Hi everyone, just got engaged on Friday so I am quite new to this (i am also ridiculously, stupidly excited!!). Is anyone else planning a wedding around Nottingham? Just wondering if there were any local suggestions for anything at all. We haven't even really started looking at venues yet, although would like more of a country setting than a town one with plenty of things to do outdoors... would also stretch to derbyshire / leicestershire (I think Belvoir Castle looks really nice).

Any suggestions or advice on what I am supposed to be doing at this stage would be really appreciated (we are planning for June 2010).

I don't know how I am going to concentrate on work today, I am so so happy!! ?

Love Lucy xxxxxxxxxxx

? hello & welcome to hitched

not from nottingham but just wanted to say hello. don't expect to do any work today, nor for the next 18 months, especially since you have joined hitched!

first thing to do is sort out your budget as it will determine how many people you invite, the types of venue you look at etc.

Colwick Hall is a super venue, so is the much more reasonably priced Bestwood Lodge

I went to a wedding at Bestwood lodge about 5 years ago, it was a brilliant venue. Apparently they are very well priced still, but you still get the wow factor of such a beautiful venue.

It may be a bit early, but my best friend is a wedding make up artists in Nottingham (in fact it was her wedding I went to!). her website is:

Congrats on getting engaged!

Hi everyone - thanks so much for all your help. Have just phoned Bestwood Lodge and booked an appointment to go and visit - it looks lovely and is in my price range! so thanks for that.

I am also looking at Risley Hall - don't know if anyone has been to a wedding there?

Will definitely be in need of a photographer and make up artist so will be in contact nearer the time ?

I think I am falling in love with this website....

Hi and welcome ?

Also from Nottingham, but quite nearby in Lincolnshire, so thought I'd say hello!

If i could access this site at work, I would get absolutely nothing done................?

The trouble is, I have unlimited internet access at work.

Bye bye facebook, in fact, bye bye life - hello hitched.

It's 18 months away and I am already obsessed!!
