Eseelle H. Married on 27/08/2021Wedding at the Pump House Gallery
Having our wedding at Battersea park was very special, and the park made it an amazing venue. However, it was like pulling teeth to get the team to reply to emails and answer my questions. On the day the pump house was FILTHY. The toilets were disgustingly dirty, the back where the caterers work was rat infested - totally unhygienic. Really disappointed with the standard of the Pumphouse. -

Jonny F.This is basically run by crooks
We were due to get married here but could not go ahead due to Covid-19. We had parted with thousands of pounds but the only solution they offered us was moving our August date to March (for an outdoor wedding in the UK). They were utterly unsympathetic to our situation and were unwilling to budge and offer us a refund... despite incurring zero costs!
They definitely showed their true colours and it does shine some light on the kind of crooks that work in some our public entities. On the other hand, almost all of the private vendors that we were contracted with were incredible... they, by and large, completely refunded us, despite the financial hardships they must have been facing. We even offered to compromise with a few that were really struggling to stay afloat.
It's appalling that it was council-backed EnableLC who gave us the least support despite not being in the same precarious situation as a lot of those small businesses.
I've given it some time before leaving this review. It's good to let the dust settle. But upon reflection, I still feel just as exploited by EnableLC, Battersea Park, and Wandsworth Council as I did back then.
Avoid like the plague. A morally bankrupt organisation.
