Describe the best wedding that happened at Cliff Hotel, Gorleston?
The ceremony commenced with heartfelt vows exchanged beneath a floral-embellished arch on our sun terrace overlooking the beach. Following the union, the celebration transitioned to a relaxed drinks reception and photos on the golden sand. Tables adorned with elegant centerpieces and warm lit ambience set the stage for a delectable wedding breakfast. After the newlyweds shared their first dance, the night crescendoed with a live band, DJ, plenty of glasses clinking and some questionable moves on the dancefloor! :-)
