Happy couple married in April

The Rose and Crown, fantastic venue

Absolutely fantastic from the start of our wedding to the end, Sue is just amazing, nothing is too much trouble. Communication is fabulous and no question is stupid. Sue made the planning of our wedding so easy, we were able to talk through options, Sue gave advice but always kept in mind what our vision was. The venue is beautiful and amazing value. Would totally recommend attending the open days. The Rose and Crown is a perfect venue for a beautiful wedding.
