We were completely blown away!We were completely blown away!
There certainly aren’t enough words to emphasise what a truly perfect day it was. The team put Andrew and I at complete ease from the moment we arrived. Little things we would never have thought of - they had it covered. Everything flowed so seamlessly and every guest commented on how incredibly professional both Lynn & Shea were and how they were a literal joy to be around. Everything was exactly as we had wanted and the attention to detail completely exceeded our expectations.There certainly aren’t enough words to emphasise what a truly perfect day it was.

Worth their weight in gold!Worth their weight in gold!
From the very moment we chose to have our wedding in the merchant, all was plain sailing. Nothing was an issue. Lynn, our wedding planner, has been our rock! So professional yet with a sensible approach in guiding us in our journey. Our wedding day was made even more special by having Shea and Erin with us to ensure everything went as planned. Also the belly laughs they provided throughout - worth their weight in gold! Photography: Firefly WeddingsFrom the very moment we chose to have our wedding in the merchant, all was plain sailing.

Myself and Kevin wanted to say thank you for everything on Thursday and everything you have helped with on the lead up to our big day. We had comments about how helpful you were on the day and everything just turned out perfect. Shea and the entire team were also just amazing, we are so grateful for everything.
