About

I love to meet people, especially those who are embarking on their 'formal' lives together and have chosen Faversham House to celebrate this. It's really great to be involved in the planning and being able to use my experience to offer them solutions to make the event fun and also fulfil their dreams. It's such a privilege to meet the families and friends and be a part of their day. My history includes years of customer service training and hospitality, and even a few years of standup comedy.

Faversham is a BEAUTIFUL venue and we loved it from the start. It was a great place to stay for the whole wedding weekend. So many details were included and Nola put the day together beautifully. It was a great place to have a stress free wedding.

The minute I discovered this beautiful venue online, I knew it was the place I wanted to use for our wedding venue. Our original idea was to have a country themed wedding and being from Perth, we were quite restricted, as not many places in Perth cater for guests of up to 130. I was thrilled when we discovered that Faversham House in York was capable of hosting a wedding for this amount of guests, and even better - they had accommodation for our guests too! All the rooms are beautifully and tastefully decorated, to give that country charm feel and make you feel so relaxed. The service and professionalism is simply outstanding - nothing went wrong throughout the organising process and if there was ever an issue, it would be solved before we even had a chance to worry about it! The owners of Faversham House (Nola & Richard Bliss) are a lovely couple who have a wealth of experience in the industry and really know what it takes to provide exceptional service. Thanks to Nola & Richard and of course the great Faversham House, you really turned our country wedding dream into reality!

What weather contingency (backup) plans do venues have for outdoor spaces?

Faversham House

Hi You are quite right to raise this question, because as lovely as your outdoor venue is, we cannot, unfortunately, control the weather. Many B&Gs choose Faversham House for the gorgeous house backdrop that we offer for weddings on our terrace lawn. We advise to budget for a marquee - our supplier has a lovely clear one that can accommodate fairy lights and STILL have the house visible - and if they don't need it, well there's that money now to add to the honeymoon or house fund. It's much better to plan for worst case scenario and not have to stress. Our lovely supplier lets us confirm up to 10 days out, so we get the best opportunity to save costs.

If my fiance and I can't agree on wedding venue, what should we do?

Should we have our ceremony at one and reception at the other? Should one of us compromise? I'm not sure what to do

Faversham House

A difficult one but not something to get upset about. Maybe both let go of your initial positions, and agree to start from scratch with a joint dream board. As someone else suggested here, start with the essentials and plan outwards from that. You might just find you end up with something completely different than what you, as an individuals started with, but you will end up with something that you both, as a couple, have built together.

How much nicer will it be to know that no one has 'given in' (and possible may be resentful later), but you have begun your journey together as you intend to go on, caring for and thinking of, your soul mate.

Is there a list of ceremony only venues?

Faversham House

With so many lovely places on Easy Weddings, why not shortlist those ones that look really lovely to you, and phone them to ask. I would think that some would be happy to offer this, maybe not on a Saturday, but during a weekday if this suited you.
