With stately homes and walks through meadows, ancient woodland and intimate pubs, it's a genuinely romantic place too.

Visiting Berkshire
While you might be too busy thinking about the flowers, whether the caterers are going to turn up on time and where you're going to house all those guests, there's still plenty to see and do in Berkshire. Escape the planning and madness for a few hours and head to Cliveden, a gorgeous stately home that once belonged to the American businessman, newspaper publisher and politician William Waldorf Astor. If you need to grab 'something new or blue' for the ceremony, then Reading is a popular market town and one of the largest urban centres in Berkshire. Forming part of the London commuter belt, the area around Reading has been a settlement since Roman times and with its abbey remains, Forbury Gardens and ruined castles nearby is testament to both its heritage and its links with royalty.
