The staff on the day were amazing

Tip Top Venues is a stunning location with the most amazing, helpful staff! Helen & Mikayla helped with every part of the wedding planning process: offering advice, suggesting suppliers and quickly responding to all of my questions. The venue was beautifully set up with the in-house stylist who took the time to understand my vision. The staff on the day were amazing, they worked incredibly hard to make sure everything ran smoothly and to ensure that everyone had a good time.

I honestly can't find the words

I honestly can't find the words to express how grateful we are to Mikayla and the team at Tip Top Venues for making our wedding day so magical! We had our wedding in July, so it's taken me a while to write this review, which tells you a lot about my organisation style! Nothing was too much trouble, Mikayla was so responsive to our MILLIONS of emails with random questions. We have beautiful memories of our special day, and Mikayla and Tip Top Venues are the ones to thank for that!

Words won't do this venue Justice!

Words won't do this Venue justice! The location is breathtaking and views to die for. Mikayla went above and beyond to help make the day so special and all staff on the day couldn't do enough for us. People told me that planning your wedding is stressful, but with all the advice and suggestions for different suppliers made it easy. I've had so many compliments about the day from how relaxed it felt to how hard the staff worked making the day perfect.

Wow! Brilliant day celebrating my daughter’s wedding, fabulous venue, great hosts and very helpful and caring. Thoroughly recommend. All family & friends enjoyed a fun-filled, amazing day. 👍🏻 💕xx

Best Day Ever

We had our wedding at Tip Top Venues in Sept 2021 and it was simply perfect. When I first met with the team they couldn't be more friendly and helpful to help us plan for our big day, from recommending suppliers and providing examples of how the day should run they were very supportive and happy to answer any questions we had. On the day of the wedding all the staff were super helpful, friendly and felt like guests at our wedding. Our day was everything we hoped for and more and that was down to our venue and the team at tip top.
