We had an Afternoon Tea at F&M Boardroom as a wedding celebration with 19 guests attending and this was a great experience! Each and every guest thanked us for choosing this venue. The tea and the food were exquisite, we were in safe hands of quite a large team who were taking good care of us throughout the evening. I wanted to thank Ieva separately who helped with all the planning initially. Can't recommend enough!

A bit pricey but absolutely worth it!

We had the best experience with Ieva and her team. From the day we booked the private dining, she has given her hundred percent. Amazing service and food. We had an unforgettable ceremony dinner thanks to Ieva.
