- MMary J25/02/2025Amazing support from ErikaAmazing support from ErikaWe chose the Sessions House for our wedding reception as we wanted somewhere with character and we wouldn't be at risk of the British weather - especially given a December wedding! We were thrilled with our time there - and working with Erika before the event was really good as we managed to plan everything. The place was done up with amazing Christmas decorations - which is exactly what we wanted - but Erika also made sure that the small touches that we wanted doing were done how we agreed.
