River Cottage will soon make one lucky couple's dream come true with a complimentary wedding, set in their famous 100-acre organic farm on the border of Devon and Dorset.

Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall will personally handpick the winning couple's names out of a hat at the end of January 2023. The prize will provide the setting of River Cottage HQ as the venue for the couple to celebrate their special day.

The prize includes canapés, a three-course seasonal meal served with coffee and petit fours, plus accommodation in the famous River Cottage Farmhouse for six people on the night of the wedding. Surrounded by sensational Devon countryside and organic farmland, this dream wedding location offers exclusive use of its grounds for the day.

As seen on the River Cottage TV series, the spectacular backdrop features the renowned River Cottage Farmhouse Kitchen Garden, a beautifully restored 18th century Threshing Barn and grounds full of fruit trees, streams and meadows. With superb food and drink at the core of River Cottage, the kitchen team pride themselves on unforgettable celebratory feasts, using the very best local and seasonal produce. In the lead-up to the big day, their chefs will be on hand to help the lucky couple design a perfect, tailor-made menu.

From the outset, River Cottage's dedicated wedding coordinator will work closely with the lucky couple to-be, from bringing their conceptual ideas to life, right through to ensuring the big day runs smoothly - and most importantly, is stress-free and fun!

The competition is open to couples who book a wedding to take place between 1st September 2023 and 31st March 2024. Entry into the prize draw will be on receipt of a signed contractual booking and payment of a 25% non-refundable deposit, during the promotional period of 25th September 2022 to 31st January 2023 (inclusive).

Celebrant vs registrar vs humanist celebrant: What's the difference? Ceremony Master explains...

A registrar takes care of the legal civil marriage, while an independent celebrant can create a bespoke ceremony tailored to your story, preferences and values.

Modern wedding rituals revealed as Brits bury sausages for the big day

Modern wedding rituals revealed as Brits bury sausages for the big day

For decades, the British wedding has followed a well-known rulebook of etiquette, from formal seating plans to three tier cakes. However, new research from Moonpig, the UK's leading online greeting card and gift retailer, has revealed that the nation is moving away from these traditions in favour of highly personal and often quirky rituals. The study of 1,500 Brits reveals that authenticity is winning over tradition. Six in ten (59%) believe a wedding should be a true reflection of the couple's personalities, even if it means breaking classic wedding etiquette. To ensure their day feels truly unique, many are turning to unconventional superstitions and spiritual services. Over one in five (22%) Brits said they have buried or would consider burying a sausage to guarantee good weather on their wedding day. Meanwhile, over a third (39%) would consider hiring an 'Etsy witch' or similar spiritualist to provide blessing rituals for their big day.
