Testimonials
Let's Do It!
Kind Words
My wife and I will be eternally grateful for the exceptional service we received from Catherine and her team. From the outset, Catherine was professional, made the whole organising process stress – free whilst maintaining a fun environment.
We provided Catherine with a theme for my 50th birthday celebration and she provided great insights ranging from different food types and cocktails through to furniture and props. The whole evening came together perfectly thanks to Catherine and her team creating an amazing birthday celebration and some spectacular memories.
If you are considering an event, look no further than Catherine and her team.
Hi Catherine,
Thank you so much for your amazing email. It made us both smile like crazy and got us emotional again!
Words really don’t do justice (we both need something other than words!) to describe how incredible the wedding was. I’ve been telling everyone it was better than the best day I could even imagine, and so much of that is down to you. We loved having you as part of it, we’re so touched you wanted to work our wedding and went out of your way to do so. Seeing your smiling face throughout the day meant we know we had nothing to worry about.
All the staff and team were brilliant, so many people commented on you, the waiting staff, the bar staff, everyone.
I love that you’ve still got your wristband on…..me too 🙂
It really doesn’t feel like this should be coming to an end. The planning and the day were all awesome, I wish we could keep going.
We really feel like we’ve made a wonderful friend in you and we’d hate to lose touch.
Catherine, again, thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Life is made of small moments like these 🙂
Kind Regards,
Phil Curtis
Hi Catherine,
On behalf of Yvette and myself, I wanted to say a huge thank-you for hosting Cam & Laura’s wedding. We had so much happiness, love, tears and joy, everyone loved the wedding.
The venue was stunning and was the perfect location for a perfect wedding.
I was a little unsure about Cam and Laura’s choice of BBQ sharing plates but they got the choice spot on as it allowed everyone to talk to each other while passing round the food – it was brilliant.
Of course it helps when the food was prepared perfectly.
The gin bar looked great and having three locations for our guests (main hall, dance floor and outside) catered for everyone’s needs.
Breakfast in the morning was just what was needed to ensure we were sober for the drive home.
The only tiny minor constructive feedback I could give is the mattresses in the rooms probably need changing, several of the overnight guests (including Yvette and I) didn’t have the best of sleeps.
Finally to end on a high you and the rest of the Farbridge staff worked extremely hard, no request was turned down, in particular serving tea and coffee late into the night was much appreciated by the older guests. We have lost count of the number of our guests saying its the best wedding they have ever been to – can’t get a better complement than that.
Many many thanks for making lifetime memories for Cam, Laura, Julia, Yvette and I.
Regards
Alan
Hi Catherine
I just wanted to say a huge thanks from my self and our families for the fantastic day we had on Thursday 5.9.19 at our daughters wedding. You and the staff do an amazing job. I can’t thank you and the team enough for turning our daughters dream day into a reality. Nothing was too much trouble for you and any queries or concerns we had throughout the day you sorted quickly and reassured us.
Wishing you and the team all the best for the future
Regards and thanks

Hi Catherine
Apologies for the delay in replying – we’ve just returned from 2 weeks in Cuba!
Well where do we start? We want to say a HUGE thank you to yourself, Sue, Simon and everyone at Farbridge who has been involved in our wedding both in the run-up and on the day. We had the most incredibly amazing day, and felt well looked after by you and your team. Both sets of parents and all the guests also had a wonderful time.
Hi Catherine,
Many thanks for your lovely message. We had a wonderful time in Paris after the wedding, and spent a significant portion of the time reminiscing about the day! We enjoyed the day immensely and just wish it could have gone on for a bit longer! Thank you so much to you and the team for the organisation and delivery of the day. We had a lot of comments from our guests about how well organised it all was and what a wonderful venue it is. We have put a little something in the post for you, so please look out for it in the next day or so. That’s very odd that the chalk board didn’t turn up. It’s seems like someone nabbed it in the middle of the night! If only we’d picked it up on the evening in our taxi, which we almost did!
Wishing you a very Happy Christmas and New Year!
