The on-site Atelier Restaurant serves international cuisine as well as an impressive list of fine wines. The eatery’s interior features rich tones which are complemented by ornate and simple details, which are designed to create a vibrant ambiance. 50 day guests are welcomed to celebrate newlywed love with a red carpet arrival at Hilton Bath City Hotel at 1pm on Saturday 17th March 2018. Contemporary furnishings provide the backdrop as a three-course meal is served with bubbly for toasts. After all ceremonial festivities are complete, the evening revelry can begin with a further 50 guests arriving and an evening buffet available to tide over any late night cravings.

We would love a wedding that we wouldn’t have to scrape the pennies - that is what we will be doing for our wedding, but I will try and make it the best day I can. But to win this would take a lot of pressure off our bank balance.What a relief that would be.
Sean and I met a couple of years ago and fell in love, after six months we had the lovely surprise of finding out we were expecting a baby.We were renovating our home at the time and also started a family business. Sean proposed on Christmas Day, all we need to do now is get hitched!
We are in the process of planning to get married September 2018.We have been together three years and have known each other and been friends since the age of 14! We are on a pretty tight budget and would love to win the prize to make our day extra special for ourselves, family and friends!
After 11 years together Julie’s working two jobs, studying three different subjects and is an amazing mum to three. Tom works with full time homeless young adults. Spare time and savings are luxuries. Winning would be a dream and we couldn’t ever afford to do this without your help.
We would like to win simply because even though we are both working full time, we just can’t seem to save enough money to get married. 16 years, and three children together, we would love to be able to tie the knot!
We would like to win a wedding as we have a little girl called Anna and it would mean everything to me to join our little family together.

We’ve known each other since school and would love to be married.We have a very poorly son so do not have the time or resources to have our dream wedding and complete our family.
Matt and me have been together for over 10 years now and have a beautiful daughter called Hally.To make our dream come true and make our family complete is to get married. So please vote for us to make that dream a reality.
Together 12.5 years and he finally proposed on my 30th birthday. Our first baby is due August after three years of trying/battling t1 diabetes.We’ve had some tough times, but with little one finally on the way, we feel luck is on our side and thought we’d try our luck.
We met in Bath in early 2016 and it would be a dream to get married in our favourite city. Having three children, a busy life and saving for a house means there is just no spare money around, so this would be amazing for all of us.

1004 I would love to win this wedding as I have been battling cancer for five years and would love to make some great memories, starting with this amazing wedding with my beautiful fiancé after she changed my life and blessed me with two beautiful girls and complete my life

My partner and I have been together nine years this year.We have a daughter aged four and have been engaged for five years.We have wanted to get married for so long this would be a dream – we are saving for a house and a wedding as we are in private rented.This would be the best dream for us both.
We would like to win £10,000 so we could have the wedding we deserve and it be our dream wedding
It’s one of those typical stories.We are a young(ish) couple, just working hard trying to stay happy together! I would like to surprise Marc with this because I don’t think we would be able to afford it otherwise! It would also make the in laws happy!
I have met the man of my dreams and I cannot imagine ever waking up without seeing his face.Through the good or bad he makes my heart melt and I count down the time we leave each other until we get home again! Good things need to happen after so much bad x
My partner is in the military and it would be an amazing surprise to tell him we’ve won when he comes back(He’s currently away for a few months).What better news to tell him we can get married sooner than we thought!
We’re a young couple just starting out, with tens of thousands pounds of debt, the money would help us have our dream wedding, despite a lack of funds!

We have been engaged for just over a year. In that time we have both started new jobs and bought a house.The next thing for us is to get married.We have been trying to save money but weddings are expensive.Winning this would be amazing.
We planned a wedding this year but we had to cancel it because we didn’t have enough money. So this will be a dream came true and a magic wedding for both of us and our new baby boy Noah.

1021 Johnny and I have been together for a while.When I met Johnny my life was on a bit of a downward spiral and I was really struggling. Since he has been with us, my daughter has grown in confidence and doing so well, we are both so very happy and this would complete our family.

1022 Our families are quite far apart and organizing a wedding that both families can attend is tricky.Winning this would mean that we could have a big wedding and use the money we would otherwise spend organizing a wedding to help both our families to attend.
