    Didn't SY have a 'friend' who hired out a place in cheshire ? Im sure that will be fine.

    Can they do the white doves and the falcons at the same time?

    Would liven up the afternoon no end.

    Got married here last year

    Northbrook Park | Wedding in Surrey | Hampshire Wedding Venues

    Exclusive county house venue, no corkage, on site accommodation, can use any catering you want, reasonably priced. Was a great success.

    This looks reasonable Oxon Hoath

    £3500 for the hall another £3000 for the food and £4000 to stay overnight but your guests may pay some of that bit.

    I went to the pub with my future FIL. After a few beers we were both agreed. Small, modest & close family was the way forward.

    After Mrs MF and the MIL went for a drink. Huge, extravagant and anyone they'd ever met for more than 5 minutes was the way forward.
