Flawless
We were so well looked after by our wedding coordinator, and most of the time we didn’t even know what was going on behind the scenes, which is as it should be. Beautiful venue, shame the weather turned on us a little during the photoshoot but that can’t be helped, and we were supplied with umbrellas!

The best day of my life at the best venue
I honestly could not recommend the Vu enough!! The most amazing venue - everything was organised, flowed amazing and the staff are simply outstanding they go the extra miles to help you in so many ways. On the day of the wedding we had an outstanding wedding co-ordinator she was outstanding and because of her the wedding seemed so seem less any issues and Rhiannon was there to help she was amazing ! The Vu doesn’t only have a beautiful venue but has the greenery for beautiful back drops for photographs and also a body of water and a jetty for photos. The food was amazing so many of my guests complimented the food and we both loved the food great choices and so tasty, drink prices very reasonable, people can afford to enjoy themselves. Parking available for buses and a lot of cars. The over night stay in the lodge was magical the lodge was beautiful and the breakfast was stunning and very needed the next day ! We had and amazing day and as you probably can see by this review I honestly couldn’t recommend the Vu enough their staff and the Vu speaks for its self. The only feeling I feel people may worry about is that the Vu has two weddings a day, I can honestly say I never seen anyone from the other wedding, you wouldn’t know they are there If that’s a worry for anyone.

Just perfect
We recently had the pleasure of hosting our wedding at "The VU" and we are absolutely thrilled with the exceptional experience they provided. From start to finish, our celebration was nothing short of perfection, thanks to the amazing venue, attentive staff, and incredible attention to detail. The staff at The VU went above and beyond to make our day truly special. Their attention to detail was impeccable. Our heartfelt thanks to The VU for making our wedding day truly unforgettable.

The perfect day
I've been planning my wedding for quite a few years, I was anxious but I had no reason to be 💛 Amy and Bernie were excellent with emails and calls then on the day of the wedding we had Kayleigh for our wedding coordinator. Kayleigh went above and beyond to ensure everything was amazing she even helped me take my hair down and undo my wedding dress at the back since I struggled haha! All my guests were happy and buzzing! Genuinely could not ask for a better wedding if I'm honest. Once my guests

Venue and staff outstanding
We got married here on the 31st July and can’t thank the team enough for the extremely well run day that it was. Kirsten looked after us in the main and nothing was an issue. We were made to feel a priority, and didn’t have anything to stress about at all. This venue is one that can ensure your day is 100% and some!
