We had our wedding reception at the Cresset last week, it was a brilliant event

We had our wedding reception at the Cresset last week, it was a brilliant event. Alison who arranged everything was wonderful, all the staff are very friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was great, much better quality then you would of thought for a buffet. It was well organised everyone knew what to do. Brilliant event, would definitely use again.
