Really responsive and informative when we had any questions. Were really helpful on the day. Kyle and David were excellent points of contact. The venue is a good size, with affordable add on's. They were really accommodating throughout the process, and helped minimise any planning stress. Thank you so much for everything!
None, they were fantastic. Worth noting that if you have a DJ you will need to bring your own equipment, but they let us know in advance so there were no issues.
