“It was just perfect and I can’t thank you and all your team at Heart enough for everything you all did to make the day go so smoothly, even though I kept changing my mind on things! Nothing felt too much for you.”
Aimee & Tony
“We had our wedding on Saturday and it couldn’t have gone any better. The venue is absolutely beautiful in a picturesque setting, and we would recommend for anybody to get married here! The staff were absolutely amazing and went above and beyond to make it a perfect day. Natalie was incredible, she made sure the day ran smoothly and even helped me get in to my dress! There wasn’t a single thing that we would have wanted done differently, all of our thoughts and requests were listened to in the lead up to the big day. The DJ was incredible, all of our guests commented on how good the music was and the videos that went with the music on the big screens - the dance floor was full all night! Everybody was saying it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to! We have completely fallen in love with Heart Of England and look forward to going back again and again to enjoy the rest of their facilities.”
