To begin with we looked at some more traditional wedding venues but realised they just weren’t for us.
We were looking for a relaxed venue that we could hire for the day and night and realised it was right under our noses.

The Perry Hill is our local pub .. and ticked all the boxes for what we wanted .. a cosy, but large venue for our November wedding .. fabulous food and friendly staff who all had our backs.. and were genuinely excited about working the event !

The pub is big - as is their garden so we didn’t have an issue with numbers . The pub has a very large inflatable igloo in the garden which we used as a Photo Booth - the space worked brilliantly ….
On arrival guests were handed a drink and asked to direct themselves to the garden for mingling and pictures. We had lots of pre teens at the wedding who ran around the garden and had fun without causing any problems !

The smaller side of the pub was set up for our ceremony - we were officially married 2 weeks previously -so this was not a legal ceremony - but loads of fun! A friend re-married us and we said our vows etc.. got a fabulous group shot of the entire congregation !

Whilst we had a group photo outside the tables and chairs were arranged for lunch .. Phil’s food choice's worked perfectly - for meat eaters and vegans. We had a buffet rather than table service - and the food flowed … everyone commented on the fabulous flavours and variety .. in the evening we had more food - burgers / chips / toasties.
No one went hungry ..!

We had a band and a disco in the evening ..loads of space for dancing and for those who didn’t want to dance - there was a seating around the other side of the bar for chatting.

If we did it all again - I wouldn’t change a thing .. it was a brilliant day - smoothly run - no problems whatsoever. Best bar staff and chefs … Phil and his team were a 10/10 !
