The Best Day!

We loved our day at Above the Bay and received so much praise from our guests. We were lucky it was a lovely dry day and the views were just spectacular. Our guests also praised the facilities, parking, setting and the food, which was excellent. It was so easy having the whole event under one roof, and we were able to use the different spaces. We enjoyed taking golf carts out onto the green and the indoor spaces were also ideal for our needs. The food was delicious and service was efficient, there were so many clean places, even from the fussiest of guests! The staff were very friendly, welcoming and engaged with the whole event.
We had a rocky start with the venue as it was in the process of changing hands. However, once this settled down and the two Sophies were in post everything got much easier, and communications were efficient and swift. On the day, Sophie W couldn't have been more flexible and responsive, really ensuring our day ran as smoothly as possible but also being relaxed and enabling us to enjoy our day. We'd just love to do it all over again!

We had an absolute blast on our wedding day. Sophie and Sophie made sure everything went smoothly and were so helpful during the planning stages. The venue was beautiful and the food was lovely. Thank you for helping make our day so special

Absolutely perfect!


Above The Bay is incredible, the food was beyond sensational and our guests were so impressed with it. There was something for everyone’s taste (we had the hot buffet), all was labelled and we had a few dietary requirements which were handled perfectly. Both Sophie’s were great on the day as well as leading up to it, they communicated well and went above and beyond with suggestions, support and ideas. They weren’t pushy in any way and we created the wedding we wanted. Thank you again so much! I couldn’t recommend this place enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
