Hi Ben,
Good to hear from you, hope you are well and had a good new year.
We had an amazing couple of days in the Cotswolds and we will have a longer honeymoon in the summer to HK, Cambodia and Vietnam.
The wedding was amazing and we cannot thank you and Hogarths enough, everyone said it was the best wedding they had ever been to, the barndance was a huge success!
Thank you again and we hope to see you soon when we next visit Hogarths.
Kind regards,

Hi Ben,
We are both well thank you and had a fantastic honeymoon. Sorry we didn't reply sooner, but it's been very hectic, and it was straight back to work and reality when we got home!
Thank you so much for all your hard work organising our day. We had such a special and memorable day, and we are really glad we chose Hogarths. Could you also pass our thanks onto Adam for doing such a fantastic job of organising us on the day; and the chef for producing such a wonderful menu for us. We had so many complements about the food, even from the most devoted carnivores; and our fussy eaters were catered for perfectly!
Many thanks again, to you and the team at Hogaths for making our day so special.

Hi Janene,
(Brides parents)
Well, the BIG DAY is over and done with, and I think we are just beginning to come back down to earth. Emily & Richard and now sunning themselves in Ibiza and Eleanor, our youngest, is safely back in Korea.
I just wanted to write and express our thanks to all at Hogarths for giving us such a fantastic day last Friday. Everything was perfect and ran so smoothly. I don't think anyone wanted to go home at the end of the evening and kept calling for the band to play "one more." One of Emily's friends said that he had been to a few weddings this year, but "that this beat the lot of them."
Thank you, Janene, for all your help in co-ordinating this wedding and also to Helen for all her assistance on Friday in keeping things running so well. We shall have no hesitation in recommending Hogarths to anyone as an ideal venue for a wedding reception. The perfect setting.
Hope to see you again some time in the future.
With our very best wishes to all at Hogarths.

Siobhan,
Just a note to thank you and all the staff at Hogath's for such a great function on Saturday.
The room looked fabulous, the staff were falling over themselves to be helpful, everyone was complimentary about the food & drink - and even the sun even came out at the end!
The next family party is my Dad's 90th in a couple of years - hopefully we will be back!
Thanks again from all of us.

Hi Ben,
I hope this email finds you well & the wedding season isn't too hectic for you yet.
I just wanted to drop you a line to say a huge thank you to you and all the team who made our post wedding party on the 7th May amazing. Everything was fantastic and exactly what we'd envisaged when we first met you over 2 years ago now!
The team on the day were complete stars, so professional, helpful and an absolute credit to the hotel.
I've returned back to work this week after our honeymoon and all my work colleagues confirmed it was an amazing day at a perfect location. I've had at least 3 couples say they'd like to us the venue for their wedding celebrations so fingers crossed you'll get some repeat business for them!
Unfortunately James & I still haven't managed to sleep over and enjoy the breakfast which I understand from everyone who stopped was amazing so as soon as we get some free time we're going to book in for the night
If you could pass on our thanks to everyone who made the 7th such a great day I'd really appreciate it.
It was a lovely day that we all enjoyed.
I am sure we will come again.
Again,many thanks again for doing such a good job for me.
Thanks again,
Samantha Christian

Dear Ben,
We have just arrived back home after our few days in your neck of the woods. I hope you enjoyed your break.
I was disappointed not to have seen you after all your help. However I was very pleased to have selected what turned out to be the perfect venue
for the event.
The complete privacy of the music room made it possible for us to create the atmosphere we usually have in our home. The easy access to the gardens was ideal for the children to come and go.
The food, which was of a high quality, each course enjoyed without exception, was served at an easy, leisurely pace.
I was particularly pleased with the sevice from the staff .You had set the mark and all members of the staff could not have been more helpful and were particularly good with the children.
It was a lovely day that we all enjoyed.
I am sure we will come again.
Again,many thanks again for doing such a good job for me.
Best Wishes,
Anne Redhead

Dear Siobhan & Team,
Paul & I would like to thank you for all your inspiration, hard work and support over the last 6 months on planning our wedding.
I'm sure you'll agree the day went extremely well, and we were delighted that it turned out even better than we imagined despite last minute panics!
We had some fantastic feedback about the day. Everybody loved it and the beautiful setting.
So thank you once again for all you've done, we could not have done it without you!
Hope you are all keeping well and hope it won't be too long before we visit again
Love Angela & Paul x

Siobhan,
(Attended Mothers Day Lunch 3/4/11)
Meal went extremely well; both of my parents loved their meal and were really appreciative of your flexibility. We found the atmosphere really good.
The staff (management and waiting) couldn't do enough to please us, very helpful and courteous too! All of my party commented on this and also the high quality of the food served.
Finally, having had this good experience it has provided us again with the reassurance for Emma and Steve's wedding and what we hope will be a fantastic day with Hogarth's help
Please pass on my thanks to all involved for Sunday
Regards

Siobhan,
Just a little note of thanks for the brilliant job that you did being our wedding planner.
We felt confident that with your help our day would be amazing and it really was!
Thank you for the advice, prompt responses and reassurance. We felt lucky to have made such a good decision to let Hogarths be the setting for our perfect day. We know that you were not able to be there on the day but it did really go beyond our expectations with how brilliant it was.
Many of our guests made very positive comments about both the service and the venue.
We often had the question of 'how did you find this place?
So thank you so much for the hard work you put in to providing us our perfect day!

