Weddings at The Old Lodge - Minchinhampton Common

From 2012 you can have your ceremony at the Old Lodge.

Talk to a member of our team about your special day:

Nick Beardsley 07815 733 683 or

Christophe Coquoin 07971 632 588

If you’d like your wedding day to be really special and reflect your personalities, rather than a selection from a multiple choice menu, give us a call and we’ll make an appointment for you to come and have a look around. If you love what you see, have a chat with our wedding planner and tell us how you’d like your day to be.

Traditional
We will meet you at the gate to our gardens with a glass of bubbly and then circulate amongst your guests with champagne and canapés. Seating your party in the restaurant with panoramic views, a 3 course meal with wine is served, perhaps:

	Marinated smoked duck breast
	Rocket and pear salad with Roquefort dressing
	Smoked salmon with creamed horseradish served on toasted brioche with lamb’s lettuce salad
	Gala melon, parma ham and fresh figs

	Newent free range supreme of chicken, wild mushroom sauce, dauphinoise potatoes and sautéed savoy cabbage with pancetta
	Classic roast British sirloin of 28 day hung beef with Yorkshire pudding, roast root vegetables, roast potatoes and seasonal vegetables
	Pan fried fillet of wild sea bass with capers, crevettes, samphire and sautéed salsify
	Roasted Mediterranean vegetable tart, Taleggio Cheese, rocket salad with red onion and tomato salsa

	Warm chocolate brownie with Chantilly cream and a red berry garnish
	Classic sharp lemon tart with Chantilly cream
	Fresh fruit salad
	Chef's selection of British and French artisan cheese, organic Miller's Damsels biscuits and quince jelly with a freshly baked baguette.

This may be accompanied by some excellent wines from our list, such as the Pinot Grigio or Sauvignon Blanc with the light Sangiovese Italian red or the French Le Croix Merlot.

We can announce the Best Man’s speech and serve a flute of champagne for the toast. Cutting and serving of the cake can be accompanied by tea and coffee.

A break to relax and chat and we will transform the room for the evening party which may include a band or disco of your choosing. The room has its own bar so that your guests can be easily accommodated within the restaurant suite.

A buffet of British beef, maple roast ham, quiche, spiced chicken wings and a range of popular salads, with British and continental cheeses, chutneys and pickles, and baskets of freshly baked breads. We can follow the buffet with an assortment of finger sized portions of puddings including chocolate brownie, lemon tart, profiteroles.

At the end of the day, retire to one of our 6 comfortably decorated double bedrooms.

Contemporary wedding
Choose as much or as little as you’d like from the traditional organised wedding day.
Starting with arrival drinks on the lawn, possibly pink sparkling wine, or Prosecco with a strawberry in the glass, or summer Pimms with all the trimmings. Add to this some contemporary nibbles such as mini fish & chips, smoked salmon nibbles, cocktail sausages with spicy dips.

Wedding Breakfast
Start with platters to share of Manzanilla, Kalamata and Gordal olives, Manchego cheese with Serrano ham, salami ventricella, salami Milano and shaved root vegetables. Another platter of rosemary and garlic studded camembert with freshly baked ciabatta.

Follow with roast duck breast with spring onion potato cake, carrot, cumin and honey puree and red berries and a sea bream with fondant potato, broad beans and saffron beurre blanc.

Return to the sharing idea with pudding where you can have platters of assorted puddings or alternatively a croque-en-bouche (tower of profiteroles) per table for your party to dig into.
Prosecco for the toast.

Evening party with buffet consisting of mini burgers, mini bacon baps, Murgh 65 (southern Indian spiced chicken) and spicy lamb rolls.

Bespoke
The day is yours and we are here to cater for you.

Previous wedding parties have requested steak and chips and jelly and ice cream and evening buffets have included pizzas from our stone ovens at the Britannia or traditional Indian banquets from the Tipputs’ Southern Indian chef.

You may wish to consider a weekday wedding which can be a little easier on the purse and if you have lots of children attending, hire a nanny and maybe a bouncy castle to keep them happily entertained.
