September
Wedding at Powerscourt House
I am a real romantic at heart and I think the season that evokes it more than any other is Autumn! The crisp clear days, the frost kissed grass and the fantastic patchwork of colour!
Gillian and Alan Carroll were married at Powerscourt in September 2013 - here's what they had to say;
Firstly I
would like to thank you for everything you did to make our wedding day go as
smoothly as it did.
I can't
praise you enough for all of your help. From when both Gillian and I went to
view Powerscourt as a possible venue for our wedding reception to the day
itself. From the very start you made us feel welcome and that anything was
possible with this dream location and venue.
From the
number of meetings we had you were always accommodating to our wishes and made
us feel at ease throughout the whole process which took a lot a pressure off
both of us.
From giving
us options to where to put the band to what the room would look like on the
day, you painted a very clear picture of what we would see upon our arrival on
our wedding day. We would like to thank you for our tasting day as well, the
food and options you gave us were amazing and you exceeded all of our
expectations. You helped us come up with a fantastic menu with delicious food
that we have received so many compliments about, but this is something we
cannot take the credit for, it was however amazing and we were delighted to
have all the various components that we wanted, including our extra
dessert!
Upon
arrival to Powerscourt Annette was waiting there to instruct the driver of our
car where to park the car. Once we stepped out of the car she was there waiting
with two glasses of champagne. The rest of the Feast staff were at hand to
serve the rest of our guests.
Our
photographer brought the both of us off for our first session of photographs
but once we were finished Annette was waiting there with our favorite canapé.
As the
dinner bell rang the Feast staff ushered our guests into the dining hall but
Annette took us to one side and brought us to our own private room to have a few
moments to ourself before our introduction. Inside the room was a bottle of
champagne and again, our favorite canapé. Nice touch. Annette came to tell us
that it was time to enter the hall but before she opened the door she told us
exactly how to reach our table through all of the people. Throughout the meal
Annette kept a close eye on us and checked every so often that we were ok. She
arrived with the microphone each time we wished to make a speech so we didn't
need to worry about timing.
When it was
time to go the staff were nice enough to contact our hotel to arrange a car to
pick us up.
We have
received nothing but compliments about the venue, the service and especially
the quality of the food.
It was the
attention to detail and the small things that added such special touches to the
service we received from Annette and the staff at Feast on our wedding day. I
could not recommend them enough.
