I wish we could do it all again!

Hi Chloe, We are back! We have had the most amazing two weeks. The first week was in a hotel called Kasbah Bab Oricka in Morocco, up in the Atlas Mountains which was just unbelievable. Then we had a week in Portugal on the Atlantic coast. It is quite hard coming back to reality after the last three weeks. I want to say a huge thank you to you, Julie, Neil and the team for making the 10th such a memorable day. Everything went so well and seamlessly. The team couldn't have been nicer. Neil was a complete star as there were a couple of wobbles at one point with the table plan and he also helped get everyone back inside for pudding as there was a bit of a smoking exodus after the main course. The champagne was perfectly cold, so Barney was a happy bunny! The canapes were yummy as was supper. We were so lucky with the weather and it seemed like our wedding kick started the beginning of the heatwave! All was fine with the buses and the traffic was clear so I think everyone arrived about 30 mins after the service which was brilliant. The photo's haven't come back yet, but when they do, I will definitely send some over in case you would like to use them. Thank you again so much for such an amazing day and a really fun planning process. The whole experience will be one which we will never forget - I wish we could do it all again!

Apart from laying on the perfect weather ....

Dear Chloe We are just home from the celebrations for Anna and Matt's wedding on Friday. We would like to thank you and your staff for all the wonderful work you did at Fulham Palace to make the day absolutely perfect for us all. Apart from laying on the perfect weather, we found from the moment we arrived that you were on hand to help and guide us through the day. The arrangements for the ceremony, champagne reception, the meal, and the evening went without a hitch. The food was delicious and the service throughout impeccable. At the end of the evening you were still there to arrange taxis and help to carry out wedding gifts. There are always stresses and strains before these occasions but all our fears were ungrounded and we are all looking back on the most perfect day. Please do give our sincere thanks to all involved in such a splendid result! kind regards Una Dady and family

The food and the service was amazing!

Hi Chloe, I hope you are doing well and that you are a bit more relaxed now that July is over! We are back from our "honeymoon" (my family came along, so we rented a house with 10 people) I wanted to thank you for all your work on our wedding and tell you that everything went according to plan on the day and even better! You were on every detail and it was a pleasure to know that you were there looking after everyone. We have had complements from a lot of guests saying that the food and the service were amazing! Please thank your entire team who worked on our wedding and let them know that they did a GREAT job and that they made our special day, even more special! Also let us know if there are any websites where we can leave our feedback, I know brides pay a lot of attention to the reviews :) HUGE THANKS! All the best, Loli

Everyone commented on how well our day was run

Thank you so much for all your incredible work for our wedding this summer. Despite being on the other side of the world I never had to worry about anything you were involved with because you were so organised. Doing the food tasting with you was so much fun and your calm and friendly manner was so appreciated on the big day itself. Everyone commented on how well our day was run - hats off to you Chloe!

Chloe and the team completely rocked our world

I cannot express how amazing Chloe and the team. Everything from initial ideas stage, through to food tasting and the big day was just wonderful. Chloe and the team completely rocked our world and even took care of setting up the venue for us. I'm not sure Chloe ever sleeps as she always replied to everyone of my emails without fail and held our hand through the whole experience. The venue itself was so beautiful and magical, all of our guests are still raving about the venue and the wonderful food.

A spectacular success!

Dear Chloe We just wanted to write you a proper thank you for all of your hard work over the last year, helping to make our wedding day such a spectacular success. It felt like we had been planning it for years (!), so it was always going to be a challenge to see if the reality could ever match our expectations. But we both were absolutely overjoyed with every aspect of the day - it all ran so smoothly from start to finish and we both really appreciated how much care and attention you paid to ensuring we had everything we needed. Julie, thank you also for putting together such a great menu - the food all tasted fantastic and was beautifully presented. Our guests are still talking about how much they loved everything! The scallops were a complete hit, and the evening buffet went down a treat. The G&T mini cornettos were also the perfect endnote for a sunny drinks reception, what a brilliant suggestion. I'm sure you guys haven't had much of a chance to sit back and enjoy yourselves in the height of wedding season, but we just wanted to tell you how much we appreciated all your effort, diligence and care. It was a day we'll never forget. Best wishes, Dan & Rebecca
