Happy couple married in October
November 2018
They couldn't have done anymore if they tried...
Quite simply the most amazing organisational skills every. I have OCD and everything has to be exact, Lisa, Sean, Brian and staff simply took my breath away with their amazing attention to detail. There was nothing that was left to chance, the table plans and the setting out of the centrepieces looked amazing. My planning was so much easier with their assistance. The food was amazing, the disco they provided was fabulous - everyone was on the dance floor. Nothing was too much trouble - they made all my dreams come true!

Describe the best wedding that happened at your venue?
My all time best wedding moment was a surprise. An actor was booked to attend the wedding ceremony as Patsy from the sitcom Absolutely Fabulous. At the point the registrars said the bit about does anyone object to this wedding. Patsy burst through the doors with a bottle in one hand and a fake cigarette in the other and said i'm here for the AA meeting. The whole room looked in shock and then roared with laughter. Such a lovely memory of this special day. :-)
