Hi I'm new to this site and I'm hoping someone on here can help me.
After being engaged for 4 years, my fiance and I have just been told we're getting a bit of money in a couple of months so we've decided, finally, that we can get married next year.
It's not a lot of money so it's not going to be a lavish wedding but I know what I want - the problem is I don't know if it will be possible.
I want to find a venue around London or the Home Counties (or as far north as Cambridgeshire) where we can do as much of it ourselves as possible.
It doesn't have to have a licence as happy to go to a registry office first.
We have a friend who's a caterer who will do a buffet for us (but would look at venues that offer buffets as don't want a formal sit down meal). We also want to organise the drinks ourselves (but again would look at places that have a manned bar).
Ideally I'd like outdoor space but with the british weather I know that might be asking too much!
Can anyone help? Am I setting myself up for disappointment?
Thanks very much
