LET THE FUN BE-GIN The award-winning Hensol Castle has launched a new range of miniature gins that are perfect as wedding favours. Couples wanting something a little more special can opt to have these gin miniatures personalised with their names and the date of their wedding. Distilled in the cellars of the 400-year-old castle, couples have three gins to choose from – Hensol Castle Welsh Dry Gin, Hensol Castle Wild Strawberry & Hibiscus Gin and Hensol Castle Blood Orange Zest Gin. Stephanie Metson, the marketing manager, said: “These personalised wedding favours are ideal, as they give guests a little tipple to toast the happy couple as well as a lovely keepsake bottle to take home as a momento of the special day. Since we launched them at the end of July, the orders have been flying in. Hensol Castle offers couples the full package. Aside from the fact that the castle can be hired exclusively with the whole party celebrating on-site, it also provides a picturesque backdrop for photographs with its original features, serpentine lake and 650 acres of parkland. When you combine this with the fact that the wedding party can visit the distillery and even distill their own bespoke bottle of gin, or that the hen or stag party can enjoy a cocktail making masterclass before the big day, then you can see how it creates the perfect package for any couple saying their vows.” To find out more, visit www.hensolcastle.com A NIGHT TO REMEMBER Boom Battle Bar Cardiff has announced it will be introducing Private Karaoke Pods to its roster of immersive games and activities that already includes crazy golf, axe throwing and shuffleboard.
