Finally Married in Zell am see

Hi Ladies,

Long time no chat. Well I got married a month ago and it is truly the best thing you will ever decide to do. We got married through the hotel Heitzmann in Zell am see... they were amazing with every little details.. even the ones I forgot - they were better than my bridesmaid when it came to organising everything. I am sure you all know at this stage that the paper work is a bit tricky - hell no one told me until 3 wks before the wedding about the Premaritial agreement - so you can only begin to imagine how stressed I got over that.. and trying to ensure that it got over to the bishop in salzburg in time. You will find this website great if you are at all thinking about doing this type of wedding. www.wedding-austria.com my wedding is the one on the 21st March and yes it was freezing but worth it. The total crowd that we went with was 33 so the hotel catered perfectly when it came to food and beverages. I woud highly recommend this hotel because of their hospitality. My father suffers with Parkinson%26#39;s disease for the last 5 yrs %26amp; so his tremours r very obvious.. but Anita the hotel owners wife was absoultley terrific with him - she treated him as if he were her own father which took hugh pressure off me.

Anyways if you have any questions I would be glad to help as best that I can.... best of luck to you all

Hi, Congratulations!!

I am also getting married in Zell Am See in January 2006, this is to be organised by Crystal Holidays. You mentioned that the paperwork was tricky. Is this pre-marital agreement compulsory?? I am starting to get a little worried that I may forget something.

Congrats Niamho - sounds like you had a fab time. Best of luck to you and your hubby. Getting nervous now reading your post - only 9 weeks left til I am heading over there!

sammy please do not book with an agent - they charge you for things you don%26#39;t even need - book direct with the hotel - they do things so much better - in fatc the agents have never even visited zell am see so how can they possible answer any questions which you may have!!!!

happy to help with whatever i can. I know for me it was really worrying but I had the BEST wedding ever and people are still talking about it and when I look at the photos in the mountains I would do it all over again.

I got married at the Heitzmann o n the 25.3.08 (photos under Mcloughlin) on their website.

The heitzmann as others say take on board everything and it is the most stressless experience. The only pain if you can call it that is having to get your legal docs form London, but once you have this and send it to Rudi and anita at the Heitzmann thats all you have to worry about. we took a party of 30 over and we went sledging the day after which was really memorable and it snowed before and after the ceremony.

If I can help just let me know

Helen

Hi

When I started I used the numerous forums on Austrian weddings on trip advisor.There is one forum that had over 50 Pages on!!! This gave me the name of the Hotel Heitzmann at Zell am See. So many people had postive blogs about it that I then emailed the hotel for details. Also in Zell am See is the RomantikHotel.These seem to be the two main hotels that organise weddings. If you search either on the internet they have wedding pages(but remember to put Zell am see in your search as there are two Romantik Hotels in Austria)

The hotelliers are SO helpful. My experience is that the Heitzmann family if you say you are interested in dates will provisionally book the Castle Rosenberg (which is the town hall where the marriage takes place) on various dates that are free. You are NOT obliged then to take it but they do it in case the dates go, so you can always email back and say you have changed your mind. The dates are held for 14 days.

After that any queries you have the family emails back so quickly, but the general jist is that they will send you possible evening reception options etc.

They will then do everything and they sort out photographer, horse and carriage/transport, cake, food....Everything so much so all you need is your clothes and the relevant legal docs which the hotel will tell you about.

Hope that helps...Happy planning
