Wedding Party at The Half Moon- the perfect celebration
So, it's fair to say that HM was essentially the back bone to our wedding.
A few specific details:
Ann-Marie was, without question, the best person we worked with throughout our entire wedding. If you want to feel looked after, supported, and shown total honesty and integrity at all times then look no further. There is enough stress with a wedding, and I must honesty say that Ann-Marie (without knowing it) was responsible for keeping my nerves and brain calm for about a year. At every single point, she replied promptly, stuck to her word and delivered beautifully.
Value for money was spot on. Again, Ann-Marie helped us work out the best way to achieve maximum value for money, so we constantly felt like we were doing the best for our guests. A wedding isn't cheap, so to be told honestly about prices and options, in a clear way was essential to our satisfaction.
The venue was spot on and all our guests absolutely loved the private garden and workshop. The venue could be decorated loads but looked great with our simple designs. If you wanted a more insta wedding it would hold that too.
Food was delicious and the guests loved it. Drinks also on point. We really wanted a pub party feeling, and we worked together to achieve that. However, if you wanted a more sophisticated affair, Ann-Marie would make that happen too.
The bridal suite is legendary and was the perfect place for us (and our friends who repeatedly hate crashed us over the weekend).
Ultimately the HM provided us with a once in a life time experience and we wouldn't change anything. I wouldn't even do it again as it wouldn't live up to the first go.
Thank you for sending us into married life with such a bang.
You should definitely consider the HM if you're getting married!!!!!
