The happy couple meet Katie Bizley from Smile's Party World Picture Ref: 76871-62THE Adver's Bride of the Year winners are in for a treat at the Goddard Arms Hotel.

The hotel in Old Town has been providing the venue for the competition for five years now.

And our competition winners, Samantha Moaby, 30, and Paul Webb, 30, are pleased they will be able to enjoy their reception in such luxurious surroundings.

The couple, of Archer Close, Kingsdown, have been in a whirl since first winning the competition in January.

But they have been well looked after at the hotel by event manager Steve Goulding.

Samantha, a part-time sales assistant, said: "The hotel is absolutely brilliant. It's lovely.

"Steve has been really kind to us, we all know each other quite well now.

"It's a great place to have our reception.

"The room that we will be in is like a big ballroom, it's great."

And this is just how Mr Goulding wanted the couple to feel.

He is proud to be part of the competition.

He said: "Each year is very special to me and of course each wedding is so different, which is one of the reasons why I like to be involved in this very prestigious event."

The hotel is licensed to perform civil ceremonies and the suites can cater for up to 80 people.

The largest function suite is a Georgian ballroom, with gold chandeliers going down the centre of the room.

For the evening reception, the hotel can cater for up to 180 people, providing a range of different menus.

The hotel still has some availability for this year and is taking bookings for 2006 and 2007.
