Wedding Venue

The wedding will be held at the Coppleridge, Motcombe, Dorset, on Saturday 10th June 2006. See www.coppleridge.com for more details. That's about 3 miles west of Shaftesbury.

The ceremony will be at 5.00pm, then photos, then a sit down meal around 7.30, and a party afterwards. The Coppleridge has a bar with real ales, kid's playground, lots of parking, and lots of open areas. The actual ceremony is in the converted barn around the coutyard with fountains.

Invites are being sent out right now (3rd March) - sorry about the delay, its been busy.

For accomodation, there are 10 rooms at the Coppleridge itself, which we've block booked. If you're interested, contact Lizzie on lizzieroe@hotmail.co.uk or 07899 797 206. They charge £80 for one night or £100 for 2 nights, and can do a third bed/cot in the room. Just up the road is the Royal Oak (01747 854 888 *not* 8529222 as on their website - I've provisionally booked all their 3 rooms) which has 3 rooms for £50 a double or £35 a single, and Alan and Jacqueline have found a guest house at £25pppn nearby. There are other B&B's nearby, we have a list and I'll put it up here soon.

Large scale:

(Gillingham/Coppleridge is about 30% along and 20% up from the bottom left). So that's straight down the A303 past Stonehenge and off at Shaftesbury. By train its London Waterloo to Gillingham and then a taxi for the last 2 miles. People will be coming down from Leicester, Bristol and London so you may be able to get a lift.
