      AMAZING DAY
      Dear Manoli, Andrew and all the Elvetham Team, We just wanted to say a HUGE HUGE HUGE THANK YOU for making our wedding day (May 28th) SO amazing. It truly was the most magical, memorable and best day of our lives. Your attention to detail and accommodation of our many requests (including the weird and wonderful falconry display!), meant the day ran exceptionally smoothly and was everything we had dreamt of and more. We couldn't have asked for a better venue or more attentive and friendly staff. We hope there wasn't too much to clean up the next day!

      A truly amazing day!

      This day will live in our memories
      I take this opportunity to thank Manoli and all the staff at the Elvetham for making our day so special. In particular please pass on our thanks to Andrew, Ali and Alex. They were so pleasant and helpful. Talking about the day afterwards, none of us could think of a single thing that did not go as planned or that we would have changed. The wedding breakfast was suberbly organised and food absolutely gorgeous. All our guests were very complimentary about the meal and the day in general. We were very pleased with all the little touches, such as glasses of water to drink for the bridal party just before the ceremony.This turns a good day into a great day. You even managed to arrange good weather for us! The Elvetham is such a beautiful building and everyone really enjoyed the ambience of the place. Of course such an ambience also requires hard work from all the staff to maintain. Once again please pass on our thanks to all. this day will live long in our memories.

      A day we will never forget
      Myself and Leanne just wanted to drop a few lines to thank Manoli and all the staff at the Elvetham for making our wedding day so special. All the staff were brilliant and all our guests remarked on how friendly and helpful they all were. It is a day myself and Leanne will never forget and the Elvetham certainly played a part in making it so so special. Thanks again for all your help and please pass our thanks on to all the staff. Best Regards Andrew & Leanne

      My Daughters Wedding
      We would like to send you and your staff our sincere thanks for making Nadia and Geoff’s wedding such a perfect day, for them and for all of our guests. It is very rare that when looking back there is not something to criticise, but in this case everything went according to plan (even the sun came out on cue), and we could not have wished for a better day. As we say in Ireland thanks a million. Hope to see you again in the not too distant future, (not for a wedding, but for a meal). Sincere thanks, Mr and Mrs Booth

      My Perfect Day
      I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and the guys on the day as you were all brilliant! You helped me so much over the last 18 months and I really do appreciate that as I know I was pretty clueless on most things. The staff on the day were also absolutely fantastic and it was always the case of they couldn’t do enough for us. I had such a wonderful day which I will never ever forget and the one comment I hear the most is about how stunning the venue was and how great the staff were. Also, the food was delicious with a lot of people saying it was the best wedding food they have ever had and I have to agree with them. Thanks again Manoli, and take care! Regards, Kate

      A truly special day
      We wanted to say a huge thanks to Manoli and the team at The Elvetham for making our wedding on Saturday truly, truly special. The whole team there is *just fantastic* -Nick in particular on the night kept everything running so smoothly (and rumour has it wrote the MC's speech!), and Ally followed us everywhere with champagne, and Val kept us well taken care of too. The cake looked beautiful, please let Philip know how lovely it was and how pleased we were. And a super thank you to Andrew too, who was able amongst other last-minute challenges to find a way to display our world map. Of course, without you none of this would have happened. Thank you, Manoli, for everything you have done for us. It's been incredibly wonderful. Sophie & Harvey

      THE place to get married in North East Hampshire
      At the time of writing this there were 62 reviews and not one had a Service or Location scoring of less than 5. Luck? No I don’t think so. The whole journey from the first meeting with the wedding specialist to the day itself can only be described as a pleasure. Magical venue, fabulous food and great service everything was just perfect. We would certainly recommend it without the slightest hesitation.
