We put the all-important questions to our experts... This time we quizzed Harriet from Hendall Manor Barns.
Q How can we ensure the end of our wedding day is fitting and memorable?
Harriet says: It’s so important that your big day finishes on a high. After all, at the end of a long and joyous day, the culmination of months of planning, why wouldn’t you want your guests to remember it? Once celebrations have drawn to a close, you can achieve this with nothing less than a beautiful and memorable send-off. Whether you’re staying in newlyweds accommodation at your venue or heading off elsewhere, delegate a trusted member of your bridal party or venue team the responsibility of gathering together your nearest and dearest, each with a sparkler in hand to send you both off through a tunnel of sparklers, wishing you well on your journey into married life. A perfect, well-rounded finish to the day’s proceedings.
