Invitation to Experience Award-Winning Wedding Venue
An award-winning Lincolnshire wedding venue is inviting couples planning on tying the knot to its annual wedding fayre.
Washingborough Hall hotel, which recently won Wedding Venue of the Year for the third consecutive time in the Taste of Excellence Food and Drink Awards, will be opening its doors on 28th January between 11am and 3.30pm.
The hotel’s very own Director of Romance Amy Thorne said it is an opportunity to discover what makes the Georgian country house so unique.
“We’re very proud of the reputation we’ve built up over the years as one of Lincolnshire’s top wedding venues,” explained Amy. “Imagine pretty gardens, log fires and cosy country-check interiors, and you’ll start to understand the magic that makes Washingborough Hall so special.
“Hotel owner Lucy Herring or myself personally oversee all of the weddings to make sure they go without a hitch and we are lucky to have such a fabulous location and team. The hotel is situated in three acres of mature landscaped gardens and we have a beautiful orangery which can cater for up to 110 guests.”
As well as having a tour of the hotel and sampling the food prepared by award-winning head chefs Mark Cheseldine and Anthony Smith, guests will be able to meet a range of suppliers from florists to photographers who have all been hand-picked by Amy and Lucy.
Bridal boutiques The Ivory Room and Belle and Bouquet will also be there on the day to give brides-to-be advice on finding the perfect gown, while bespoke tailor Andrew J Musson will be showing his latest range of wedding and formal suits.
Magician Scott Perry will have a few tricks up his sleeve to impress the happy couples and QL Entertainment will be bringing along some musicians including a harpist.
Guests will also have a chance to enter a competition to win afternoon tea for two at Washingborough Hall.
