Newlywed testimonial

“From the first email correspondence to our meal tasting, to the day itself and even wee messages and emails in between, they have gone above and beyond and made sure nothing was too much bother!

“The food was INCREDIBLE, and we had multiple guests come up to use throughout the night saying how it was the best wedding meal they’d ever had! We’d agree! We were blown away with it, as well as the professionalism of the entire team on the day.” – Eilidh & Connor, Married at Gordon Castle
