Special mention... HOLIDAY INN DOVER A modern four-star hotel on the ground floor, Holiday Inn Dover is set among four acres of gardens with a grand marquee and gazebo; capable of holding up to 400 guests. There’s on-site parking and special accommodation rates for wedding guests – meaning your loved ones don’t have to rush off at the end of the celebration. Being a ground floor-only building offers accessibility to all, making for a stress-free wedding day. The venue also sits back on a quiet suburban street, adding to your private event, with no risk of disturbance from neighbouring properties or passersby. Ceremonies can take place in the garden gazebo, subject to weather, the grand marquee or the octagon suite (for those with 50 or less guests). In the same micro-wedding vein, they have the Harbour Suite – fit for a small intimate ceremony. The four acres of gardens and the grand marquee are the two features that really stand out when visiting, and the two gazebos offer fantastic photo opportunities. When booking your big day celebration with Holiday Inn Dover, you will also be privy to its events team, who will look after you on the build-up to your special day. You can also benefit from a free menu tasting and, depending on the size of your wedding, free accommodation on your wedding night.
