Describe the best wedding that happened at Bush Hotel, Farnham?
I enjoy all the weddings - when the sun is shining everyone always seems happier! However, we recently held a wedding where the groom was South African - they wanted to show his side of the family a real 'British' event and so we did an Afternoon Tea Wedding Breakfast with a 'Gin in Teacups' bar - the decor was amazing - very autumnal and it was a great day to be involved with!
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Don't rush the arrival drinks!
Couples tend to make the time after the ceremony and before the wedding breakfast too short and are rushing to get photos done, say hello and enjoy the food! Relax and enjoy this time! Let everybody hug you and congratulate you!
What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?
One wedding had the 6 year old flower girl (and daughter) do the place settings for each guest - each one had their name and a unique picture on each - they were so bright and colourful and put a real personal touch on the whole day.
Where’s the best photo spot at Bush Hotel, Farnham?
Our iconic doorway!
We are really lucky to have lots of green spaces for photographs too, given that we are in the centre of town.
Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at Bush Hotel, Farnham?
Not in my time.....watch this space!
What’s your favourite canapé?
Chicken Tostadas, YUM!
What’s your favourite midnight treat?
Bacon Roll!
What is Bush Hotel, Farnham most unique feature?
Its overall quite a unique venue but the open fires in every space are always welcome - even in the summer - they add loads of character to the space and set the tone!
What part of your business are you most proud of?
We have only been independent since the beginning of 2022 and are a completely new team so I'm super proud of everything really - creating our own experience for guests and building their weddings with them bit by bit.
