The day was wonderful, made extra special by your staff's attention to detail. We all had reservations as you do on such a big occasions. Totally unnecessary, everything went without a hitch.
Ceremony started on time as arranged. We were called to sit down for our meal at the time specified. The buffet was delivered as stated. The food was amazing, plenty of it on all three courses. Specials for those with dietary needs. Buffet was amazing the choice much more than ever anticipated.
