Wedding Venues for Wedding Parties Hotels Functions Ceremonies Devon UK
Devon offers a superb choice of wedding hotels, many of which are licensed for civil ceremonies, and fully equipped with excellent banqueting facilities. You can even get married in a Devon Castle! If you've a Devon wedding venue in mind either for just the Wedding Reception or the full civil ceremony package it's worth going prepared with a series of questions and a checklist of issues to ensure that you're getting the venue that best services your needs. The first question is whether the venue is available for the date you require. Many Devon wedding venues book up over a year in advance. Other issues you may not have considered include things like what happens if the weather is poor, some venues will not allow confetti throwing, can you set up your own wedding flowers in advance, can the venue accommodate the number of guests you have in mind, will a dressing room and pre-ceremony accommodation be available for bride and groom and so forth.
Wedding venues licensed for civil wedding ceremonies are getting increasingly diverse. Wedding venues now can include hotels, stately homes, manor houses, football clubs, museums, theme parks and even zoos!
Devon is indeed a romantic setting, with an idyllic coastline both North and South, and some of the best luxury wedding hotels in the country. It's good to be imaginative, and think of a quirky wedding reception venue for you and your guests, but think through the effect of the venue on the event. Ever attended a wedding reception in a venue which is completely non-smoking, to find that half of your guests spent most of your wedding reception in the smoking cloakroom??

Ask also about confetti throwing, what decorative detail is included in the price, storage for wedding presents, checkout times for the following day and what facilities are available for children. Suggested menus should be included in the brochure, but check just exactly what is inclusive in the price - wine and extra drinks are usually extra!
