Testimonial
Well, what a fab time we had! Lindsey and Rob made sure they had done all their homework to ensure that we had a wonderful, and memorable day. So much effort was put into it by the staff, even the night before with 6 of us sorting out the bunting for half an hour! On the day, they all made sure that The Wessex looked fabulous. The Cathedral grounds, and venues are, of course, beautiful, but it wouldn’t matter if the staff didn’t offer such dedicated service, but they surpassed themselves. We were both so happy, and pleased with the day. Everybody who came thoroughly enjoyed it, and there were compliments galore about everything. The venues, the food, everything! Gabrielle & Paul x
