Olympic Gold for wedding Venue
Hi Karen! Ahhh so many people have been saying Mrs B and I keep forgetting to react to it- might take awhile! We had the most amazing day and we cannot thank you and your girls enough, nothing was too much trouble and the day went so smoothly. You and them are a credit and should be so proud of yourselves. So many of our guests loved the venue so much and commented on how good the food was as well. Not a bad word was said about anything. Honestly if we could hand out Olympic medals for wedding venues gold all the way for you!

You both have been amazing from the start of our journey with you
Hi Karen & Jay, Thanks so much for Saturday we had an absolute blast! The barn looked stunning and guests kept telling us what a lovely venue it was. The staff were just amazing and a special thanks to Lauren for all her help during the day/evening, everything ran so smoothly. Chef even made one of our guests a cheese sandwich for starters as she couldn't have the pate as she's pregnant (sorry for no advance warning on that one) so thank you for your flexibility. Liam loved his double portions and yes polished it all off! You both have been amazing from the start of our journey with you to now. Nothing has ever been too much to ask and you've always been at the end of the phone/email to remind me us of what we'd chosen for the day, given the delays with covid we couldn't remember much from the first wedding meeting! We are sorry we didn't get to share our special day with John as he really was the reason we chose the venue. He made us feel so comfortable and relaxed when we first viewed the barn and we knew immediately that's where we wanted our big day. Hopefully, he was looking down on us on Saturday with a smile on his face knowing that everything is still running like clockwork by two wonderful people! So from the bottom of our hearts THANK YOU SO MUCH, we couldn't have asked for a better day! My sister in law took a lovely photo of the barn so I've attached it in case you would like it. If I get any others I'll let you know. Once we have some photos from John the photographer we will share some with you. Thanks again, Amy & Liam x or should I say Mr & Mrs Robinson x

We wish we could relive it all!
Hi Karen and Priory team, We have just got back from our mini-moon at brownsea and wanted to reach out to say what an amazing magical day we had, honestly it couldn't have gone better and we know that was down to a heroic effort by you, Jeff, Lauren and the team (hoping by now you might have received the card we sent?) We wish we could relive it all! Every single guest said how beautiful the venue was, how efficient the service was and how absolutely delicious the food was. We cannot thank you enough. We hope that you all get some much deserved time off to relax and indulge after having what we can only assume one of the most manic and chaotic years yet with double serving of weddings. We look forward to hearing from you soon. Attached are some images our photographer Samantha Wheeldon from Inspire Images and our guests have sent through as a sneak preview. Kind regards, Liana and Sophie
