You and the team have been the most amazing team to deal with. They day went so smoothly and it was everything we could have wanted it to be.The food was exceptional. The canapés were phenomenal (churros were a success), the dinner was so delicious with the whole sirloin cooked to a perfect medium rare and desserts and late night snack were equally of high praise!!!
