Late availability – 2023 wedding

The Hythe Imperial offers a varied selection of last-minute wedding packages.  These put you totally in control for your 2023 wedding.

Just some of these include a Small and Intimate Wedding Package, or a larger wedding using the ballroom such as the Hythe Wedding Package, suitable for 50 guests and up.

There are many more fantastic wedding packages to choose from.

Each of these wedding packages is an initial framework that you can build on when planning your perfect day with us.

AA-rosette fine dining at the Hythe Imperial

One amazing thing about having your last-minute wedding at the Hythe Imperial, is that all catering is done in house by our resident chefs.

This means you won’t have to worry about finding a caterer who can ‘fit you in’. Instead, it’ll be stress free, as our team arranges everything for you.

This is more than just standard wedding catering though. The Coast restaurant onsite offers fine dining, with modern British dishes created with locally-sourced ingredients that reflect the seasons.

It’s award-winning AA rosette dining, which has also won a Taste of Kent award from the Visit Kent Tourism Awards.

More tips for late-availability weddings

For a successful stress-free last-minute wedding, a good tip can be to keep it simple. Or at least, a little bit simpler!

Discuss as a couple what the most important things are to you both and focus mostly on those.

Is having a big ballroom evening party your main priority? Or maybe it’s more about an intimate garden wedding followed by a dinner with close family and friends?

Just decide what your ‘non-negotiables’ are and stick to them. Then you can look forward to an amazing wedding celebration that you are never going to forget!

And depending how much time you have until your big day – consider sending out a digital invite via email. That way your guests can start planning a little sooner too!
