Our large café area transforms into a fantastic wedding venue. We decorate the area from scratch for every wedding, which means it isn’t any trouble to add extra touches that make it more personal to you. It’s a bespoke wedding venue without the price tag, so whether your tastes are contemporary or classic, traditional or unique, we’ll make it happen. We also have a luxury marquee for summer weddings, which as with our venue, can be decorated in keeping with your colour schemes and preferences.

<h2>The Service</h2>
If you’ve chosen not to get married in a church, it’s often difficult to find the right venue.
We can offer a complete package that includes your ceremony, ideal places for your photo’s and everything from 'I do' to the end of the night.
<h2>The Food</h2>
All our food is freshly prepared on site by our talented chefs to ensure you receive five star food and service. We offer a range of menu choices including the usual fixed menus and choices but we are also able to cater to any special requests. If you want your favourite food on the menu, just ask us.
<h3>Example Menu</h3>

To complement your food choices we can put together a drinks package which can include any of the following:
<ul>
 	<li>Drink on arrival</li>
 	<li>Drink for toast</li>
 	<li>Bottles for table</li>
 	<li>Top ups throughout the night</li>
</ul>
It’s up to you. You know your guests, so if they’re likely to drink spirits and beer, there’s no point putting bottles of wine on the table. If you don’t want the traditional champagne for toasts or on arrival we can offer Cava or Prosecco or an alternative such as Buck’s Fizz or bottles of beer.
