Right from our very first meeting at Cotswold House Hotel, we knew that it was the right venue for us. Mandy, our coordinator, arrived armed with a printed brochure and a plethora of information. She was organised and thorough throughout the whole planning process, meeting with us as regularly as we wanted, and always being available by email to answer my many questions. She also was able to recommend fantastic local suppliers, like The Bay Tree florist. On the day, the staff were wonderful, even making sure we got to eat the canapés at the drinks reception after our formal photos were complete. So many of our guests commented on the food, saying it was the best wedding food they had ever had!
The venue itself is stunning, and fully air-conditioned - which was particularly important for us during an August heat wave. The gardens are wonderful, especially for a summer wedding. We had our ceremony in The Fig, which was a selling point for me. I loved the natural light from the windows overlooking the garden, and the Georgian feel of the room. We then had our breakfast and reception in The Montrose Suite, which was the perfect size for our 60 guests. We stayed in one of the hot tub suites, which was ideal for bridal preparations, there was so much room downstairs for hair, makeup, and bridesmaids. I'm so glad we chose Cotswold House Hotel for our wedding venue, it could not have been more perfect. We have the best memories, and photos from the day!
