Local wedding suppliers gather at luxury The Compleat Angler hotel for grand wedding fair

Four-star The Compleat Angler hotel in Marlow is set to open its doors to some of the area's most popular wedding suppliers for a special event to be held on Sunday 21st September. The grand showcase is designed to help couples on their way to saying 'I do' as they search for inspiration for their big day.

They are invited to attend the open day, where they will be able to speak with local florists, caterers and musicians, as well as tour the opulent suites and stunning wedding spaces. The romantic wedding venue, which hosts celebrations almost every weekend as well as during the week, will also open its doors on Sunday 26 October for an additional wedding fair where couples can explore the beautifully styled wedding setup, meet the team behind the day, and enjoy a glass of fizz.

Maddison Martin, events and conference co-ordinator at The Compleat Angler said: "It is the finer details which really bring a wedding to life and at The Compleat Angler we are blessed to have so many wonderful suppliers right on our doorstep. Planning a wedding can be a tall task, and couples can often feel overwhelmed by everything on the to do list. By bringing so many wedding experts and suppliers into one room we hope to inspire couples and open their eyes to all the different touches you can bring to the celebration."

Touching on recent trends which she has seen in the wedding industry, Maddison added: "We're noticing a growing trend of couples planning their weddings on shorter timelines, often booking intimate celebrations just a few months before the big day. Long-term planning, once common two to three years in advance, has become increasingly rare. Fortunately, at The Compleat Angler our dedicated wedding team works hand in hand with couples and suppliers to bring every vision to life – no matter the timeframe."

Set in a tranquil setting next to the River Thames, The Compleat Angler Hotel is one of the city's most romantic wedding venues. With its sweeping and picturesque views of Marlow, elegant function suites, and a blend of historic grandeur and modern luxury, it provides the perfect backdrop for any special day. Whether couples dream of an intimate celebration or a lavish reception, the dedicated wedding team will tailor every detail of a wedding day, from bespoke menus crafted with the finest seasonal produce to a decadent afternoon tea for a pre- or post-wedding bite.

The Compleat Angler Hotel's Wedding Fair will take place on the 21st of September and the 26th of October 2025. Both events will take place from midday until 3 pm. To reserve your space, visit https://www.macdonaldhotels.co.uk/compleat-angler/venue/weddings
