We hosted our wedding reception here and have no hesitation in recommending to anyone considering hosting here as well. Aside from the natural charm of the architecture, the staff helped us in creating a vibrant atmosphere and ensuring everything ran smoothly on the night.
We had around 90 guests, and utilising the main bar and mezzanine level gave us ample room to socialise, dance and move around freely without feeling too crowded, or too spaced apart. We had the DJ booth set up in the main bar, and our photobooth upstairs, encouraging guests to move between areas without anything feeling intrusive. The booths and seating throughout allowed us and our guests to have space to retreat or find quieter moments throughout the night
We were totally taken care of in terms of our catering and drinks and were able to create a bespoke set for our night using a mixture of the canape and platter menu, bar tab and pre-purchased wines. These were delivered with precision against our run sheet, and the cocktails were definitely a huge hit.
Something that stood out for us on the night was how swiftly they helped in getting additional items out on the floor that weren't originally included in our amounts.
