"Tony and I would like to say a huge thank you to everyone involved in making our wedding the most wonderful day ever. From the very first visit to leaving on the Sunday morning, a married couple, we could not fault the service, professionalism and friendliness of everyone we encountered. The attention to detail, in the Dimples lounge with the T lights and twinkly sprinkles made it look so beautiful. The food was delicious and was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone, we are just sorry that there was so much left at the end of the evening. We would particularly like to thank Wendy who helped us every step of the way with the planning, and the lady and gentleman who coordinated the day. You were all brilliant. Once again thank you all so much."
Mr & Mrs Voyle
