What to Check in Gloucester Hotel Wedding Parking

It is so easy to forget to look into the parking for your wedding, but trust me it will cause so much stress on the wedding day if there aren’t enough spaces for guests and supplier’s cars.

Overall Capacity

Ask the venue to confirm how many parking spaces are available and then compare this with your expected guest list. A good rule of thumb is to assume that each two adult guests will have one car. Also allow space for suppliers to park and for late arrivals.

Disabled Bays and Access

Are there accessible spaces for people with disabilities? Are they located near the entrance to the venue? Is the venue complying with the current parking and transport guidance for Gloucestershire for drop-off of guests and for parking of guests’ cars?

Coach and Minibus Drop-Off

Do minibuses and coaches have a designated drop-off point with enough turning space for the vehicle? Not all hotel forecourts are able to accommodate full size coaches. More on Gloucester Hotel Wedding Venue can be found at https://tewkesburypark.co.uk/celebrate/hotel-wedding-venue/gloucester/.

Overnight Versus Day Guests

Ask if people who have stayed overnight can keep their car parked while you are away celebrating your wedding and if there is a cut off time for day guests in the evening and if they will be asked to move.

Parking Charges and Permits

Some hotels charge per car or require guests to display a permit in their car. Make sure you factor this into your overall budget and let your guests know in good time.

Shared Car Parks

Is the car park shared with other hotel guests on the Saturday of your wedding? If so, the hotel’s busy Saturday trade may fill all the spaces, and your guests will have to park elsewhere around the hotel.

Sorting the parking for your Gloucester Hotel Wedding Venue early on will mean that one of the potential headaches for you has been taken away.
