    My venue does :)
    Its somewhere we go as a family in the summer, beautiful lakes & boats, lots of greenery & little duckies :) and it's central for all out guests which is a massive bonus :)

    It didn't mean anything to us.. before we booked the wedding, we had no idea it even existed. However, we now both love it and it does of course mean something to us because it is going to be where we get married!

    It is on the beach 5 minutes from where I grew up, so it means something to me in that it's in the place where I feel like a part of me will always be even though I don't live there anymore (hopefully I will again one day though)!

    I've always had an interest in Osborne House and the Victorians, so when we started looking and found a hotel that was a cottage attached to the Osborne estate, I personally did not want to look elsewhere. We went to look around and hubby said that we would not be looking elsewhere.

    Our venue was actually where I had my high school prom 11 years ago, although I have only realised this recently! It has been refurbed and rebranded since then so took a little while to put two and two together!

    The Church is very special to me. where my Grandparents got married, parents married, parents christened and confirmed and myself and sister christened.

    Reception venue doesn't make a difference. just found it online through wedding searches

    We picked the lighthouse for the ceremony because we both grew up by the sea and have an affinity for slightly crap British seaside towns. The island where we're having the reception is where we went on our first date outside of London when we first got together and we've been back for a picnic there every summer since.

    Cathedral is in local area where it meant a lot to ,y family :)

    The museum is somewhere which has been upgraded so not exactly the same as when I was a kid but I spent a lot of time there during school hols with my mum :) also the location being in city centre means we can go to beach across road and also on marina area where me and h2b spent a lot of our first few dates :)

    No the only reason I'd been there before was for work training but since I've seen it set up as a wedding venue that's all that I can think of it being x

    Indeed it does. I'm getting married at Butterley Grange Mansion on the outskirts of my town. It was/is the home of a local businessman and he only started opening it up to the public a few years ago.

    As a kid I'd ride by it in cars with family and I'd joke that it was 'all mine'. So, when I heard it was a new wedding venue... Yeah, you can imagine my face. ;)

    The church did as my parents got married there and me and my sister were also baptised there and other sacraments growing up. The reception venue didn't though. It was just a lovely venue that was convenient for travelling to from the church.

    my church is the church connected to my primary school so i had my first holy communion there and confirmation there.

    My reception venue i liked the thought of as my grandma and grandad used to be members of the leisure facility there so i used to go swimming there when i was younger.

    Little did i know when i booked it that 2 years later my grandad would die of cancer, so it definitely ended up as a very special place for me in the end as he wasn't there to witness it.

    kind of, my partner and i had a really awful christmas last year, we lost our baby mid pregnancy nov 25th and spent the following 2 weeks off work in the house while i recovered from the operation, the first time i felt good enough to go out of the house was about mid dec, steven decided to take me for dinner, we went to this beautiful newly managed inn and it was the first place i actually felt okay... its local to us and the landlady came over to give her sympathies but i was sat there looking around at how beautiful she had made the place - i asked her if we could have our wedding there, she was more than happy with that, even now when we go there for dinner, its one of the places we both feel very happy to be x

    Ours doesn't, It is a church that is only used for weddings and blessings. Where the meal is being held my H2B had is leaving meal there, He left Spain to move to Ireland with his then girlfriend and he returned to Spain after two weeks fortunately for me! x He gets ribbed about this from his friends from time to time as they paid for his meal. It doesn't bother me in the slightest that he went there with his ex girlfriend.

    Hubby was christened at the church where we got married. I wasn't keen on the idea of a church wedding to start with but eventually came round to the idea :) We had our reception in the goods shed at East Anglian Railway Museum. Hubby is a railway enthusiast and we could pretty much do whatever we wanted with it. We also had a carriage pulled in that people could sit in to relax a bit. We had so many comments on what a unique and unusual reception venue it was :)
