Winter wedding? This is your place! They have really considered how to make weddings outside of the summer months a wonderful experience and of course, opting for a celebration from October to April can be kinder on the finances too, and your in-demand vendors are typically easier to secure.
Transform the rustic spaces into a cocooning, comfortable and enchanting atmosphere with, for example, thick carpets, floor cushions, plaids, armchairs and fleece blankets outside on the sofas or in a completely glamorous atmosphere. Choose warm colours, candles, indirect lighting, fire baskets outside and crackling fire in our large fireplaces for the total atmosphere in combination with, for example, hot chocolate with marshmallows, a soup bar, mulled wine bar or grilled chestnut bar. It's the details that will make up the charm of the setting for a fairy-tale atmosphere every time.
Another advantage of this seasonal period is the beautiful light and colours that nature has. Totally beautiful for your photo shoot!
