Spotlight on ceremonies: Civil, Celebrant or Church 

A growing desire burgeons as not only where to have the ceremony but on the type of ceremony. In a generation where couples have found their soulmate in each other over a period of time, it seems almost obligatory to dedicate and incorporate elements of that special love journey within the marriage ceremony.

Years ago it was just civil or church. Now the choice is abundant. At Colwick Hall, as a venue, all the function suites are licensed for civil ceremonies. This makes for enormous ease to keep all aspects of the wedding under one roof. Equally flexible in the opportunity to get married at church and here are some located nearby, Beeston Parish Church, Cornerstone Church Nottingham, St Mary’s in the Lace Market. This saves turn around time at the venue and you will be greeted with balloons and confetti as you arrive as a wedded couple in your wedding car along the drive and around the turning circle. In each of the options above there is some ability to customise your vows. Yet there is a further ability to customise your special union in the way that spells love and carries personal meaning by engaging a celebrant such as Claire Lawrence, and Acorn 2 Oak Ceremonies. Here you can work with someone and build trust and confidence over a period of time.

As we are licensed to all civil ceremonies in all function suites and do not charge any extra for ceremonies of any kind, booking your registrar is as simple as getting in touch on their website and confirming that their availability aligns with the venue.

Planning a wedding or renewal of vows is a very special occasion and especially personal to make the day flow just as you want. Having reviewed the options and costs involved and of course the booking process, the most crucial aspect then is availability. Coordinating the date whether the holidays if you are a teacher, and setting a date with enough notice for family and friends to attend. With good weather there is also the opportunity to have an outdoor ceremony in gardens with a lake view.
