We have many hats on here at Smiths Hotel – and helping couples plan their Big Day is one – meet some of our fantastic wedding team!
These lovely ladies receive all sorts of queries – and a popular one is the waiting list for getting married at Gretna Green Famous Blacksmith Shop or Smiths Hotel!
Well….There isn’t one! Yay (cue happy dance now)! But do let us expand on what we mean just a wee bit…..
Popular dates (such as Valentine’s Day or New Year’s Eve) DO get booked out very very quickly here at Gretna Green Famous Blacksmith Shop and Smiths Hotel ……in fact, we’ve already had enquiries for dates like these arrive for 2017!
If your heart IS set on getting married on one of these iconic days, booking quite far in advance may be necessary….. and is definitely a good idea! Not to worry though…….often, there will be space especially if you’re willing to make a few compromises (for example, changing to earlier or later in the day, having a smaller reception). Don’t be put off – contact our wedding team here at Gretna Green even if you think you’ve left it too late!
Found the perfect package or venue but not attached to a specific date? Consider a weekday wedding! Especially in shoulder months (that’s usually up to about the beginning of June and after mid-September), these weekdays can be quite quiet……giving you heaps of choice over the time of day! Not to mention that mid-week weddings are occasionally on offer or free from weekend supplements! (And who doesn’t love a bargain!)
Whether you’re set on a particular date or are leaning more to getting married at Gretna Green, don’t hesitate to ask about your ‘wish list’ dates …. More times than not, you will be able to have your cake and eat it too……..or get both your dream wedding venue AND date.
