The Alverton Real Weddings: Merryn and Adam Johns

We love featuring real weddings at The Alverton. Here, we catch up with Merryn and Adam Johns as they share the highlights of their beautiful wedding day in The Great Hall.

Why did you choose The Alverton as your venue?

The Alverton always stood out to us, as we knew we wanted our wedding to be as easy and simple as possible and not to take up our lives with lots of heavy planning. The Alverton’s stunning image and spectacular Great Hall does it all for you! Even in the rain, we knew our pictures would still be amazing inside, which was great peace of mind.

What was the most special part of your wedding day?

Definitely the wedding breakfast. Once the nerves had gone, we could just relax and eat with our friends and family in the gorgeous Great Hall.

Any advice for future brides planning their big day?

Make sure to take it all in. Take a moment with your partner to appreciate all your loved ones in one place together. Have a look around and see who’s interacting with who. I found everyone mingling together so special.

Any advice for the grooms?

Don’t leave things until the last minute. It’s nice to relax the day before.

If you could do it all over again, what would you do differently?

It truly was the best day of our lives. I really don’t think there’s anything we wish we did differently. 

Finally, what three words would you use to describe a wedding at The Alverton?

Effortless. Stunning. Memorable.
