Appley Manor holds its first Wedding Fayre at Appley Manor Hotel in Ryde on Sunday 22 November, after licensing the venue for weddings. You can meet local suppliers and look around the venue itself. Bring your partner, your family or whoever is helping you plan, and use the day to ask questions about the setting as well as the suppliers. It suits couples who have just got engaged and those putting the final touches to their plans.
Appley Manor calls it a day of wedding inspiration. On the list: wedding styling, local photographers, flowers, cakes and entertainment. If parts of the day are already booked, bring a short list of what is still undecided, so you spend your time with the right people. If you are earlier in the planning, it is a way to see the venue and several suppliers in one visit, without arranging separate appointments.
The fayre runs from 11am to 3pm at Appley Manor on Appley Road, Ryde, PO33 1PH. There is a registration form, and no admission price is listed, so confirm both before you go. If there is a particular room or part of the venue you need to see, ask the hotel about viewing. Other fayres and local gatherings are in the community events.
Organised by Appley Manor and Catherine May
