Wedding Reception · 80 guests · October 2025
We loved how easy they made everything seem, even when there were curveballs on the day. The food was unreal and our guests were all commenting on how good the food was, which was important to us. With guests able to spill out onto the street, the glass windows made it still feel like everyone was together whether they were inside or outside. It was a perfect venue for our wedding.
Couldn’t fault anything.

We had our wedding reception at The Elgin and it was perfect! The staff were amazing — they followed all my instructions beautifully and the decorations looked just how I’d imagined. The food was absolutely delicious and everyone had a fantastic time. Thank you to the whole team for making our day so special!
Nothing at all!

Wedding · 70 guests · September 2025
The Elgin hosted our wedding in September. We had a great experience from start to finish. Throughout the planning, the team, especially Cara and Caroline, were so accommodating and helpful. We enjoyed a lovely menu tasting ahead of the day and they accommodated all of our requests and completely captured what we wanted. On the day, the venue looked beautiful and the events team and staff were incredible, everything ran so smoothly and all of our guests had an amazing time! Can’t recommend them enough, thank you for all your help in making our wedding perfect!
