How to Plan Your Dream Wedding

The first step to planning your perfect wedding is creating a clear vision of your day. Begin with the essentials, the size of your guest list, your preferred season or date, and a rough budget. These key decisions will help you narrow down your choices and provide a solid foundation for everything else. At The Park Hotel, our wedding coordinators can help you work through those early ideas and turn them into a well-structured plan that feels personal to you.

Weddings today are all about personality and style. Couples are embracing vibrant colour palettes, unique décor themes, and entertainment that keeps guests engaged throughout the day. Whether you’re dreaming of a timeless and elegant celebration or a bold and modern event, The Park Hotel can help you incorporate current trends while still keeping your day uniquely yours.

It’s no secret that food is always one of the biggest highlights of any wedding day. At The Park Hotel, we’re proud to offer a wide range of delicious dining options to suit every couple’s taste. From traditional favourites served as part of a classic wedding breakfast to trendy alternatives like vintage afternoon teas and beautifully presented grazing boards, your guests will be talking about the food long after the big day. Whatever your choice, our talented chefs use the finest ingredients to make sure every bite is memorable.

Selecting the right venue is one of the most important decisions you’ll make, and at The Park Hotel, you’ll find plenty of choice. With a range of stylish and flexible function rooms, we can host everything from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations. Surrounded by landscaped gardens and just a short walk from Barnstaple town centre, our hotel provides a picturesque backdrop for photographs and a convenient location for your guests.

Every couple wants their wedding to feel personal and unforgettable. Adding unique touches such as personalised décor or entertainment that reflects your personalities is a great way to make your day stand out. At The Park Hotel, we love helping couples bring their vision to life, whether it’s creating a themed reception, designing a bespoke menu, or arranging special details that guests will remember forever.

Planning a wedding can seem daunting, but with the right experts by your side, it becomes a joyful journey. Our dedicated wedding coordinators at The Park Hotel have years of experience in making dreams a reality. From recommending trusted local suppliers to managing the finer details on the day itself, we’ll ensure everything runs seamlessly so you can focus on what matters most.
