It was simply perfect
We are honestly so so happy with how the day went, it was simply perfect and far better than we could have ever imagined. Please can you pass our sincere thanks on to all of the staff who were simply amazing on the day and could not do enough for our guests and us. Chloe, Ben, Charis, Emily - there are simply to many of the staff to mention but a special note should be said to Ben who went above and beyond - at one stage he even helped getting Megan’s shoes back on! We would also like to say a massive thank you to you. You’ve been so helpful throughout the entire process keeping us on track and organised. Sorry for not always being the quickest to respond but thank you for your continued understanding. Lainston House will always be a special place for us and I can assure you, we will be back very soon!

There's no words enough in the English language that we could use to explain how grateful we are
There's no words enough in the English language that we could use to explain how grateful we are for how special you and your team made our day. We honestly had the most perfect day (despite how fast it went)! It was everything we could have wished for and more. The whole day ran so smoothly and we have Ben to thank for this - he was so highly spoken about after our wedding. He was honestly incredible. We are incredibly lucky to have had you on our journey with us to help plan our special day. From the moment we arrived on the Wednesday, we were so well looked after and made to feel so relaxed too. We had a lovely meal with our close friends and family on the Wednesday night which we were lucky enough to have our own dining room. The whole day on the 15th was perfect and ran smoothly (despite me being late but we can't control that ha!). Our breakfast with the wedding party on the Friday was the perfect way to sit and reminisce too whilst eating the most incredible food.

We certainly had the day we have always dreamed of
Hi Sophie , We certainly had the day we have always dreamed of and that was only possible due to the hard work of you and your team who have made us feel so special both in the planning and on the big day itself ! Guests said the whole day that it was the perfect venue and that the food, staff, ect were all amazing and that they too have had an amazing day ! We just wanted to say a special thank you to you as-well - you have been amazing from day one ! so informative and professional throughout, your kindness, amazing communication and your patients in dealing with our many questions and room changes 😂 Please pass on our thanks to Ben and George who helped our big day go so smoothly and kept the guests well entertained and topped up on drinks throughout the evening ! Best wishes and thank you again Martha and Ben

Lainston House will forever hold a special place in our hearts
We want to take the time to express our sincere thanks to each and every individual who played a part in our special day, both in the run up to 4th May and the day itself. Put simply, it was perfect. We have always said that you guys always go above and beyond and Saturday was no different. Sophie, thank you for everything you have done over the last year and a bit. You have made the process so easy and been on hand to support at every step and we are so happy we got to see you on Saturday so that you could also see all the hard work you had invested. We have to give special thanks to Ben and George for coordinating the day and making everything run smoothly, they were both attentive and committed to making our day as special as it possibly could be. Nick must also get a shout out for saving Tom’s jacket buttons twice as well as my mothers outfit. No request was beyond him and his commitment to service was clear throughout the day. Please do pass our thanks on to everyone within the team, you all made the day one to remember and we can assure you we will be regular visitors in the future, especially for those Asian inspired burgers and samosa’s which were a hit with the guests! Thank you once again for making our dreams come true. Lainston House will forever hold a special place in our hearts.

Describe the best wedding that happened at Lainston House?

We have seen all sorts here at Lainston House, from a helicopter arrival to fairground dodgems and carrousel's on the front oval!

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

We will have loads to share with you along the way, but one I regularly give to our couples is that this is your special day so pick the things that are important to you as a couple instead of thinking what your guests will like.

What’s your favourite personal touch you’ve seen at a wedding?

We once had a couple whose table themes were their favourite books, they had the book on each table and made confetti made from the pages from those books, such great attention to detail.
