As a treat, our guests will be greeted by the King and Queen of the castle dressed in traditional medieval Slovenian costume. They will be giving a speech of well wishes in Slovenian before guests are seated. They don't do it in English but we thought this was too much fun to pass up so we are rolling with it. There will be canapés as a light refreshment after the ceremony.

There are many activities to be taken advantage of in and around Lake Bled - Hotel Triglav even offers day excursions by train to beautiful areas by the mountainside. Please feel free to spend your Sunday how you would like, however, if interested we will be taking a Pletna Boat to Lake Bled Island in the afternoon to ring in our nuptials. The Pletna are like Slovenian gondolas, you don't have to row them, and they fit up to 18 people. The dock is about a 20 minute walk from the hotel. St Mary’s Church – also known as the Church of the Mother of God on the Lake – was constructed in the late 1600s. A 99-step Baroque stairway, leading up to the church from the lake shore, was built around the same time. Inside the church, there’s a bell. This is the wishing bell, and it’s been a fixture in the church since the 17th century. There’s a legend associated with the bell and there is a tradition for married couples to ring it!
