Welcome
Welcome to our wedding website. If you have found this page, chances are, you have received an invitation to our special day. This website is full of useful information about accommodation, how to get there and what to expect on the day. We hope you can join us!
We'll update this webpage when we have more information, including the order of service.
RSVP and Wedding Gifts
We would appreciate an RSVP by the 20th March 2017, so we can finalize our plans. It would also be helpful if you could tell us who will be attending and if anyone has any dietary requirements.
In 2018, we would like to take Emi on a proper summer holiday! And so, without being cheeky, we are not asking for any wedding gifts but a monetary donation to the cause.
Thanks
Dawn & Chris XXX
The Venue
So why Shottle Hall? After looking at several venues in Cheshire, it became clear from an early stage that Cheshire was out of our budget, so we jumped across the border into Derbyshire! Shottle Hall can be found just off the main Ashbourne to Belper road (A517), just over an hours’ drive from Crewe and 30 minutes from Derby. We have the hall to ourselves, all day and all night, making it the perfect venue for the kids to run around in complete safety.
For Sat Nav users, the postcode of Shottle Hall is DE56 2EB.
Directions from Ashbourne and the West
From Ashbourne take the A517 towards Belper. After approx. 8 miles, turn left at the traffic lights (The Railway Inn is on the corner) onto the B5023 towards Wirksworth. After approx. Half a mile, turn right onto White Lane. Shottle Hall is about 80 yards down this lane, on the left.
Directions from Belper and the East
From Belper, take the A6 out of the town. At Belper North Mill traffic lights, turn left onto the A517 towards Ashbourne. After approx. 3 miles, turn right at the traffic lights (The Railway Inn is on the corner) onto the B5023 towards Wirksworth. After approx. Half a mile, turn right onto White Lane. Shottle Hall is about 80 yards down this lane, on the left.
The Reception and DISCO
From 7.30PM, the hall will be turned into a DISCO! We’ve hired a great DJ and would love you to get involved in what he plays on the night. We’d love you to choose 2 songs to be played and so we make sure the DJ has them, you can click the link below to request them before the day. Simply tell us by clicking the link below, enter the date and the password 5d1fc
