Such a beautiful venue with the loveliest staff. Nothing was too much for Filli and she made us feel so welcome and helped out massively on the day. I don't think we could ever thank you enough for everything you did for us. We will definitely be returning in the future as the venue holds such a special place in our hearts.

Fantastic

"I just wanted to say a massive thank you for organising the best day of our lives. It was even more than we hoped it would be. From the little details like the chalk board to the amazing food that all the guests were raving about and the overall smooth running of the day. Dave and I are so thankful about how seamlessly everything ran. Throughout the planning of our big day, our coordinator was an absolute star. Any email from her would stop my stresses instantly and she was an absolute pleasure to work with. We cannot recommend 1 Lombard Street enough!"
