The Summer Wedding Edit

11/8/2023

 
​Summer; the wedding season and it’s all about the destination. Think bold colors and an array of statement pieces, these months are notorious for being the most popular dates to get booked quickly by wedding couples.

​The destination wedding is a trend that has continued to grow in recent years; a way to replicate the overseas experience without the hassle of traveling. Throwing caution to the wind and opting for an all out celebration, forgoing the tradition of a regular wedding day. Enhancing the experience with a series of excursions and activities both prior and post wedding day. Although the weather lately has been feeling slightly more autumnal than usual, the coast is on your doorstep and there are historic towns in every direction to be explored; not to mention the wide selection of eateries across the county, making Cornwall the ultimate summer wedding destination and here we look at how Knightor can enhance the overall occasion.

Take the inside out. Knightor has many possibilities, including the option to get married and dine outside, allowing you to create an al fresco wedding experience like no other. Think light and fresh florals alongside pops of colour, elevating the look using hints of seasonal inspiration and bringing your personality to life. With a series of outdoor spaces available to choose from, guests will naturally find themselves drawn to the courtyard and arbour, two spaces that provide picturesque backdrops to forge long-lasting memories.

Following the ceremony, entice guests to the bar with a Cornish Spritz, our signature serve that is dangerously easy to drink - made with our award-winning Rose Vermouth, topped with soda then garnished with rosemary and an orange wheel. With a team of mixologists on hand, for the full cocktail experience, add our cocktail bar excursion to your day and keep your guests hydrating on those warm summer days.

Wedding food is an essential part of the day and we couldn't understand the importance more. With this in mind, a series of menus have been carefully curated to enhance the experience, using a mixture of homegrown and locally sourced produce. Each can be served all year round if required, although what captures the essence of an English summer more than a barbeque? This can be cooked and served in front of your guests truly makes for a mouthwatering moment; grilled dishes and seasonal salads will keep guests well-fed and satisfied. ​
