Saving in Euros for a wedding abroad

Eviehart

So my partner and I are getting married next year in France, we have made the most of the amazing exchange rate by paying some big deposits, however we would like to be able to save money in euros now for payments we need to make next year whilst the exchange rate is so good, but I'm not aware of a way we can do this... As we have to make bank transfers to our wedding services so having the cash in euros at home is no use and I don't know what other options are available to us that will allow us to save euros for future payments now... Any advice would be appreciated as I'm sure there is a really simple answer to this... Thanks in advance 😁

Have you tried Googling "Euro savings account"?

Most high street banks seem to offer a Euro account option although I don't think the interest rate is anything to write home about.

Two examples...

Not quite high street but still a UK bank..
