We got married on the 03/05/2025 at the Southgate Mercure Hotel. Aritra was our wedding planner and whilst this was his first time doing a wedding, he went over and above to make sure we had the most special day along side Petra. I cannot fault one part of our wedding day, from start to finish the service we received was exceptional. From a private room to get ready, fresh pastries and smoothies on tap, music to lighten the mood from the start. Every detail was outstanding, the food, the organisation, the cleanliness, the turnaround of the day flowing seamlessly. We were incredibly lucky to get married in sunshine, so the orangery room was perfect for our ceremony and the reception room felt great too. For the price of what was included in our wedding day and the service we received I feel incredibly lucky and would do it all over again in a heart beat.
