- Find out more about Katie and what she loves most about her role below:
What attracted you to the wedding industry?
Definitely the variety! Each couple brings their own style and vision. It is a creative, fast paced and an exciting role where no two days are the same.
What is your favourite wedding room at The Coniston?
Winston's Barn has to be my favourite - I love how intimate it is!
What is your favourite first dance song?
Kiss Me - Sixpence None the Richer
What is your favourite place on the estate to have a photo?
On the jetty outside the fishing bothy. It is so beautiful and overlooks the lake with the rolling hills in the background.
What is your favourite dish on our wedding menu?
I'm a real foodie and would enjoy every dish on our seasonal menus, but to narrow it down following recent rave reviews, it would have to be the Roast Striploin of Yorkshire Beef!
What is your favourite love quote?
I was weaned on Elvis Presley as my lovely late Dad was a huge fan, so my favourite love quote has to be 'Take my hand, take my whole life too, for I can't help falling in love with you."

What is your favourite thing about Weddings at The Coniston?
There are so many things I adore about Coniston Weddings! I really love the inclusion of a creative spend within our packages, as this allows our couples to shop for all their venue decorations without any stress and at a reduced price. I also love that Weddings at The Coniston are exclusive, making each day incredibly personal and special
What attracted you to the role?
The main attraction to the role for me was how rewarding it is and how it brings such variety as no day is the same! I love how I get to meet all types of people - each with their own special love story - and help them with one of the most important days of their lives.
What is your favourite Wedding room?
The Garnett Room is definitely my favourite wedding room as it is such a versatile space that can be tailored to different themes, whether it’s classic and cosy or elegant and modern!
What is your favourite first dance song?
My favourite first dance song is Outnumbered by Dermot Kennedy. The lyrics are beautiful and the meaning behind it is really special.
