No Corkage Wedding Drinks
Supply Your Own Wedding Drinks
No corkage wedding venues give you the option to source and supply all your own wedding drinks for the drinks reception and throughout your wedding breakfast meal.
Whether you plan to treat guests to a fruity Pimms, indulge your passion for prosecco or share your love of craft beers; you can supply your own wedding drinks and we won’t apply any service or corkage charge.
Whilst the Happy Couple are welcome supply their own no corkage wedding drinks; wedding guests are not permitted to bring their own drinks.
Drinks Reception Wedding Drinks
When thinking about the Drinks Reception straight after your ceremony, the classics work well; champagne or prosecco with a selection of bottled beers.
‘Long’ drinks are perfect for your drinks reception where you want everyone to relax and have a great time but you don’t want anyone to get too tipsy to enjoy the meal!
Don’t forget to provide some soft drinks for any drivers or children; there are some amazingly sophisticated non-alcoholic options available.
Wedding Drinks to Accompany Your Meal
We’re sure you’ll choose some delicious wines to accompany your incredible wedding day feast. A crisp fruity white or a smooth full-bodied red, perhaps a cheeky rosé too?
We’ll make sure that a bottle of each is put out on the tables before your guests take their seats and we’ll keep replenishing the bottles throughout the meal.
As the moment for your incredible speeches approaches our caterers will charge the toast glasses with your choice of bubbly.
How it Works
On the run up to your wedding you can take advantage of those incredible supermarket offers and store your spoils at home in preparation for the big day.
Talk to us early on about what which wedding drinks you’re hoping to provide, so that we can give you some guidance on quantities and confirm that we can provide the appropriate glassware.
As your wedding day approaches, you’ll complete our quick online Wedding Drinks Inventory so we know what to expect when you drop off all the wedding drinks at 9am the day before your wedding. We’ll pop anything that needs chilling straight into the walk-in chiller and keep your red wines at the perfect room temperature.

Top Tips
Your reception drinks should kick start your celebrations but if you serve very strong drinks to thirsty guests you may end up with some exceedingly tipsy guests a little too early in the proceedings!
You’ll put your heart and soul into selecting an amazing wedding breakfast menu, it’d be a shame if half your guests were too giddy to enjoy it.
That’s why the classics work so well; a glass of bubbly, a nice fruity Pimm's, bottled beers, they help guests relax without flooring them!
Top Tip: Limit the choice of drinks; in our experience, offering a wide variety of different drinks results in a lot of waste and a slower drinks service.
