Best wedding food I've ever tasted!Best wedding food I've ever tasted!
We were lucky enough to be guests at a wedding here earlier this year and I can honestly say it was the best food we have ever had at a wedding (better than our own wedding!)

We fell in love with the venue at the first glance! It has a history. The decor has warming colours, everything sets with a taste and in style. The staff were really friendly and smiley. They helped us with some last minute decorations. We cherish those memories and we’re glad with our venue choice. We fell in love with the venue at the first glance! It has a history.

Dear Simon, Abigail & team, We just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU! for everything you did to make our wedding day so spacial. It was a wonderful day and the venue was perfect. We loved using the gardens for the reception and garden games and the many rooms inside worked so well in the evening. The food was delicious and the presentation of the tables was beautiful. We really appreciate the time you put in before the day too, answering our many questions and taking the time to thoroughly go through the plans for the day. Hope it didn't take too long to clear up the confetti!

Everyone was so helpful, professional and calm in the run-up to the wedding and during the day. We couldn’t have asked for better. The food was just fantastic, great flavours and textures, pleasantly and discreetly served and greatly enjoyed by all. The Mansion House itself is a wonderful venue and looked, as always, superb. I love it! The Russian and Kazakh guests were particularly impressed. Many , many thanks to all.
