🌿Todays Spotlight is on our Green Thumb here at Caer Llan, Rhiannon! 🌿

The hands & heart behind the gardens at Caer Llan. Through Patina Roots Gardening, she brings a touch of magic to our outdoor spaces, blending her expertise with true passion for nature.

We recently caught up with Rhiannon and asked her a few questions so you can get to know a little more about the face that helps keep our spaces beautiful.

🌿What do you get up to in your spare time?
I love spending time with my dogs Leo and Rusty, restoring my old Chevy truck, spending time with good friends, upcycling furniture, watching the drag racing… and gardening of course!

🌿What is your background?
Mum is my biggest inspiration, she’s a retired garden designer who’s taught me everything I know about gardening. I worked for the NHS for nearly 20 years as a Nurse and for the Ambulance Service, then after Covid I decided on a complete career change and turn my hobby into a business. I started Patina Roots Gardening almost 2 years ago and haven’t looked back!

🌿What is your Top Tip?
Always work with nature, attract more pollinators to make your plants thrive by letting a wild meadow grow, nature will know what to do.

🌿Describe a typical day in the life...
My typical day starts with planning out the tasks ahead, what needs doing in order of priority, I have a check list from my previous visit to remind me of anything that needs doing too. Every day is different depending on what’s growing, time of year and type of border I’m working on. Feeding, watering and dead heading this time of year especially and making sure everything is growing at its best.

🌿What is your favorite part of your job?
It has to be planting, any aspect of gardening is enjoyable whatever the weather but planting I feel gives optimism for what’s to come, nurturing the plants I have put in place gives a real sense of satisfaction to see thriving.

🌿What do you enjoy most about working at Caer Llan?
Working for Jake and Vicky is wonderful, such lovely people who want the best experience for their clients, they’re always optimistic and a joy to work for, kindly giving me freedom to create my own planting combinations.

We are thrilled to shine a spotlight ✨ on our favorite DJ - Justin Banwell.
Justin has been an integral part of the Caer Llan family for many years.
Our guests always rave about his incredible talent and the amazing atmosphere he creates.

To help you get to know Justin better, we asked him a few questions……

🎶What is your company motto?
When quality counts, book with confidence.

🎶What are your top tips?
Communication is key. Take time to speak to your entertainment provider in person, this will assure that they have a feel for your personality and musical requirements for your friends and family, making sure the right music styles are included.

🎶What do you enjoy most about working with Caer Llan?
I've had the pleasure of working at Caer Llan for the last 16 years and we have the same ethos that every wedding celebration is personal (and not just another wedding)

The homely feel and hospitality from Jake and Vicky and all the staff is second to none.

In my opinion there is no better wedding venue in Wales.

We always look forward to Justin providing the entertainment for guests at Caer Llan. If you haven’t experienced his magic yet, you’re missing out! Book him for your next event and prepare to dance the night away.

Head to our website and you can find Justin's details on the “Friends of Caer Llan” page.

💕A very happy 1st year anniversary to the Cook-Fullers from all of us at Caer Llan 💕

Our day here at Caer Llan started with a beautiful message from these two lovelies.

"It's one year on since Rhiân and I got married at Caer Llan and we just wanted to say a huge thank you for everything you did to create our dream day and give us an unforgettable weekend...yourselves and Caer Llan will always have a special place in our hearts & memories. I know our family and friends feel the same - it was honestly perfect and we are forever grateful that we were able to do it at Caer Llan.

We hope you and all the staff are doing really well.

Here's a couple of drone shots I filmed during setup for last Thursday's wedding of Amy and Callum at Caer Llan. The first pic is a 360 pic so scroll around the picture or move your phone to see the whole image and of course the view. Our lovely new stretch tent does a fantastic job of keeping the guests dry during rain and shaded from direct sunlight on hot days. The second video is a birds eye view of Caer Llan.
Special thanks to Lottie and her mum Judith from The Bloom Room Monmouth for providing amazing floral displays as always and also special thanks to Clare and her team Justine and Bethan from the Welsh Chair Cover Company for once again providing beatiful chair decorations as they have done so at Caer Llan for the last 15 years.

It was so very lovely for us to welcome back these guys last weekend, for what was their 20th Anniversary of their annual get together.

Since 2004 this same group of friends and their families have stayed for a long weekend over the first May Bank Holiday, and their 20th year was just as special, if not more so, than previous years.

With a houseful of 50 resident guests, our own team were fantastic at keeping fabulous food and drinks flowing throughout their stay.

There’s a bit of a back story here....
Trish and Nick Wyer who organise the annual event, along with help from their gorgeous daughter Maisy, first introduced the group following many other family connections with Caer Llan which date back to 1992.

In 1992 Nick’s sister Katie and her husband Ian Critch held their wedding reception at Caer Llan - this was our 2nd ever wedding.

In 1995 Tony and Sylvia Wyer (Kate and Nick’s parents) held their Ruby wedding anniversary party at Caer Llan.

In 2003 Sylvia Wyer held her 80th birthday party at Caer Llan. Tony and Sylvia have since sadly passed away, but their memory lives on in the form of an oak bench, which Nick provided several years ago and sits proudly in our gardens tucked away below the wedding gazebo.

In 2009 Nick’s brother John held his 50th birthday party here.

We also had the privilege of hosting Mel and Helen’s wedding here on 30th April 2016. Mel and his family are part of the 20 year reunion group, so his wedding to Helen was a lovely addition to the 2016 Bank Holiday weekend. They now celebrate their wedding anniversary each year at Caer Llan with the same group of friends.

It’s lovely to have watched this reunion continue and in particular, many of the youngsters from back in 2004 are now bringing their own children on the weekend.

See you all again next year.

“There is something truly magical about Caer Llan that is very difficult to put into words. It is without question beautiful, with magnificent views and amazing surroundings, but it’s so much more than that... your event is unique and whatever the reason for your visit we want it to be a truly special occasion. We only offer exclusive use, so you and your guests will be the only party here; the house and gardens are yours to explore and enjoy so there is no need to share amenities or our staff’s attention. We are 100% focused on delivering the best possible service to you and your guests”.
