Your Kent Wedding - Jan/Feb 2020 (Issue 88)

INN ON THE LAKE 01474 823 333 fcdhotels.co.uk The Inn on the Lake sits on the edge of 12 acres of woodland. The gardens are built around three natural lakes, providing stunning backdrops for your all-important photos. The floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall windows flood the large wedding room with natural light and offer stunning panoramic views over the lakes and gardens. The lakes are the focal point for weddings here, from nuptials at the water’s edge and beautiful photo opportunities on the jetty through to barbecues on the lakeside terrace. You could even wake up to coffee on your bedroom terrace looking out at this gorgeous scenery. When you book your wedding at Inn on the Lake, you’ll receive two complimentary tickets to a tribute event, where you can sample the food and the DJ. You can also enjoy a complimentary stay in the spa suite, where the bride also gets an inclusive wedding evening stay with her bridesmaids. We love… the wealth of photo opportunities available here, from the beautiful natural lakes, to the woodland and gardens. You can even capture a snapshot with the friendly resident ducks if you’re lucky! We love… the location of this venue, which is in close proximity to Hever Castle, Chartwell, Chiddingstone Castle and Penshurst Place, with Royal Tunbridge Wells and Knole Park only a short drive away. Why not extend your stay post-wedding and enjoy a mini-moon here? rebeccadouglas.co.uk rebeccadouglas.co.uk SPACE TO CELEBRATE ❤ The Lakeside Gazebo is set on the edge of the largest lake (200 ceremony guests, with an extra 50 standing). ❤ The Fountain Suite is an intimate room with soft drapes, chandeliers and natural wood floor (100 ceremony guests, with an extra 30 standing). ❤ The Lakeside Suite an ideal space for a larger wedding with panoramic lake views and exclusive access to the Lakeside Terrace (250 ceremony, 250 dining, 300 evening guests).
