You may like to offer your guests a celebratory drink after your ceremony or on arrival. These can be served from our rustic drinks cart. Canapés are the ideal start to your guests day and a bespoke selection can be served along with the drinks. We can advise you on popular “crowd pleasers” or we can work with your suggestions.

Surely the most important bit is what to eat! Whether you would like a formal dining experience, or a more relaxed meal – your bespoke menu will be created to suit you. Utilising local produce is our speciality, and the stars of any of our dishes would always be our home grown beef, lamb, and game. We also use vegetables/salads from our kitchen garden when we can & regularly forage for local treasures to make our unique dishes. Our highly talented team of chefs create amazing dishes and can tailor them to suit your big day. Over 30% of our wedding enquiries are couples who have actually been wedding guests here, and another 30% are from couples who have dined here in the Inn or Restaurant; a true testament not only to the venue, but the amazing food our team create.
Alternative wedding breakfast ideas are available should you prefer not to have a formal meal. Afternoon teas have been popular, as are hog roast wedding breakfasts. We welcome your ideas; we will advise on suitability and accommodate where possible.

! “Another plus for us is that unlike many wedding venues we are able to go back to the Ferry House Inn and have lunch or dinner and reminisce about our day. We went back shortly after our honeymoon, the staff were yet again brilliant and eager to hear how our honeymoon went and how we were enjoying married life� Danielle & Chris Woolley
“We got married here 2 years ago, we visited for a meal to celebrate and were so impressed. Our table had been decorated with lights, candles, roses, and we even had a card from the staff. It was wonderful, we ate, laughed, danced and felt very special� Jade & Tom Lott
