General Weddings Questions
I've just got engaged and want to get married, but I don't know where to start?
Most people start by deciding where they want to get married as depending on where it is, booking a venue is often what needs to be the most fixed part of planning a wedding. After that, you and your fiance will start looking at everything and anything from bridal wear to stag nights. Use the Weddings Diary to allow everyone concerned with your wedding to have up to date and easy access to your plans.
I'm looking for a range of venues in the North East - do you have any recommendations?
Currently we have sponsored ads from Beamish Park Hotel, Springfield Hotel, Gibside Hotel and Beamish Hall . See more details on their pages by following this link.
other hotels and venues can be found by using our search facility at the right hand side of this page.
When is a good time to start booking everything?
As soon as possible! Although weddings can be organised quickly when you put your mind to it, it probably best to allow a minimum of six months. Most brides plan a year in advance. This decision might be dictated by the availability of your chosen venue etc.
Is the venue the thing I have to book up first?
You don't have to, but it's a good idea as generally venues in the North East and UK in general are fully booked up to 2 years in advance. If you consider getting married on a day other than Saturday, you have more chance of getting the wedding venue and date you require.
I want a big church wedding and a big venue - it is still ok to have a buffet isn't it?
These days anything goes and if that's what you want then you should hold out for that. Many people choose to hold their wedding receptions in a marquee at venues if they are a large party and buffets would not be considered unusual at all. Look under caterers in your local county to see the choice. Alternatively, ask the venue what buffet facilities they can offer.
I am thinking about hiring a wedding planner, but don't want to lose control of what's happening - how would I find out what is best for me?
All wedding planners have a consultation with the bride and it is at this point you can discuss what you would like to be involved in and what you would like taken off your hands. You will generally find you are so grateful for the expertise and help, you will relish being able to enjoy the lead up to your wedding.
