We can’t thank you enough for all that you did for us! Genuinely an absolute pleasure to work with and so accommodating. It was so well organised and from start to finish you made everything possible and made our day magical. Also Stefan was amazing on the day, he thought of everything, was always on hand when we needed him and made us both feel at ease when things got a bit busy and hectic! My mum commented on how good he was the day after and they were very grateful of the room being so close to reception with my dads hips! Also the gift of champagne, your card and flutes were an added bonus. Thank you again.
