Hannah & Dray - July 2022Damien was fantastic from the beginning; he listened to our ideas and we were able to come up with a really unique wedding, just for us. From the space layout to the food, everything was exactly what we wanted and how we imagined. The entire team was extremely attentive and made sure we had exactly what we needed. Damien even waited for me to arrive, made sure my father and I had welcome drinks and also a moment to relax before the wedding started. Despite some unforeseen changes to the schedule, Damien managed to make sure it was as stress free as possible and adapted everything as necessary. Overall, we had a magical day and we would 100% recommend the MAC for a bespoke, unique and personalised wedding.
Laurence & Wendy HurstWendy and I wanted to write and thank you properly for all the help … you and all the staff at MAC were brilliant, the room looked absolutely stunning and the food was prepared and presented just as we had imagined.
