Surrey is the perfect place for a beautiful, modern and romantic wedding. It can provide everything from the small exclusive, intimate venue up to the big stylish weddings which are much larger and grander.

Surrey hotels and country houses are all well connected with major rail and road routes into London and the South East of England. Heathrow and Gatwick airports are very close and major roads such as the A3, M3 and the M25 get your guests to the venue quickly and efficiently. Rail travellers are equally well supported due to the large number of commuters living in Surrey but working in Central London. Trains travel regularly into London Bridge and Waterloo stations.

The general quality of service in all of the wedding venues in Surrey is extremely high, with excellent cuisine, exemplary service and amazing attention to even the smallest detail. Brides (and grooms) will be spoilt for choice and their wedding guests will be impressed.

In order to see everything that Surrey has to offer you will need to visit the venue and talk to the staff, but review your budget first as there is a wide price variation between the different options. Be clear on the number of guests that will be attending and the style of catering that you will require. The clearer you can be in your list of requirements the easier it will be to make your choice.

Photography is important to every bride and Surrey provides some stunning locations for the perfect wedding photograph. Make sure that your wedding photographer is familiar with the venue that you choose so that they are able to get the most out of the location.

Spas are becoming increasingly common at the larger wedding venues in Surrey and are very popular with the brides as a place to relax in the hectic build up to the wedding, remember to ask about spa facilities when making your booking.

Our Christmas tree, kindly donated by Charlie Frost in Newdigate, is happily planted on the island outside the shop, and Ant Hamilton has spent several hours of his precious time installing Christmas lights on the tree and on the fascia, as well as inside the shop. Heather Simister has done a wonderful job decorating the shop window – it looks stunning.
Inside the shop is a hive of activity. Masses of Christmas stock is in store now – look out for the local hand-made chocolates, beautiful Christmas bouquets to order, and a great range of locally produced jams, chutneys, mincemeat, preserves, oils, cakes etc etc. Nearer to the time we shall have home-made mince pies as well.

WE ARE TAKING ORDERS FOR FLOWERS, FRESH VEGETABLES AND BREADS. THESE CAN BE COLLECTED CHRISTMAS EVE, OR EARLIER BY ARRANGEMENT.

Hoards of customers are relying on the shop for their basics at the moment, as the roads in and out of Strood Green are so treacherous. Our bake-off oven is going like the clappers and we have ordered substantial quantities of vegetables for the weekend ahead, with more snow forecast. If the delivery vans and lorries can get through, we’ll have enough supplies for everybody!

This weekend is the first anniversary of the opening of The Shop at Strood Green. We can’t believe it! It has been such a busy year and we have all learned so much from it. The shop goes from strength to strength and now receives over 2000 visits a week from its customers. It is always buzzing. In the shop this weekend are complimentary shopping bags, balloons, chocolates, and our very own birthday cake!
Also this weekend we are proud to be featured in The Times – in the Weekend section we have featured as part of a walk in Surrey (as providing a good stopping point for afternoon tea!).
Many many thanks to all our loyal customers and volunteers for the support they have given the shop over the last twelve months.

What would a birthday be without a cake! Jo Songhurst used one of her many and various talents to decorate a very large cake this morning with our logo. As usual on a Saturday the shop was heaving with customers, but we managed to persuade Christine and Scarlet to leave the till and light the candle. Lots of customers were happy to have their photo taken too!
