Let us know how you get on. x

I looked at Madeley Court Hotel, Lilleshall, Haugton House Hotel, Old Colehurst Mannor. I had a dream of Combermeere Abbey - the big glass house - but it was a bit pricey for us and we wanted to have somewhere most of our guests could stay - lots - almost all are travelling a mid - long distance!
Let me know how you get on!! Oh, and have you got a date set yet? xx

Just to add, quite a few of the places we looked at - including the Lion Quays where we finally settled on - look totally different from the website to in the real world! So make sure you look around lots! The room i loved the most at Lion Quays rooms isn't even really pictured on their website - it was only that my mom had been there before that we went and looked!
Happy venue shopping! x

Not set a date as yet I know roughly when but I suppose it depends on the venue being avaliable, I would like to get one set this year though x

We're getting married in Malvern registry office and then the reception is at the worcester city cricket ground.
We've pretty much got everything booked up now.

CommentAuthorDefinatelyDead
we're going with S&B. We're contacting both the brewery and the rugby club for the reception. Needed somewhere close by as we dont have cars and with a low budget cant afford them. theres a fair at the castle in april so hoping to get info there for extra things we may have overlooked.
CommentAuthorMrsBroady2B
It was nice. Lovely place. Shame she had loads of guests not turn up and others left early. So her big room looked empty.
CommentAuthorlizzylou
Oh no MrsBroady that's awful!! Did she have the whole thing in the big room? We've booked to have our ceremony and meal in the conservatory and then move into the big room for just the evening. x
Lizzy. x
CommentAuthorMrsBroady2B
Yeh she did the same as that. I was only there for the evening though, so never got to see the conservatory.
