Dine

Our wedding day at The Mansion by Dine was everything we could ever of hoped and dreamed for and more!!! We wish we could do it all over again!! The professionalism and attention to detail by the Dine team was second to none, from the very first enquiry and venue visit, to the menu tastings, to the big day itself. We were so impressed with the team from that first meeting. The Mansion and Dine stood out for us head and shoulders over all the other wedding venues we visited in Leeds and Buckinghamshire..and we visited quite a few! In terms of the venue itself: The Mansion is situated in a beautiful location overlooking of parkland and a lake. There are beautiful ornamental gardens nearby (which are great for photos) as well as the beautiful staircase inside. The Mansion is a short drive away from the centre of Leeds too, so easy to reach for guests/those travelling, with a range of accomodation options around. The team and our Event Manager Harriet were super communicative, supportive, helpful. She’s also just a genuinely lovely person too and really works with you to bring your perfect day to life. Harriet and the Dine team worked so well with all our suppliers; the florist, DJ, brass band, drivers, everyone-she is an absolute superstar and you’ll be in extremely good hands. The day itself ran like clockwork, with efficient, slick service- so professional. The food was served perfectly and professionally and the presentation and quality of the meal was outstanding. We had SO many comments and compliments from our guests about the quality of the day, the food and the service. Out of our 120+ guests, around 50 had dietary requirements, including me. Unlike many wedding venues and wedding we have attended, Dine made sure our guests dietary needs were fully addressed with no fuss. It was all completely seamless and brilliantly managed. In short, we had an excellent experience with Dine. High quality event management and catering are what they do! And they do it very well indeed. We are so very glad we entrusted them with our big day... and we wholeheartedly recommend them.. I genuinely can’t wait to use them for the next family celebration!

Working with Harriet and the Dine team was a fantastically easy choice, they came highly recommended and delivered on that recommendation. The food was fantastic and the evening was well planned and executed. My wife and I were able to spend the whole evening completely care-free and able to enjoy our celebrations as much as possible!

We got married in 2016 at The Mansion in Leeds run by Dine. The day flowed without a problem, everything was so well organised. The day was perfect and I’m so grateful for choosing Dine and having Harriet on hand to help with anything - nothing was too much for them.

Wedding planning is reported to be one of the most stressful times in a person’s life; with Dine this was not the case. We met Harriet around a year before our wedding, when we were lucky enough to see the venue and discuss our needs. We then went back one afternoon to enjoy a menu tasting experience, which confirmed that the food our guests would be served would be delicious and high quality. Harriet kept in contact regularly throughout the time leading up to our big day and responded quickly to any and all of the emails I sent her, no matter how minor or trivial my issues or requests were. She also provided us with a clear and concise break down of costs and a comprehensive schedule for the day. No request was too much trouble and Harriet and the team executed them all on the day without issue. I genuinely felt like I had very little to worry about and could turn up on the day to enjoy getting ready, safe in the knowledge that everything was sorted. Our day went extremely smoothly and many of the guests commented on how lovely the venue and food was and how well the ‘running’ of it went. More than 4 years on, our friends still mention how great they thought our wedding was...and they are correct.

We had the most amazing wedding at the Mansion in Roundhay. Harriet was our wedding planning and we could not have asked for anyone more organised and calm as she was! She made sure everything ran smoothly and that we enjoyed our special day. On the day she took care of all the suppliers and made sure everyone was happy! We cannot thank her and Dine group enough for what they did!

The service was exceptional. The staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough. We saw the venue as many times as needed and the team were with us every step of the way.

My husband and I got married at The Mansion in Leeds and we had Harriet as our wedding co-ordinator through Dine. From the moment we met her we knew we were in safe hands and she cared about the plan for the big day equally as much as we did. It was nice we had just the one person from start to finish and I was very pleased that Harriet would be with us on the day. There was a moment after the photographs when my ear cuff came lose and I was trying to explain to my husband not only what an ear cuff was but how to tighten it when out of nowhere Harriet swooped in and sorted it for me. I hadn't noticed her nearby but she must have been watching out for me. It shows that she was probably doing all sorts of other little things in the background that day which made everything run so smoothly. As they say, it takes a lot of hard work to make something look effortless! A big thank you to the rest of the staff though who were there on the day; they were all very professional but friendly, nicely dressed and happy to help with any requests. The food we had from Dine was delicious, from the canapes at the start of the day, the wedding breakfast (how can chicken taste that good?!) to the individual meal boxes in the evening - these were so cute and everyone loved them. I can honestly say it was just the most perfect day free of drama and stress and everyone had a wonderful time. Thank you Harriet and Dine!

What can we possibly say....what an AMAZING DAY it was!!! Harriet was simply amazing; we discussed everything thoroughly and she made such brilliant suggestions to make our day everything we wanted it to be. Our guests thoroughly enjoyed our day and the food was absolutely 10/10 - it was the best!!! The food service was brilliant; perfectly timed and everyone commented on how truly delicious the food was! We opted to have a draught lager served which was a great option for us and our guests. The Mansion works perfectly as a wedding venue. We got married in February and although it was a drizzly day it did not impact us at all. We still got photos outside and there was plenty of spaces for all of ours guests indoors even when rooms were being changed ready for the evening event. Thank you so much to the entire team for making our day so special!!!! Such special memories that we will treasure forever!

We had an amazing wedding at Howsham Hall in October 2019. It's an incredible venue - the biggest bridal suite in the world (surely!!!), beautiful house and the most wonderful food and service from the Dine team. Craig is great and he leads an excellent team - all of whom were extremely professional and pleasant. Nothing was too much trouble for the Dine team - they really take care to keep Howsham Hall looking absolutely stunning, and we had so many great comments about the food - portions are big and the quality is superb! Dine is a really well-run and smooth operation - and they deliver a truly special service for a special wedding day.
