Hiya!
Long time lurker and first time poster here 
We have our wedding planned and booked (no deposits have been booked except for with the registry office which is £35) and i'm just getting a litttttle stressed and confused!
We are getting married September 2016, in Wiltshire. There are only 15 guests including us.
We are having our ceremony at Salisbury registry office, staying the night before and after the ceremony in Castle Combe. We'll be having our dinner in Castle Combe.
As we are on a tight budget, we cut our guestlist down massively (my family is 160 alone!) and we have got a photographer lined up for £460 for 4 hours.
I'm trying to work out how this is going to work though!!
We were planning on having a pre-meet, but it is an hour and a half between Castle Combe and Salisbury, which means I would have to travel there by myself! It was a great idea in theory, but now I am confused! Also sudden realisation today that we were going to pay upwards of £360 for a minibus to transport everyone, we might aswell have the ceremony somewhere licenced in Chippenham for example and then pay the registrar fees. But, I am struggling to find anywhere that wants to host a small party!
If it came down to it, we could keep the ceremony venue and change the dinner, but Castle Combe is very significant to us and I would rather not change it. I would be happy to go to Chippenham registry office, however my fiance is SO PICKY and the main reason we chose Salisbury is because it is a beautiful building.
We're trying to find new places but have ran out of steam and can't find anywhere. This is more of a mad ramble than anything, but any advice/venue ideas/timeline planning would be really great
Thank youuuu!
