Hey all! So we went to see a wedding venue on saturday thats only 30 mins away from us and OMG we loved it! The woman kind of showed us around in a whirlwind but she was lovely and within that whirlwind we heard what we needed to hear! The place is lovely and very romantic, large wooden beams everywhere.... dark red velvet curtains everywhere (which are opened to the next room if we needed more space) and you get married in this room where all the curtains are closed and its candlelight all the way down the aisle. Oh its just so pretty! And its only £2500 for the package (which we queried with her if it went up in price as we're not getting married till 2013 or 2014 and she sed no, that if we book it, with paying the deposit the price remains as it is :D BONUS Here is what we get in the package.........
Want a small initimate Civil Ceremony and Wedding Breakfast for close family and friends but a big party on the evening? Then South Causey is the venue for you!
We are delighted to be able to offer you one of our function rooms for up to 30 guests for your Civil Ceremony and then a three course meal and drinks followed by an evening reception for 80 guests in our Durham Suite.
We are offering an All Inclusive price of only £2,500. (Extra Day Guests £60 per person / Extra Night Time Guests £11.25 per person)
Everything below is included in the above price for 30 daytime guests and 80 evening guests -
Your Personal Attendant throughout the day.
Civil Wedding Ceremony with Red Carpet aisle.
White table cloths, napkins, table runners, scatter crystals or petals, 40" mirror plates and a choice of table Centrepiece to dress the room during the day.
Crystal T Light Holders
Seat covers & sashes in your choice of colours to dress the chairs during the day.
Silver square, round or 3 tier cake stand & cake knife.
Three Course A La Carte Meal for your Daytime guests.
Welcome Drink of Bucks Fizz or Pimms A glass of Red, White or Rose Wine at the table Sparkling Wine for your toast Tea, Coffee and Mints
A choice of evening buffet for 80 guests.
Disco entertainment.
Luxury Bridal Suite for the Bride & Groom and Full English Breakfast next morning.
Free Car Parking for your guests. Use of the Whole Estate for your photos.
10% Discount for Accommodation for your guests.
First Anniversary - We would liek to see you again and celebrate one year on together - complimentary stay at the Inn including Full English Breakfast.
The only thing we're thinking is that we may need 40 people for the day time, so we're going to ask them if they'll come down on the £60pp if we dont have deserts. The guests can have wedding cake instead :D So if we can get it for say £50pp then thats only an extra £500 still making it only £3000 for the whole wedding! EEEEEEEEEEEEEK!
Just got to see whether the dates we want are available.... we were thinking either 1st September 2013 (as its the closest sunday to our anniversary) or 4th May 2014 (as its the date we first went on holiday together)
Then just have to wait until parents return from holiday to take them to see it and pay the deposit.
I cudnt be more happy :-) xxx
Happily Married! :) xxx

I'm hoping so even if its just £10pp they come down by, id be happy! My parents were looking to give us £5k I think so that would cover everything :-) I still can't stop thinking about it! Even my h2b was like (and hes usually v reserved) and hes like so we'd get married here, then be seated here, and we cud put dance floor here it was like he was imagining the wedding :) made me v happy x
Happily Married! :) xxx

My H2B was like that.... not too bothered on the whole wedding subject but once we saw the venue and he could picture everything it all became very real and he was excited. Once the deposit is paid you can start doing everything else so exciting xx

Haha, i was like that as we viewed our venue in the January with my mum but my dad was paying and wanted to see it first so had to wait until the April for him to come over from Singapore to view it, they were a long 3 months. Then he viewed it and paid deposit straight away but i was so excited and hate waiting. xx

nicola if you have kids at the day time hun like bridesmaids etc ask to pay for a kids meal for them and then it doesnts cost too much more as the kids meals are about £13 i think when we asked about it x

Cant wait to do it all over again in 2018
CommentAuthorb2bnicola
Oh thats a good idea! There'll be 4 kids there during the day so I could put them as over the 30 guests so i wouldnt have to pay loads for them! Good thinking! I like that you've been to this venue so u know all the tricks :P hehe x

CommentAuthorbrilly
we asked about it hun and they were more then happy to do it for us its a big difference to the price of adult meal and not alot of kids would sit down to eat what they have on the menu anyway did they give you the pack hun with everything in it?? it should have the kids meal price in there hun and what it is they offer x

CommentAuthorWifey2be
thats a brill price i paid 4,000 for my reception alone and that only included the same style of drinks and three course meal and dj and room lol ! you got yaself a bargain!! xx
CommentAuthorb2bnicola
Thats wot I thought. We can't really afford a BIG wedding that costs the earth so this is the kind of deal we needed to find really! We can still have a good sized wedding but without the massive price tag :) x

Wow hun, it sounds lovely and a really good price for what you get. You must be ecstatic and so excited! I remember that feeling back in February when H2B and I viewed hunton park for our reception venue and totally fell in love with it and couldn't wait to show our parents and his dad's girlfriend! :D
It'll be the best feeling when you get the confirmed booking in the post from the venue ............it'll feel so amazing xx
