Hello,


My partner and I are getting married next Autumn. Our plan is to have a very intimate ceremony close to home in London during the week (non church) and then to have a celebration of our marriage at the weekend in the peak district (where we are both from). I'm hoping this will keep costs down.


Despite this I'd like somewhere prettier than some of the local registry offices to actually get married. It will be a family only service of approx 15 people and we will not require anything other than the ceremony itself.


Any thoughts on a local and reasonably priced venue for this?


Thanks

I was also pleasantly surprised at how attractive the Southwark Register office is. Mr Saff and I were married there. We looked at the Hornimal too, but alas they weren't offering winter ceremonies (we were married in Jan). So be sure you check the dates available, as some venues are limited. Also look at Dulwich Picture Gallery.
We recently got married in the Council Chamber of Hackney Town Hall. It's a beautiful room with oak pannelled walls and seats in a tiered horseshoe shape so everyone can see you. Th town hall itself on Mare Street is a gorgeous Art Deco building with stone steps at the front which are perfect for a photo opportunity. The registrars are very helpful - the whole thing was lovely It's set back from the road as well, so no traffic streaming by. We had so many positive comments from our guests, I would definitely recommend it.

    • You can make cider from a variety of varieties of apple.  If course the best is west country/SW Midlands which is predominantly cider apples, that can be so tart it knocks your head off.  But cider producers often add desert apples, and Breton and Normandy ciders are sweeter.  
    • Hi,  We are welcoming a puppy to our family in a couple of months, and since I'm new to the area, I'm looking for some local recommendations.  I am looking for the following:  Highly recommended vet  Groomers (they are a cavapoo, so will be a regular!)  Group puppy training classes  Thank you 🙂
    • I too am very sorry to hear this, taliax7. It must weigh heavily over you and your family. 
    • We did L-shaped conversion and put the bathroom in the middle so could be shared by both front and rear bedrooms and strongly recommend this. We'd stayed in places with ensuite bathrooms in front bedroom and didn't want kids / guests having to walk through front bedroom from back bedroom. All of our loft rooms feel spacious and have lots of light. You can add more roof windows and adding a side window in addition to rear window on back bedroom makes a huge difference to the feel and light. Think how you'll use the rooms and where the furniture will go; and pay attention to where you'll have reduced headroom as this catches lots of people out and having to make mid-build changes. Suggest view your neighbours lofts and see what you like and what you don't. Hope this helps
