Reasons

 

27.3     The proposed changes to the current non-statutory ceremony packages on offer at Southover Grange, and the introduction of additional services, will maintain and enhance the Service’s offering for customers, allowing them more flexibility in their choices and improving further the opportunity to upsell ceremony-only bookings to include an enhancement.
