It’s so exciting isn’t it!

New Year’s Eve is my favourite, I prefer it over Christmas to be honest. A whole year of possibilities in front of you, I find it thrilling!

Maybe you’ve set the date in your mind that 2026 is the year you say I do, but you need to say up and find a venue?

Well Hampshire Wedding Network can help you find a beautiful hidden gem venue that is still affordable, making the whole process a lot less stressful!

Our founder Andrea Strong has been in the wedding industry in Hampshire for just over 10 years & loves sharing her knowledge of venues and suppliers with couples.

You’ve just got engaged to your soulmate and life is good!! 😊

Then you start researching venues and weddings and realise how quickly the costs can quickly mount up. 😔

Don’t worry, at Hampshire Wedding Network we get it, that’s why we have wedding fayres at venues that are ✨beautiful✨ but affordable also! 😁 You won’t feel like you’re comprising and you won’t feel sick at the costs either!

Plus wedding fayres are a great way to meet suppliers face to face to see if they pass the vibe check & get ideas about the latest trends and ideas.

So check out our 2025 fayres at venues all across Hampshire with some fantastic new venues! Fayres are FREE to attend but registration is required. There’s also VIP goodies bags available to buy on the day with lots of treats and special offers ONLY available in the VIP bags 😍

Delighted to announce that we will be partnering up with the newly refurbished and rebranded VOCO Wi******er (formally ******er) in 2025!

This hidden gem of a hotel has started the process of its refurbishment and I was lucky enough to meet with the General Manager Jon Beare during the summer to get a sneak peek - it’s going to look incredible when it’s completed!

VOCO brings a warmth and individuality to each hotel and I can’t wait to see the finished product, the weddings here are going to be beautiful with the outdoor courtyard space nestled in the South Downs National Park.
