Wedding was sparkle shine, fun and special thanks to the venue being so accommodating with our request amazing time

A MASSIVE Special heartfelt thank you to Lilleshall House and Gardens for hosting such an incredible wedding venue for us. Sarah and Nichola THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for putting up with my crazy zany ideas. Some of them were very last minute lol 😆 we pulled it off together and I trusted you 100%. Your attention to detail is very much appreciated and keeping me at ease and calm.

I knew it'd fabulous on the big day and it was more than we could of wished for. It was Sarah first wedding running things and you'd not of known! Outstanding job she did. You're all incredible consummate professionals, hard working and I remember what that was like having worked in hotels. Even when it went on a bit longer eeekk, no one knew. We all kept calm. Literally, nothing was too much trouble and Nichola is fab at keeping secrets! She even made me believe we were having fireworks so to keep a surprise for my Husband lol.! Thank you for allowing Alfonso and Rococo the alpacas to our wedding, they were such stars and my Dad and guests shall have lasting memories of meeting them. The Singers Secreto too and disguising themselves into your team of staff, they were brill and my Husband was shocked. We will certainly recommend you guys for weddings. The food was fantastic our guests were well looked after in every detail. We couldn't of asked for better service or location. Highly recommended. I want to do it all again. Many guests are saying it's the best wedding they've been to. Beautiful grounds and gardens too for photos . Nick and Lynds Ellison wedding 20th April 2024.

Above and Beyond

Myself and Leanne would like to thank you and your team for an absolutely amazing day.

From our arrival on the day before till leaving Sunday Morning we feel that yourself and the team have gone above and beyond. Everyone was exceptionally friendly and nothing was too much trouble; From taking Myself and Leanne the 40 meters in the mini bus (with a sheet in it so we didn't get dirty) to Ford hall because it was drizzling, to finding us in the hail with an umbrella just in case; and even giving our guests a lift to a nearby hotel at the end of the evening.

To have been any more looked after wouldn't have been a possibility. Our day was perfect, and this was in part because of your outstanding venue and team.

Special day made perfect!

Everything was perfect for the whole day. We had lovely comments regarding the venue, grounds and the staff. Everyone was so well mannered and nothing was too much trouble. My friend was also offered a room to feed her baby! We're so overwhelmed still by the whole day.

Thank you so much for all your help with all the planning and organisation for the day, you really helped massively and took a lot of pressure and stress from me.

Married in October, 2015.
