Hi Fiona, I wanted to pass on my thanks to you all - Sam & Rose had the most wonderful wedding day at The Officers Mess on Saturday. Please pass on my thanks to Warren, he was amazing and so accommodating the day prior and on the actual wedding day, the food was delicious I could not fault it, the freshness, the flavours, the quantity provided, many guests let us know how much they loved the food, my daughter's partner even said "it was the best fish he has ever tasted" I know what guests will always remember is the food so please let Warren know how thrilled I was and our entire family, especially Sam & Rose. Also, Sam (your Sam :-) was amazing the day we packed in and on the day - he was so helpful, and cheerful and even found me an iron to iron those bloody tablecloths S&R hired, he is great at his job. And to you Fiona, thank you for all your time over the last 12 months organising the wedding for Sam & Rose and for meeting all their expectations, it truly was the most beautiful wedding, and the guests are continuing to let us know how great the day was, the venue, views and food. Thank you again, wishing you both and the team future success. Linda (Sam's mum)

Wow where can I start. We fell in love with this venue from the first sight. We were looking around for Wedding venue and we chose to have it at The Officers Mess as soon as we visited the venue. Lovely venue with amazing Rangitoto view. In addition, the manager/organiser was just amazing. Very friendly and genuine to help us to have the best day of our lives. Easy to communicate with and very friendly. Food was amazing too. The staffs on the day were very accomodating and helped everyone to be able to enjoy the day. Honestly we had one of the best days of our lives and thanks to The Officers Mess team. Words cannot describe our gratitude. Easy 10 out of 5 stars! Thank you guys!!
