More family than staff

The people who will make your day feel like home.

Why It Feels Different

The things that actually matter

No buzzwords, just the real reasons couples choose us.

Truly family-run

Owned and run by the McInnes family, not a faceless group. The people you meet are the people who care how your day turns out.

Cooked fresh, on the day

Nothing bought in or reheated. Head Chef John and the kitchen prepare everything that morning, much of it from the orchards around you.

One coordinator, start to finish

The same friendly face from your first viewing to your last dance. No being passed around, no repeating yourself.

Dogs are family too

Your four-legged best friend is welcome on the day, ring bearer, guest of honour, or simply there for the cuddles.
