Coco Collection… A Road Trip

Written by Emma Hla
This is fast becoming one of my favourite moments of the week…

Not only because it’s the day I get to have an indulgently lazy morning with the boy eating naughty croissants and sipping on steaming coffee, but it’s also the day I get to share with you our equally delicious collection of Coco Wedding Venues…

And bouy (that pun is a hint) will this lot have you squealing with delight! Our road trip today takes us to the country, the beach and then the city…

Come on folks…

the rectory

I would quite like to move into The Rectory – this gorgeous country house is right up my style street!

The Rectory is a beautiful retreat set in 3 acres of grounds and situated in the beautiful Cotswold triangle of Tetbury, Malmesbury and Cirencester.

This is relaxed country living done properly and the quintessentially English grounds are the perfect backdrop to a lavish cocktail hour or a spot of afternoon croquet. Oh, and this place is also a foodies’ heaven as just 100 yards across the road is The Rectory’s sister business – The Potting Shed – a truly delicious treat!

This wedding venue is hot property and has been featured on the Brides hot 100 wedding venues and twice on Rock My Wedding, and most recently Style Me Pretty!

You can see why can’t you lovelies…

There is a dedicated Wedding Planner at your service and with the option of having this gorgeous country pile all to yourself you can start planning one hell of a party!

I think this is the perfect Modern Vintage wedding venue.

Now… about me moving in…?

lusty glaze

How epic is this wedding venue’s name…? The answer is very, very epic indeed.

This venue also had a pretty good way with words so I’m actually going to hand over to the lovely Nicola for the Lusty Glaze account…

Lusty Glaze Beach is a truly stunning and unique venue. Here you will find a beautiful private cove surrounded by dramatic cliffs overlooking the best sunsets in the UK. Located on Cornwall’s North coast, on the edge of Newquay, this little gem of a location is the perfect setting for your laid back wedding day…

Your ceremony will take place on the decking overlooking the beach with waves crashing onto the shore. You and your guests can enjoy your own exclusive beach area, either just a section or the whole cove and enjoy celebratory drinks with sand beneath your feet. Your reception commences in the beachside marquee where you can be treated to a delectable barbeque, paella or your favourite meal cooked to perfection by our chefs from our fully licensed Bar and Restaurant. As the sun sets over the ocean, the celebrations continue into the night as you and your guests enjoy the incredible ambience that Lusty Glaze has to offer…

Packages are available to suit every type of wedding, from an intimate affair with just the two of you to a two hundred guest private beach party and everything in between. Lusty Glaze truly is a venue that will provide you with your perfect beach wedding, exactly as you have imagined it. Sand, sea, surf and sunsets all shared with your new spouse and the smiling faces of your favourite family and friends…”

Yep, told you they had a way with words…

Don’t you just want to whisk yourself off there right now! Even in this autumnal squall of a November!

But whilst Lusty Glaze battens down its hatches for the winter months the team are already super excited for the next season which promises to be even better than the amazing year they’ve already had! 

There are but a few dates left for 2014 so act quickly folks if you fancy being a Coastal Cool Bride and Groom…
