About this event
Brides-to-be can discover the hotel’s romance when the historic venue will be dressed for a wedding on Sunday 28th April and 8th September.
Surrounded by open countryside in the heart of Lavenham, the picture perfect 15th century hotel is a magical venue for dream weddings large and small all year around. It’s also licensed for civil ceremonies throughout the building.
For smaller more intimate weddings, The Swan has three elegant private rooms catering from four to 40 guests. Each room will be set up with displays from wedding suppliers ranging from florists to photographers and make-up artists as well as wedding dress and cake specialists. The McCallum room will also be dressed for a wedding breakfast while the Woolhall will be set up for a ceremony.
Couples planning larger, more lavish affairs for up to 100 friends and family can also discover more about The Swan’s exclusive wedding package when the entire hotel is reserved just for their party.
Six bedrooms and suites will be set aside to demonstrate the variety and high calibre of rooms on offer at the hotel and Weavers’ House Spa will be open to view where brides and their guests can enjoy the luxurious facilities and book a relaxing treatment before or after the big day.
Both wedding open days will take place between 11.30am and 3.30pm. Be welcomed with a glass of sparkling Prosecco and relax in the bar or lounge after viewing the facilities with a sample selection of canapés specially prepared by the head chef and is team.
The Swan’s wedding planners will be on hand throughout the day to discuss your plans and provide a goodie bag to take home with leaflets from suppliers, a sweet treat and information about the wedding packages.
