Having a daughter marry besets a father with many problems. Choosing Goldsborough Hall, basically a specialist venue, sooths many of these away. This historic country house near Knaresborough has been through many guises, but its latest incarnation as a 'venue' (which also takes guests), is frankly stunning.
Up to the event I adopted the traditional paternal role (sit in a corner and sign cheques) and, although GH was never cheap, it was markedly less expensive than alternative venues, and of course one had the whole place rather than share with other guests. Since holding weddings is what GH do, our co-ordinator knew everything that was required and set it all up according to my daughter's wishes.
The day ran beautifully (helped by unbroken sunshine) with the staff invisibly ensuring everything was just so. Delicious food, unobtrusive service.
'Chief' guests stay in the hall - everyone has a suite with jacuzzi etc. As we all tottered off to bed our simultaneous jacuzzi use plunged the whole place into darkness so we felt a bit guilty as the owner had to change fuses at midnight.
Trad Yorkshire breakfast for all the next morning topped it all off.
