Protocol
On arrival at the hotel after your wedding ceremony you and your guests will be shown into our Reception lounge where you will be offered drinks of your choice to relax before your wedding breakfast. There will also be a bar available.
Cutting the cake. It is our desire to accommodate our guests wishes. If you would like to cut the cake prior to the wedding breakfast we will organise this. However, should you wish to cut the cake at any other point we can accommodate this easily.
At a time of your choosing, our Master of Ceremonies will announce the wedding breakfast and call for all guests to be seated. Once everyone excluding the Bride and Groom is seated in our Queensberry Suite our master of ceremonies will then ask everyone to be upstanding to welcome the Bride and Groom.
Once the meal is over and the coffee and toast drinks have been served, it is time for the speeches to take place. These are traditionally done in the following order:
Brides Father ~ Says a few words and proposes toasts to the Bride and Groom and thanks the guests ¨ Bridegroom ~ Replies to the Brides Father, thanks both sets of parents, best man, Bridesmaids and Ushers and proposes a toast ¨ Best Man ~ Thanks the Bride and Groom on behalf of himself and the Bridesmaids, then reads the telegrams
This is traditional. However, should you have alternative ideas, these can be included. Its your day and we are here to make it the best, so whatever you wish, we will do our utmost to achieve for you.
Once all formalities have been completed, you and your guests are free to enjoy the evening.
If you have chosen to have an evening reception, we will clear the tables and re-set the room. You can then dance the night away to the entertainment of your choice.
The important point is that you relax and enjoy your day.
Inside, extensive use of mellow hardwoods echo the timber tall ships of old - once regular visitors to the towns harbour. Our Annan Suite is designed as the perfect multi-purpose venue. Fully equipped, it is regularly 'tailored' to meet the demands of weddings, functions, conferences or exhibitions.
