After the ceremony and evening celebrations we'll be staying in the luxury bed and breakfast accommodation there. It'll be the first (and probably only) time we'll be sleeping at a castle!

We shan't be able to take pictures inside the actual castle - lots of old and fine artwork etc. If it's not too freezing cold, I may be able to snap a few on Sunday morning outside. This castle was the home of Anne Boleyn - the executed second wife of King Henry VIII. Roxy! 1 Awards

Yes yes I know all about that. I've actually read many Tudor books and the history behind Anne Boleyn and her sister Mary. And their love triangle with the King. Now I really am jealous of you. .

My nearest is Dover. It's a beautiful place but sadly some of it isn't open to the public. You are very limited in what you can do there. BUT, have fun tomorrow and try to get some pictures of the outside of Hever! It's a spectacular building. I THINK I went there once as a kid, I might not be sure but either way, all the best! hxtr 1 Awards

The venue was stupendous and the accommodation very comfortable. There was a blanket ban on all photography inside the castle but one of the bride's relatives who did the floral displays was allowed to photograph her work before we sat down to the wedding breakfast. She's allowed me to share the view... It was so cold outside, the following morning (the car was encased in ice and the air was -4 degrees C), that I didn't fancy a stroll in the grounds!
