"Molly was our wedding planner and from start to finish she was spot on, she gave her everything and then some!"
Cons:
"We were passed between various wedding coordinators and very much felt like we were just another wedding to them."
"Simply put they were lacking the niceties because we were just another wedding they were churning out."
"Awful experience for my poor friends wedding last year as the staff failing to bring any of the pre paid bubbles before or during the speeches."
"No music! we had to supply it all in this day & age, even had to supply our own wire adaptor for an iPhone."
"Biggest thing for me looking back is no speakers outside, we got married outside the bride and bridesmaids walked down the aisle all you could hear is feet and dresses dragging on the floor and barely hearing the music, made the whole part of walking down the aisle less emotional with little to no sound :("

"The food surpassed our expectations and all the staff are polite and friendly."
Cons:
"Let down by the big and i mean big wasp nest that was extremely active that stung several kids."
"However, the downside was the DJ they provided, he played poor music and did not listen to our song requests."
"Be prepared to not have centerpieces included, bare tables and no toasting drinks when the dishwasher has broken and the venue doesn’t take the initiative to source alternative glasses."
"Also, our evening guests were not served drinks."
"On one occasion me and my husband were locked outside in the pouring rain as no one was answering the door."
