Wedding Reception · 50 guests
· June 2026
We loved everything about Fidelio. Ash and the team were incredibly attentive and supportive throughout the entire process, from the initial planning stages to the day of our wedding reception.
For our guests, we chose canapés followed by a sit-down dinner, accompanied by a pianist and bassist. The atmosphere was perfect, the food was delicious, and the catering was exceptional. We had a very international guest list, and every single guest commented on how much they enjoyed the experience.
Fidelio provided exactly the kind of warm, intimate, and memorable celebration we were hoping for. It was the perfect wedding reception for us, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice.

We are so glad that we a) discovered and b) selected Fidelio for our wedding party venue. We opted for the canapés and small plates standing reception for 85 people, although there were also tables and plenty of space for people to sit and eat their food. The whole team was delightful, from the first viewing to the party itself and we had copious feedback from our guests about how great the staff were. We really appreciated the atmosphere created by Ash and the team, making the whole event feel really relaxed and personal whilst being highly attentive to our guests (from the youngest to the oldest), with everything running efficiently. As the general manager, Ash could not have been more patient, flexible and accommodating during the planning. The food, wine and cocktails were delicious and plentiful, the décor was superb meaning no need for additional decorations and we strongly believe we could not have picked a better place.

The venue is beautiful and the service was impeccable. Ash was very attentive and helped us organise a perfect wedding day. He responded to our many queries in the lead up to the big day and was very flexible when it came to our availability for tastings. The day went by very smoothly and all the guests loved the venue and the food.

I recently hosted a leaving event at Fidelio, and it couldn’t have gone better.
Ash was fantastic from start to finish. He completely understood the vibe I was hoping for and went above and beyond to make it special for my guests and me. Nothing was too much trouble, everything felt easy, relaxed, and genuinely well looked after.
The food was great, the space is beautiful and cosy, and the whole evening just flowed. It felt intimate without being formal, and special without being overdone.
I would 100% recommend this venue for a party or special event.
