Tips for Planning a Spring Wedding


A Spring wedding is the dream for many couples. A season that symbolises new beginnings and blossoming futures. A time where everything seems possible. And with a number of bank holidays, there’s opportunities for weekend-long festivities to mark your big day.

Here’s our suggestions for the perfect Spring wedding!

Spring Wedding Food


While winter might be defined by hearty roast dinners and root vegetables, and summer by salads and other lighter fair, a Spring wedding is the perfect opportunity to find a happy medium. This allows space for experimentation when coming up with your Spring wedding menu ideas. Seafood like salmon or oysters are excellent options, providing meaty flavours without the weight of red meats.

When it comes to vegetables, greens and minty freshness are your friends, as well as more Mediterranean options. You could even have barbecue wedding catering if the weather allows!

For drinks, a cocktail hour as the sun sets is a great way to create a memorable start to the evening’s festivities.

Spring Wedding Venues


For many couples, the ideal is the Spring country wedding. This means they can be surrounded by the country in bloom, an ideal setting for a budding romantic life together.

Picking a wedding venue with substantial inside and outside space is essential. With Spring weather so temperamental and venues needing to be booked months in advance, it’s important to have contingencies in place for an overcast rainy April shower or a resplendent May afternoon.

Accommodation will also play a part in any couple’s choice of venue. Do the rooms reflect the rustic, desirable environment of a spring wedding, while also providing the requisite luxurious comfort that couples and their guests deserve on their wedding day?

The charming and historic venue has a warm and inviting atmosphere, with an airy courtyard that overlooks the rolling hills of the Cotswolds, as well as an impressive ballroom that merges contemporary design features with classical elegance.
