All the latest from around Surrey NEWS Nearlywed MOMENTS TO REMEMBER Originally a Victorian country manor house, Stanhill Court Hotel is nestled within 35 acres of glorious gardens and woodland and is now a quintessentially English hotel that’s perfect for weddings. The family-run business is inviting newlyweds to plant a tree in the venue’s beautiful grounds. Sam Mellish, the events coordinator, tells us more: “The tree is a great way to honour your wedding day with a plaque made especially for you. On top of contributing to the environment, couples are planting something that will blossom as their love does, and they can come back to visit so they know they will always be a part of the hotel. We strive to help our wedding guests create life-long memories, so as a special gift from us, when you book one of our wedding packages, we will offer a complimentary onenight stay including breakfast on the bride and groom’s first wedding anniversary.” Check out www.stanhillcourthotel.co.uk for more information.
