April's Ending

Well here we are now at the begining of May... where has the first quarter of the year gone?

Pelham House ended April with lots of celebrations......

Firstly we had the Royal Wedding on Friday. The hotel entrance was decked out with red, white and blue bunting and union flags flapped away in the breeze. Screening the happy occasion in both the Tom Paine Room and The Chamber Room, guests sat happily cheering on as HRH William and Catherine said their "I Do's". Other guests enjoyed the hotel's "Royal Afternoon Tea" outside on the garden terrace. Later on in the evening The Terrace Room hosted an 80th birthday party where guests partied and danced the night away.

Saturday saw another wedding celebration at the hotel. Having been married in a local church the happy couple arrived with their guests just before 3pm and took drinks on the garden terrace. The Chamber had been deced out with a yellow colour scheme, which picked up the colour of the Chelsea football club away strip. The tables had been named after famous football players, all in keeping with the happy couples love of the sport. After enjoying a sumptuous wedding breakfast which included a Herbed Lamb main course, the wedding party was joined by evening guests who made the most of the evening and energetically danced away until midnight.

And... the hotel is very pleased to announce its own reason to celebrate. John, the restaurant manager, and Lindsey, the events manager, announced their engagement on Friday. John "did the deed" and got down on bended knee on Brighton Beach and asked Lindsey for her hand in marriage. Of course she said yes and so is now sporting a dazzling engagment ring of a solitare diamond set in luxurious white gold. All the staff at the hotel send their best wishes to John and Lindsey. Congraulatons to you both.
