PORTHLEVEN restaurant Amélies will be holding a wedding showcase next month and is inviting all engaged, or yet to be engaged couples to come along.

Anyone thinking of getting married in 2016 can pop along to the event on Saturday, November 7 between 11am and 4pm.

It’ll be a great opportunity to view the venue, meet the team and find out how they can help you to create your perfect wedding day, your way.

Recently featured on BBC2 programme Alex Polizzi: Chefs on Trial, the popular harbourside restaurant is fully licensed to hold full, civil wedding ceremonies as well as very special wedding receptions.

Couples who visit the wedding showcase will also receive a welcome drink from local winery Polgoon, and a complimentary goody bag (whilst stocks last).

Amélies can be hired for the whole or part of the day and offers two spaces, the Old Smokehouse and the Terrace, which can be hired separately or exclusively for the entire day.

From gorgeous gowns to perfect photography, a whole host of Amélies favourite local wedding suppliers will also be on hand, offering advice and information to brides and grooms-to-be. Couples can have their photo taken in a VW Photo booth from Cool4Campers and meet restaurant owner Sam Sheffield-Dunstan and Head Chef Paul James to talk about details including décor, ceremony layouts and food and drink options.

Amélies owner Sam Sheffield-Dunstan said: “Whether you want a romantic, festival-style wedding, complete with cool jazz band, a bucketful of relaxed Cornish seaside fun, or an intimate affair decked with vintage china, we're committed to listening to what couples want and to making their big day special.

“Over 20 couples have already tied the knot here at Amélies, where we can cater for parties up to around 80 people. We focus on making each wedding individual and unique: a day with food, wine and great times to remember.”

Exhibitors on the day will include: Gourmet Picnics, Clowance Flowers, Ballooning Buds and Bows, Cool4Campers, DJ in Cornwall, Gwelhellin, Porthleven Jewellery Workshop, Fairytale Wedding Stationery, No 3 Lash and Brow Bar and more.
