Winter Wedding Fair

The Royal Hotel Scarborough is hosting its Winter Wedding Fair on Sunday 6 December, from 11:00. It's a festive-themed day, so the whole thing is set up around the Christmas season rather than a standard wedding fair, which changes the feel of it if you're planning something for the winter months.

The main draw is the range of local suppliers gathered in one place. Instead of spending your weekends driving around to different venues, photographers, florists, and cake makers, you can meet them all in one go. It's a good way to get a sense of who's working in the area and see what they do without having to book separate appointments. If you're still in the early stages of planning, it's a low-pressure way to start pulling a list together.

There are a couple of welcoming touches on the day: bubbly on arrival and a goody bag for every couple. The bubbly is a nice way to settle in, and the goody bag is something to take home and look through later. It's a relaxed setup, so you can wander around at your own pace, chat with the suppliers, and get a feel for the venue itself while you're at it.

Entry is free, and it opens at 11:00 on Sunday 6 December at The Royal Hotel Scarborough.
