From when we first enquired about a wedding to the moment we checked out the morning after our wedding, the staff team were amazing. They were professional and helpful every step of the way, which helped to take the stress out of planning for us. The fact that they had such good suppliers included within their packages was perfect for us. The flowers and lighting was organised and delivered with such little fuss. Overall it meant that we could enjoy our day totally relaxed.
