We couldn't be happier.
Dear Nicola, I hope you are well. Life as a married couple is now underway, and we couldn't be happier. We had the best day, and it really wouldn't have been possible without you. You made the day run so smoothly and stress free, and we can't thank you enough. The build up to the wedding and the pre wedding organisations were also made so easy and straight forward thanks to all of your advice and support. Many thanks again, Mr & Mrs McIntyre

Day could not have gone more smoothly
Good morning Nicola, Hope you are having a good week. Just wanted to forward some of the wedding pictures we have received from Lysette so far - they couldn't have come out any better! Just want to say from both of us - the day could not have gone more smoothly and we are so grateful to you and your staff for making the day such a success (we have already booked an anniversary trip staying at Parkhead next year so hope to see you then!) Thanks again Davd

Lost for words
I’m slightly lost for words when reflecting on the weekend. Your leadership, staff, venue and attention to detail were phenomenal to provide an amazing wedding event for Ryan and Georgia. Our guests were all so complimentary of what you delivered on both days. We are all very appreciative of the hospitality from start to finish. Much appreciated.

A true dream come true
Dear Nicola & Clare, I genuinely couldn’t picture anything going more perfect. Every single staff member was amazing and the guests couldn’t stop talking about that, too! The food was delicious and the service was genuinely top notch. I can’t thank you and your team enough for making the wedding planning process up to the big day a true dream come true.

Feeling blessed
Dear Nicola, Thank you very much for all your support in the last months and your wonderful help on our wedding day! You are a great and we warm person and we couldn’t feel any better. We still feel very blessed and happy about it and talk about our wedding every day. We received great feedback from our guests and everything was just perfect for us. The pick up went very quick and friendly and afterwards we found the Hopetoun Farm Shop - now we have a Hopetoun Bag 😍. Stay in touch x
