In addition to the ideal wedding venue, we also offer marriage preparation, wedding planning and advice and post-wedding care - all aimed at helping you build a strong, lasting and satisfying marriage.
We are able to do weddings on Sundays, any time after 12 pm, and we are happy for you to provide your own minister/pastor to officiate.
