David and I had a fantastic experience having our wedding on The Tall Ship Glenlee, the venue was perfect and all of the staff were incredible - we couldn’t have asked for anything better – which we knew from the moment we saw it (And booked it within hours of our visit with Lauren) One of our favourite pictures from our wedding shows the staff who were such an important part of our day and who feature daily on our digital photo frame at home!
