I just wanted to pass on my thanks to you and your team for all your hard work to make my Dad’s wake go so smoothly last week.

You made the whole process so easy from start to finish. It took a huge amount of pressure off us all, knowing you had all the arrangements in hand, at such a stressful time.

So many people commented how wonderful the food was and we would all totally agree. The venue and the food were spot on and your team were so lovely.

We still have some of the delicious scones in the freezer at Mum’s – we had some today so you are still feeding us!

Thank you so much for making such a difficult day go as well as it possibly could. We are all truly grateful.

Best regards,

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your help in making Monday such a lovely afternoon for my father-in-law’s friends and family. I really appreciated the time that you gave me when we met, the refreshments were just delicious, you kept us very well supplied in tea and coffee and the room worked so well. We have had many thank you’s and compliments for such a lovely afternoon tea and we feel my father-in-law would have been very proud that he was given such a good send off. I hope we can return to the Lakeview suite for a happier occasion at some stage as it is a beautiful room and very comfortable and well appointed for a gathering. I have recommended it for a “day” function to many friends since! You were also very accessible and easy to communicate with compared to some venues I have used in the past!

Best wishes and thank you again

Thank you for organising and managing Mum’s wake last Friday. Kay and I were delighted with how it all went. As you had advised us, there was plenty of food!! Delicious too.

Many of our guests have commented on what an excellent venue it was and how comfortable, especially given it was the hottest day of the year.

Thank you for your professional, quiet efficiency and all you did behind the scenes to ensure a smooth event.

Best wishes,
Jill and Kay, June 2022

I just wanted to say thank you for hosting my father’s wake on Tuesday 24th August. The venue gave us the opportunity for the guests to mingle, share treasured memories and enjoy the lovely surroundings with delicious food. Your care and attention during the wake was above and beyond our expectations. We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank you to you and your team.

Kind regards

Just to thank you so much for all your hard work to make the Wake after my husband’s funeral so perfect. The food was so beautifully presented and the sandwiches so fresh (not easy on such a warm day). We have heard nothing but glowing comments from family and friends who attended.

Thank you again
