Our Process & Next Steps
Your wedding day deserves careful attention and thoughtful preparation. That is why we guide you personally and calmly from the very first moment.
This wedding brochure gives you an initial impression of our venue, the possibilities available and the atmosphere we offer. Does it appeal to you? We would be delighted to invite you for an introductory meeting and a tour, allowing you to experience the venue for yourselves. During this meeting, we will discuss your wishes and ideas. Based on these, we will prepare a proposal tailored to your day. Within one week, you will receive a clear and detailed quotation, after which we can review together whether everything meets your expectations. Should you have any further requests or adjustments, we will be happy to refine the proposal.
During the second appointment, we will arrange a dinner tasting so that you can experience the menu we plan to serve on your wedding day. This allows us to tailor the dinner entirely to your preferences.
Approximately two months before the wedding, we will send you a pro forma invoice for the deposit. This amount will, of course, be deducted from the final invoice, which will be sent after the wedding. Further details regarding payment and cancellation terms can be found in the quotation.
A few weeks before the wedding, we will schedule a final meeting to go through every detail together and put the finishing touches in place. Step by step, we will create a wedding day that feels complete in every detail and reflects your wishes perfectly. A Historic Wedding at Hotel Arsenaal
