The Testimonials

Mr and Mrs Potter

We both just wanted to say the biggest thank you to all the staff involved in Saturday.

The day honestly couldn’t have gone better, or smoother, and we honestly couldn’t find fault in anything that anyone done for us on the day! We didn’t have to chase anything, ask for anything… We didn’t have to lift a finger, which gave us the chance to enjoy the day!

All our master of ceremonies were superb, especially the patience of the lovely guy who was ushering us about on the day (can’t remember his name- sorry!) But he wasn’t pushy or rushing us about, made sure the day stayed on time while letting us enjoy it! They were also very accommodating of Frank the dinosaur, and made sure he made his appearance on time!

Everyone has commented on how amazing the food was, service couldn’t have been better or swifter if you’d have tried- feel the chefs and waiting staff are often overlooked in thank you’s, so please extend our thanks to all of those guys too!

And finally, we need to say probably the biggest thank you to you! Without your help none of Saturday would have been possible, or ran as smoothly as it did! You’ve been absolutely amazing, and totally taken the stress out of the whole process, we’ve enjoyed the whole lead up to the day (which seems rare as most people talk about all the stress haha!) And had the most perfect day!

We honestly cannot thank you all enough, we had more than just a ‘day to remember’- it was honestly the most perfect day we could have asked for!

THANK YOU!

With love,

Mr & Mrs Potter Xx

Mr and Mrs Jones

I would like to say a massive thank you to Amy for arranging our wedding with us, since we live in Spain it was hard to imagine/organise your wedding from skype calls and emails but Amy was very reassuring and help with every aspect of the day. The food and Staff were amazing we truly had a magical day at the maids head hotel .

Thank you and we look forward to coming back to the hotel again very soon.

We had a very special day at the maids head hotel , even though we had a problem with a supplier letting us down last minute Amy and the team worked quickly to provide us with a sweet buffet on the day. We could not be more grateful for the support the staff provided us with this.

Thank you for making our day memorable.

Kind Regards

Mr and Mrs Howard
