We attended a wedding hosted at the hotel

We attended a wedding hosted at the hotel. Albeit it caters for about 80 people, the format for the wedding and following wedding breakfast was excellent. The main course was beef wellington which was superb. Undoubtedly one of the best wedding breakfasts I've ever tasted.

Hi Klaudia Just wanted to say thank you so much for making our day as perfect as it was. We thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. You, your team and the venue itself are incredible. We are so so happy that we got married outside in the beautiful garden and quite chuffed that we were the first couple to do so.

You even got the sun to shine!

Dan, we are not sure where to begin in expressing our gratitude to you for all your hard work at every stage in bringing our plans for the wedding to final fruition on the 19th March. Your beautiful venue, professional and dedicated staff, your own personal attention to detail and endless patience and support meant we had the time of our lives. We may have waited 32 years for our wedding day but it was worth waiting for. You even got the sun to shine. Shame you had no influence over the rugby result!! All our guests agreed we were very lucky to have found Holm House and we look forward to celebrating more occasions with you in the future! To all the staff who were working at our wedding, we would like to say a massive thank you for everything you did to make our day sun so smoothly. Your dedication and professionalism did not go unnoticed by our guests who thought that everything was absolutely first class. We had a ball and hope that you enjoyed yourselves in spite of having to work Lots of love Margaret and Brian

Remember your wedding is going to be one of the best days of your life and you have probably been thinking about this day for years so make sure you get what you have dreamed of!

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

We love it when couples make their day uniquely theirs, such as one couple that themed every little details of their wedding to remind them of Spain, another couple that named the tables after their favourite holiday destinations which they have visited in the past. We also had a wedding when one of the bridesmaids was a puppy wearing a tutu dress with wedding rings attached to her collar, so adorable!
