Where do we begin!
We fell in love with The Elms on our first visit. The venue was exactly what we were looking for, not too big, not too small and surrounded by the most INCREDIBLE gardens. The bonus that there is accommodation on site as well just ticked another box for us.
The whole planning process was a dream, and that is down to the wonderful Victoria. No stone was left unturned, everything was covered and every single question (and I had a lot!!) was answered so promptly. I simply cannot fault Victoria for her organisation, attention to detail and just general loveliness.
Setting up the day before was great, and as we walked into the barn to set up our tables the first thing we saw were our beautiful flowers, provided by the exceptionally talented Teena and her team. They were simply beautiful and everything we imagined. All of the glassware and tableware was sparkling clean, and it made us even more excited for the following day!
The big day arrived and our flowers for bridesmaids, myself and the button holes were delivered by Victoria, and we were then chauffeured down to the barn in the venues Bentley. Such a beautiful car and made us feel all the more special. Once again, thank you to Victoria for organising all of our bridesmaids, flower girls and pageboys to enter the barn just how we wanted.
The food was delicious, so much so that some of our guests asked for second helpings of the potatoes, which they kindly obliged! I'd like to also say thank you to all of the waiting staff who served drinks, canapes, food and also turned the barn around for the ceremony, wedding breakfast and our reception. You are all superb.
The whole day went by so quickly but we have the most fabulous memories, it truly was the best day of our lives.
Once again a HUGE thank you to Victoria, Teena and all the other staff at The Elms. Without you all our day wouldn't have been the day we dreamed of, and we will be forever grateful.
With lots of love, Charlotte & Mikey Pilch xx
