A & W

Happy couple married in September

April 2023

A & W Wedding

We wanted to say thank you to you and the team at Above the Bay/FGC. Our wedding was just what we had wanted - better than I had anticipated, even - and the excellent service we received was most definitely part of that. From our conversations, I can say that our guests very much enjoyed and appreciated the setting. The bar service and all the support we received more generally was perfect throughout the whole evening. The good humour and helpfulness of everyone working that evening was great!
