Your Wedding Day

ARRIVAL On arrival at the hotel you will be greeted on the red carpet by your host who will offer you a complimentary glass of champagne and then your guests will be welcomed and arrival drinks will be served.

Once the Bride and Groom have had time to relax and talk to their guests, the Wedding Breakfast will be announced by our professional Toastmaster.

A receiving line is not a necessity.

However, if you wish to have a formal receiving line, this will be carried out so you can meet your guests individually prior to being seated.

When all guests are seated, the Bride and Groom will be announced into the room by your master of ceremonies to welcoming applause of your guests. Your Wedding Breakfast will then be served.

Celebrating Your Marriage TOAST AND SPEECHES It is customary for the Best Man to call upon the father of the Bride or a close family friend to propose a toast to the future happiness of the Bride and Groom.

The Groom will then thank the father or close family friend for the previous toast. The Groom should then follow this by thanking the Bride’s parents for their daughter’s hand in marriage, the guest for attending the wedding and for their wedding presents. The Groom should round off his speech by proposing a toast to the Bridesmaids. The Best Mann responds on behalf of the Bridesmaids and follow this with a few witty anecdotes.

During the speeches gifts and flowers may be given to family and friends that have helped organise the day.

CUTTING THE CAKE After the main course has been cleared, the traditional cutting of cake by the Bride and Groom will take place, and the cake will then be taken away to be cut up and served prior to your speeches.

EVENING RECEPTION Sometimes numbers are limited at the Wedding Breakfast, and therefore the Bride and Groom like to extend their wedding day celebrations through to the evening. This is usually a more informal occasion when other friends can be invited and they can enjoy an evening of music, dancing and great food.

Civil Marriage Ceremonies Nowadays some couples choose to have a Civil Ceremony rather than a religious one, for a variety of personal reasons, a civil ceremony is sometimes the only option a couple may have.

Here at The Golf Hotel we are able to carry out Civil Marriage Ceremonies in a number of our suites.

The arrangements and content of the marriage ceremony must meet with the prior approval of the Superintendent Registrar of the District, Holmeleigh, Foundry Street, Horncastle, LN9 6AQ, telephone 0845 3301400.

Having checked the availability of the suite of your choice with our Wedding Co-ordinator you will need to contact the local Registrar’s Office to arrange the Civil Ceremony.

The marriage must be solemnised in the premises, or within our grounds or marquee, and in the rooms approved for the licence. Any reading, music or performance which forms part of a ceremony of marriage must be secular in nature. You will require two witnesses for the Civil Ceremony.

Any fees charged by the Registrar’s Office are separate to those charged by the hotel for the Civil Ceremony, please contact the Registrar’s Office for details of their charges.

If you wish to take a video or photographs on the day you will need to discuss this with the Registrar prior to the Civil Ceremony.

On the day it will be necessary for the Bride and Groom to meet with the Registrar prior to the Civil Ceremony to confirm all the details on the notice of marriage.
