"Nobody upsold us anything. When we asked about chair covers Ruth said the chairs were fine and we should spend the money on the wine, which is the single best bit of advice we got all year."

Testimonials
What couples say afterwards
Written to us in the weeks after their weddings, and used here with their permission.
"We had sixty people on one table on a Wednesday in May and it cost less than half a Saturday. The two nights were the thing though — the Tuesday evening, with everyone arriving, was our favourite part of the week."
"Our families cooked. Nadia put the kitchen through a supplier check six weeks out and then put two of her own staff on service, so my mother got to sit down and eat her own food."
"December, pouring rain, 140 people, and the room looked better than any summer wedding we have been to. We turned the heating on the night before and nobody wore a coat."
