The venue is Belle Epoque in Knutsford, Cheshire and is the perfect setting for a winter wedding. We've opted to have the ceremony and reception in one venue. We want candles, log fires, elegant Christmas decorations (no tinsel!) and preferably a bit of snow (please please snow). There's a roof terrace which will be lit with storm lanterns and fairy lights.
We're planning on offering champagne or mulled wine on arrival before the ceremony. This will be followed by canapes (we need to pick 4 from the list below) and then a main course of 'tasting of lamb' which consists of... Individual Shepherd’s Pies, Cutlet of Lamb and Confit of Lamb shoulder served with Savoy Cabbage, French Beans and Confit of Garlic.
Dessert will be sticky toffee pudding if I get my way, with coffee, port or brandy, and either chocolate truffles or mini mince pies.
We've not decided on the evening buffet yet but we do want a tower of chocolate and cinnamon doughnuts if possible (damn Krispy Kreme for not being able to deliver).
Then honeymooning (is that a word?) in the Lake District followed by Mexico. CANT WAIT!
