Your East Anglian Wedding - December/January 2023/2024 (Issue 64)

CLEY WINDMILL, NR25 7RP 01263 740 209 | www.cleywindmill.co.uk Cley Windmill is a beautiful wedding venue situated on the North Norfolk coast that’s considered a local landmark. Instead of a traditional garden, the venue is surrounded by reeds and marshland with the sea in the distance, creating an idyllic setting for those in search of an original big-day backdrop. You can take over the whole windmill for your big day, with space for up to 22 people across 10 bedrooms. Celebrate in style Hold your ceremony in the round-beamed Dining Room, which is full of character, or in one of the many outdoor spaces, including the decked area among the reeds. Enjoy a cosy reception in the windmill or dance the night away in the marquee in the garden. We love... The gallery at the top of the tower provides the ultimate photo opportunity, with the windmill sails as the backdrop. THE SWAN HOTEL & SPA, LAVENHAM, CO10 9QA 01787 247 477 | www.theswanatlavenham.co.uk The Swan Hotel & Spa stands proudly in the centre of the historic town of Lavenham. Named one of the prettiest villages in the UK, there are plenty of places to explore and take those all-important photographs. Dating back to the 15th century, the hotel is steeped in history and boasts stunning features throughout. From private rooms and a gallery restaurant to a historic Airmen’s Bar, lounge, and rooms, this venue will transport you back in time and allow you to focus on what truly matters on your wedding day. The Swan Hotel & Spa can help you plan your dream wedding, from small and intimate to exclusive use. With on-site accommodation available, your guests can also stay before and after the wedding, so you can turn your big day into a longer celebration. Celebrate in style The ceremony, wedding breakfast, and reception will all take place in your dedicated private room, either the McCallum, the Suffolk, the Woolhall or the Gallery. Each of the private rooms has 15th-century character and differs in size to best suit your guest list. McCallum is the smallest room, seating up to 20 guests, followed by the Suffolk, which holds up to 30, the Woolhall seats up to 40 loved ones, and the hotel’s Gallery Restaurant can accommodate 100 people. We love... The venue has many standout features, but our favourites are the luxurious spa and the fact that the venue was used in one of the Harry Potter films. www.fullerphotography.co.uk www.christaylorphoto.co.uk www.lottiephotography.com www.lottiephotography.com 28