Hi Ben
It was a great night thank you. I have had lots of positive feedback and thanks from everyone and not one single negative comment.
The food quality was a real hit and the DJ's choice of music. It was amazing as soon as the music started the dance floor was full and it stayed like that all night. I also had lots of comments of how pleasant it was that the waiting staff knew everyone's food choices.
Thanks to you and all of your team for a great party. The bar and waiting staff were outstanding very patient and pleasant.
Very many thanks again.
Best wishes,

Dear Siobhan,
This is not an official communication but a personal one from me.
I just wanted to say how very enjoyable today's luncheon was - the food was excellent as was the attention and professionalism of the staff. At the last minute we had a few cancellations and one lady turned-up who we didn't know about!! All was quietly and efficiently dealt with by Anne Clarke and the rest of the staff without any fuss.
Thank you all very much; it was greatly appreciated by everyone I spoke to.
Compliments of the Season to you all,

Hi Ben,
I just wanted to say a big thank you to you and the team at Hogarths for a wedding that went perfectly !
Thanks to your skills and guidance I was able to make sure everything was in place for the big day and nothing went wrong - believe it or not !
Helen was fantastic and I felt very comfortable handing over to her on the day so that I could finally relax.
I can understand why you work in this industry - everybody I've dealt with has been wonderful and it's been a great experience.
Thank again Ben ! Couldn't have done it without you !!
Take care

Hey Ben,
Hogarths was the most amazing venue for us to hold our wedding reception. I wanted some pretty weird and wonderful things for our wedding and Ben was amazing in helping me to achieve my dream.
It is a phenomenal place and every one of my guests said how wonderful our wedding was, in large due to the friendly and approachable staff and the beautiful way in which Hogarths was set up.
Ben and the staff at Hogarths made me feel like anything was possible and like I was the most important Bride in the world - and isn't that exactly what every girl wants?!
The day itself was fantastic and Adam and the rest of the staff made sure that everything ran perfectly - I literally couldn't have asked for any more.
Thank you to Ben, Adam and everyone who helped to make my dream come true and to make my favourite fantasy wedding a reality! I owe you all so much!
Thank you thank you thank you!
All our love

Siobhan - Dolphin/Littlebury Wedding 7th August
The dust has settled and the "combatants" have been sent away. I thought I would drop you a line to thank you for all the help you gave my wife and me during the run up to the wedding. It was always appreciated and the amount of work you undertook became apparent on the day itself.
The venue, food. accommodation were excellent, but the day was truly made by your staff, so well organised and led by Helen. They were always attentive but never obtrusive, they all made us feel very welcome and went that extra "mile" to attend to our needs.
All in all, in my opinion, there was nothing I could fault about the day, a very professional but friendly service.
Many many thanks for all you and all the staff did, it made my day perfect and the happy couple were made even more happy by the attention you lavished upon us all.
Regards

Hi Ben, Helen and All staff at Hogarths
We just wanted to say a huge thank you for making our day so magical. The day was perfect for us from start to finish and a lot of that was down to the efficiency of the staff.
Our guests have raved about the location, food and staff and have said what an amazing day it was. We have to agree.
We fell in Love with Hogarths as soon as we saw it and it just kept getting better and better. We could not of got married anywhere else, it was just perfection. We are only sad that it is all over but we are so pleased of all the wonderful, magical memories that we now have.
We will see you all for Valentines dinner, anniversaries and for any other excuse I can find to return to our beautiful venue!
Thanks again for a great experience,
Love Toni & Howard Stokes xxxx

Hi Jan
Firstly I'd like to thankyou for your help and coordination of our wedding and building up to the day.
On the actual day, It was completely faultless and please give such big thanks to Flo for running the day, he was so attentive and made sure everything was where it should be and when! He did an excellent job!
Staff did an amazing job of getting all 150 plates of food out with piping hot food being served. Bar staff were on the ball!
Daz and I can't thank Hogarths enough for your help in making our day so special! It was certainly one to remember!
All our guests have said it's one of the best weddings they have ever been to! I've even given myself a big pat on the back!!!
I'm sure we will return for a meal in the future so hopefully I will see you soon
All the best,
Daz and Kelly xxx

"The place to celebrate your civil partnership"
My partner and I chose Hogarths as the venue for our civil partnership, chosen mainly for the beautiful Island venue where you can have your ceremony outdoors we cannot fault any element of the experience.
Throughout the planning, Ben - the wedding director - was there to guide and advise.
On the day Helen was around to ensure everything went swimmingly. All of the staff were friendly and attentive and the venue and food were all excellent.
We would strongly recommend this venue for anyone planning a special celebration.

Hi Ben
Just a quick note to let you know we had a fabulous wedding at Hogarth's on Jan 2nd.
We AND the guests fully enjoyed themselves.
The service of the staff was OUTSTANDING and the real feature of the day. Whenever we had a problem eg Spring Bed was still a double rather than a twin or the coeliac provision for the evening, it was dealt with expediently and with great style.
So on behalf of my wife and I (Ican say that now) I would like to thank you for your help and professionalism.
Thanks
