Astley Bank’s wedding open night is a fantastic chance to get to know our super-friendly team and our ever-reliable suppliers. But perhaps one of the most important people to meet and talk to are our wedding coordinators, who will hopefully have the honour of planning all aspects of your Big Day. With years of experience in the weddings and events industry, they are laser-focused on making sure that every single element of your wedding is executed perfectly and that you remember this day with fondness for the rest of your life. Visiting the wedding open day not only gives you the option to speak to loads of people in the trade face to face. It’s a fantastic opportunity to take away business cards, flyers, brochures, and most importantly, vital information from each supplier you’ve met during the event. Choosing the right venue and suppliers is vital in having a beautiful and well-planned wedding. Sometimes it is simply not convenient for someone to make such important decisions straight away, so this allows you to take all the literature and digest it over a cup of tea (or maybe even champagne?). You then have the chance to browse wedding supplier websites and enquire about further details or obtain a quote in the comfort of your own home. BOOK DURING THE WEDDING OPEN DAY AND RECEIVE AN EXTRA TWO BEDROOMS & CANAPES FOR FREE. THIS OFFER IS WORTH MORE THAN £350!!!
