Loved the space, the lighting, the modern decor, the kitchen area. I fell in love with it right away. The communication was great, and the team were fantastic on the day.
There was nothing I didn't like.

The team at Kings House are brilliant and helpful, the whole day went without a hitch and I appreciated their patience with the various things we had going on across the day. The space is fab with great lighting, audio, and facilities.
We had 150 people in the space and it felt like just a little too many - I think 200 would have made things cramped and unsafe.
