Me and my fiance Dave went to visit Newstead Abbey which we are considering as a venue for our civil ceremony. Its about 90 miles from worcester so thats about 1hr 45 mins drive which is quite far but we both really like it so at the moment its Number 1 on our list.
The walk […]

Dave has now changed his mind about where we’re having our Wedding Banquet. We were originally going to have it in Birmingham, probably China Court but now he has suggested we have it in Nottingham - Mr Man’s, as its closer for his Dad. I have no problems with either city but we really need […]

Ettington Park
32 miles from Worcester
43 miles to Birmingham
This venue is alot further away but if its worth it, we would sacrifice our sleep to make sure we wake up in time to get to this venue.
The front
The Long Gallery which is located on the 2nd floor. Its quite a dark room but can hold 96 […]

We went to visit 2 venues last week for our Civil Wedding. They are both in Warwickshire which is abit further than we’d like to travel but we want our wedding to take place somewhere nicer than the normal Registry Office. I took quite a few pictures but I won’t put them all here.
Billesley Manor

Update on the search for a venue
Posted on August 13, 2007 - Filed Under Wedding Venues | 1 Comment
After a few days of me moaning to Dave about looking for a suitable venue, we finally found time to sit down together and search for a venue. We narrowed it down to 6 so far.
Highbury Hall in Mosely, Birmingham
Himley Hall in Dudley
The Nash in Kempsey
The Elms in Worcester
Ettingham Park Hotel in Warwickshire
Billesley Manor in […]
The venue search

I’m still searching………..
Ok so I think we can honestly say that areas between Worcester and Birmingham is what we’re looking for. Areas north of Birmingham city centre are a no go.
I have been going through all the sites on Worcester’s City Council website which lists the approved premises for Civil Wedding’s in Worcestershire and I […]
The Mill Hotel in Alveley
Posted on July 29, 2007 - Filed Under Wedding Venues | 2 Comments
Another contender for our Civil Wedding Venue. The Mill Hotel is located in Shropshire which is about 22 miles away from Worcester, according to Google maps. The website doesn’t have many pics of the hotel exterior so I’m not sure what to think, if it can’t show any good pics online, is that meant to […]

Possible venue for our Civil wedding Ceremony
New Hall Hotel
Its in Sutton Colefield so its in our traveling range. I’m not too sure about the rooms available for our ceremony, they don’t look that great.
Its abit too dark for my liking
I dunno why but these rooms look small for me
We’ll have to go and visit, once […]
Grafton Manor

I recieved another wedding brochure today, I have to say I felt abit guilty having all these brochures as I know they’re not that cheap to make. Anyway, this manor is very close to where I work so that’s why I was a little hesitate to contact them. My sister has been to this manor […]

Another Wedding brochure in the post today, Birtsmorton Court near Evesham, its a moated Manor but its about 30 mins away from where I live which I don’t think would be ideal because its south Worcester which means it would take about 1hr 10mins to get to Birmingham for our Banquet which I think is […]
