4th April 2014 Vintage Wedding

Hi Colette,

We would like to say a massive thank you for all of your help when we organised our wedding, especially allowing us to decorate the room the day before. Natasha's vintage vision
definitely was a reality on the big day!

Please pass on our gratitude to the food and beverage team as the food was brilliant (we had lots of great feedback). The team did a fantastic job on the day, their hard work showed as the service was perfect.

Thank you once again for everything.

Regards
Mr and Mrs Healey

Wedding 17th may 2014

For the attn. of Colette.

The wedding event you carried out for our daughter Amy and Julian was absolutely perfect. The whole experience was faultless. The service from your staff can only be described as highly polished. They were all so efficient, obviously enjoying their jobs, nothing was too much trouble for them. The tables looked stunning and the food was faultless. Please give our thanks to all the staff involved, especially your Chef, who must have worked with such precision to provide the meal. We are sure you must all be very proud to know that you offer such a perfect day. We dont think any of your competitors can reach your standards!

Chris and Len Fellowes.

Much appreciated

Sarah and I want to say how much we appreciated everyone’s involvement in our wedding reception at Chesfield Downs last Thursday. The attention to detail from Joel and the staff was excellent, as was the food – please pass on our sincere thanks to them and everyone else involved.

All our guests commented on the quality of the food and staff so you may be justifiably pleased with their performance.

Just a quick note...

We would just like to thank you for all of your help in the last few months. Everything went well and it certainly wouldn't have been possible without your organisation. The food and service was great, everybody said how much they enjoyed themselves and so did we.
