Wedding venue

We were married at the Rising Sun at the end June, being able to pay in installments really helped.
Karen the wedding coordinator was incredible, kept us calm, gave us exactly the day we wanted, and helped us do it "our way".
The venue looked beautiful on the day, everyone loved the food and the views are spectacular!
