Thank you for everything.
The day was excellent – definitely one to remember.
Obviously, the weather I had ordered helped immensely 😊
The birds inevitably attracted plenty of attention, even from those who had thought it an odd addition to the day, and was a great ice-breaker.
The castle is a superb venue and a lovely backdrop to stage a memorable, individual wedding.

We got married there 28/10/2022
It was amazing! Truly outstanding venue, they made our dreams come true.
Very kind and attentive staff who know exactly what they are doing, armed and ready to help and answer any questions we had, you can tell they enjoy what they do and take pride in their jobs.
Excellent attention to detail, helping us arrange and rearrange decor, they are very generous with food, it was just soo delicious! We went back 2 days later just so we could visit their cafe and eat their food again.
They kept me calm, took control and gave me the time to just enjoy my special day.”
Thank you so much guys.
Nicolle and Chris
