The Bride and Bridegroom often decide to descend the grand staircase into the Great Hall, with its superb oak panelling and ornate plaster ceiling that is embellished with the coats of arms of the forbears of the Hope family. This room makes an ideal place to assemble the guests for a Civil Wedding Ceremony, to meet the Bride, Groom and close relations in the reception line, or to have drinks before the Wedding Breakfast. Doors lead through from the hall directly into the Double Drawing Room which will have been beautifully arranged with tables for up to 10. The colours of the table linen, table and other decorations will all have been chosen by you.
   
 
For larger wedding receptions there might be a marquee on the terrace with access through a door from the Double Drawing Room. When the Wedding Breakfast and speeches are over, the Great Hall may be used for dancing, where a special dance floor and Disco may have been arranged. The Red Dining Room is sometimes used as a sitting area for the more elderly guests who may appreciate a quieter atmosphere. At the end of the fairy-tale wedding, if the Court has been booked for overnight accommodation, some relations, special friends and sometimes the Bride and Groom, will be able to retire to one of the large, beautifully furnished bedrooms with stunning views of the Wye valley.
