THE BIG WEEKENDER With more and more couples looking to make a weekend of their celebrations (and why not), The Bridge, on Prestbury High Street, has launched a new long weekender package for its nearlyweds. On arrival at the venue the day before the wedding you’ll be greeted by the team and shown to the honeymoon suite, where you can settle in with snacks and some fizz. That evening spend some time with nearest and dearest in the intimate private dining space and enjoy a two course dinner. Each of your special guests will have the chance to raise a toast with half a bottle of wine each. Then it’s off to the boutique rooms for a restful night’s sleep. The morning of, you’ll get ready in the designated glamour room, complete with refreshments. Then, you’ll be saying “I do” safe in the knowledge that the celebrations are only just getting started with the entire weekend ahead. When you’ve partied the night away and wake up refreshed (or with a sore head) the next morning, The Bridge team will have a boozy bottomless brunch ready for you, allowing you to spend time with loved ones one final time before bidding them a fond farewell.

The caterer offers its own recipes and menu developed using only the best produce, along with fresh ingredients and a passion that ensures the team stays ahead of the latest trends in food. From sit-down menus, its renowned tapas wedding breakfast and even evening options, things are done just a little bit differently. This is why they leapt into action on hearing repeated requests from couples for personalised food options inspired by their travels: whether it be places they’ve visited together or somewhere they got engaged. As a result Olive Tree Catering has launched a new range of themed menus from French, Italian and even a family-style Best of British to support the already popular tapas menus.
