Late availability wedding dates occur when last-minute cancellations or changes to dates result in last-minute availability. These dates are then offered at short-notice to other couples allowing them to bring forward their big day to sooner than usual, allowing them to get married at a shorter notice.
Due to most bookings being made way in advance and meticulously pre-planned, late availability dates do not occur very often. If, however, there is a cancellation or last-minute change to a date, these dates will be added to our availability list.
If you have settled on a late-availability date, then we always recommend you act promptly. Our list of available dates is open to any couple who wishes to book with us, operating similar to a first-come, first-serve basis, so in order to secure the day, we always encourage you to act swiftly and confirm with us.