Best wishes
Clare and Matthew
Hi Catherine
Happy New Year to and all the gang at Farbridge also! What a wonderfully kind message. We had a fantatstic Christmas as a newly married couple, very magical and it felt like we were in a little bubble of love! What a shock to the system it is to be back at work.
Thank you so much to you and all the team at Farbridge, we were told by someone before the wedding “you’ll want for nothing at Farbridge” and that was indeed the case. You and Sue on the day didn’t stop and truly made sure everything ran to plan, I didn’t have a care in the world other than enjoying everything unfolding around us. So for that we are truly thankful.
Hello Catherine!
Thank you so, so much for your email and I’m so, so sorry that my reply is so behind! Today is my first real day back in the office after Christmas between various annual leave and site meetings, so I’m so sorry for not acknowledging your lovely email and kind words sooner! It’s still very full on with my family here from Aus, though they go back on Wednesday so Nick and I are cramming as much in as we can!
Firstly, I hope that you had an amazing Christmas and New Year!!! And indulged in lots of mince pies and the odd gin here and there!!
Thank you so much again for all of your support that you have been able to offer throughout our planning process, you were the absolute dream to have by my side. I couldn’t think of anyone better, more supportive or thoughtful than you to oversee our day!! I have many, many photos that I would love to share with you! I don’t know why I haven’t thought to sooner! I’ll make that my next job 😊 !!!
It’s also been so lovely getting to know you along the way and I wanted to wish you the best of luck (in what I hope) is your imminent move! I wish you all the luck in the future with your new home and so much joy and happiness.
Also the biggest thank you to the entire team who pulled together to make our day so brilliant. We caught up with a lot of friends and family over Christmas and have had so many compliments on the food, the service and just generally the hospitability of everyone involved!!
Happy New Year! We hope you had a lovely Christmas.
We cannot thank you enough for your support, guidance, patience and care over the last 2 and a half years (23 July 2018 to be exact)! We have been on an amazing journey with you personally as well as the rest of the team at Farbridge.
We were made to feel special on our first visit to the venue and ever since. Our day was different to how we originally imagined yet you were still able to make it incredibly special for us both and we can’t thank you enough.
The whole day was perfect, you made us and our family feel so welcome which was a miracle considering the situation we are in. We appreciate you being with us right to the end, the intimate meal in the evening was a wonderful way for us to end the day.
We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Farbridge to our friends (and have done so already since they’ve seen our wedding photos!) We hope when restrictions lift we may be able to return and have a belated celebration if you’ll have us!
Good luck for 2021, we wish you all well.
Hello lovely Catherine!
Hope you’re keeping well and relaxing in between your busy days!
Just thought I’d pop some photos of our beautiful day over now we have received our professional photos as the barn looked truly gorgeous.
Once again Thankyou so much for everything, our day was absolutely perfect and wouldn’t have been possible without you!
Wish we could do it all again!!

Hi Catherine,
Right let’s give this a go without crying….
From the first time I saw Farbridge online 6 years ago (yes before we were even engaged!) I knew that’s where I wanted to get married. I rang the day we got engaged, booked a viewing and didn’t even view anything else before booking you guys! Crazy but just got this gut feeling that this is the place I wanted us to get married and I’m so so glad we picked Farbridge.
We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding coordinator, from the first time we met I felt ‘safe’ with you 🤣 and knew that my OCD organised ways would be matched & I wouldn’t have to worry about a thing. I’m so glad you made it back for the wedding because I don’t know what I would have done without you.
Every last detail I had in my mind on the tables / outside / ceremony room you just got it and knew exactly what I envisaged. (Maybe my neurotic spreadsheets helped? 🤪)
Through me crying over zoom, to the last minute changes to gate crashers on the day (Ffs 🤣) you handle everything like it was an absolute breeze. I can’t believe we got the day we always planned to have through many ups and downs.
We have had nothing but compliments about the venue, the staff and the food – omg the food. I’ve been told by SO many people it’s the best wedding food they have ever ever eaten. To cater for that many people and provide the most delicious food without it feeling like mass catering is unbelievable.
I cannot thank you enough and will be eternally grateful for making the best day of our lives (so far!) so so wonderful.
So much love to you and everyone who made our day so special we will never ever forget it.
