Dear Lindy:

Well what to say....Nat and Chris's wedding was perfect...gee, you guys are good...now I know why you win all the awards. The newly weds will be writing once they are back in UK, but Kelvin and I just wanted to thank you most sincerely for creating the exact day we had all hoped for.

Everything went brilliantly. In the planning you were so helpful, professional and efficient and on the day that carried through. As you know, planning a wedding with the bride and groom overseas and us on the high seas could have been difficult, but not at all...it was a breeze thanks to you. Everyone commented on how smoothly it all went and and how yet how unobtrusive the staff were. The room looked fabulous...how it was transformed in such a short time is beyond me. Everything looked perfect. The food was fabulous, the wines were good, the staff a delight. What more could we ask.

It really was the most special day that will live with us all forever.

Thankyou all once again.

Warmest regards,

Ann and Kelvin Smith

We'd like thank Lindy and the staff at the Newport Mirage for being such an important part of our wedding. Choosing the reception venue is probably the most important decision in the wedding planning process. From day one Lindy went the extra mile to ensure that the our special day was everything we hoped for and more. Our experience at the Newport Mirage, and the glowing comments from our guests regarding the "amazing food" and "impeccable service", prove that we made the right choice. We highly recommend the Newport Mirage to anyone looking for the best in a wedding reception venue.

To Lindy and staff,

How do I express to you all, the appreciation and admiration we all have for Lindy, in particular, and the whole staff at the Newport Mirage, for the most wonderful and trouble free wedding that I have ever attended.

Not only was the venue the most beautiful that I have ever been to but the staff from the delightful young receptionist to all the endless people who spoilt us from the moment we began the ceremoney, to the very end of the most memorable nights of my life.

Lindy is the most considerate, approachable, highly professionable and compasionate person that I have had the good fortune to meet and I would highly recomend her and your fantastic venue to anyone who want the very best, and who doesn't, for the wedding that we all dream of.

Before I conclude this email, let me also say that the food was spectacular with high praise voiced by all guests. Our whole experience, from arrival to departure, was memorable and a wonderful memory of a perfect wedding at a perfect venue. Once again, thank everyone at The Newport Mirage from a very happy Mother of The Bride..

God Bless.

Hi Lindy,
John and I would like to extend our heart-felt thanks to both you and your wonderful staff in preparing a beautiful venue for our wedding.

The service provided by all staff was nothing less of outstanding. All involved were professional, warm and welcoming.

All guests were delighted with the "beautiful fresh food" and the manner in which it was presented. May I assure you no-one left feeling hungry!

Last but by certainly no means least, we would like you to know that your organisation of such an important day in our lives was just perfect,. Nothing left undone and not a thing for us to worry about on the day.

You can be assured that both yourself and your staff will be highly recommended to anyone searching for the perfect wedding venue - not just by John and I but by all the attending guests.

Please pass this message on to your management team as a sign of our gratitude for a wonderful day we will always remember.

Warmest regards,

Dear Lindy,
Just a short note to say thank you so much for everything you did to make our wedding day run smoothly. Everyone was most impressed with the way the evening was organised and loved the food and service. Your calm demeanour and can do attitude helped to make our nerves dissipate and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Thank you and the staff at the Newport Mirage for everything, it was fabulous and an evening we shall never forget.

All the very best,
Sophie and Stephen Jones - Wedding 26th September 2008

Hi Lindy!
Finally back to work today, but at least it's not a Monday (and a long weekend is coming up!).

We had absolutely the best time at our wedding, we could not find fault with one single thing. It went by in such a flash, but we've got great footage and photos of it all. Aaaah, I want to do it all over again (without all the planning of course!!).

Thank you again for absolutely everything you did for us and our wedding, all our guests said they loved the food and the view etc, and we can't wait until it's our turn to be a guest at a wedding at the Mirage!

Thanks Lindy!
The wedding was an absolute blast, and we'd both like to extend our sincere thanks to yourself and all the staff at the Mirage for making it such a fantastic, memorable night. We have had so many complimentary comments about how wonderful everything went from our guests, which is a credit to the Mirage and the staff. Everyone including yourself went above and beyond what we expected from a venue, and we cannot thank you enough for making our wedding day as good as it could be. We could not have been happier with how the entire evening went.

Unfortunately, reality bites and we are now trying to settle back into "normal" life after an amazing honeymoon in Fiji which we enjoyed immensely.

Thanks again for your best wishes; I'll attach some photos from the day so you can have a look.

Kind regards,

Catherine & Sean Connors - Wedding 8 March 2008

"Since returning from our honey moon, one thing we really wanted to do was to write and thank the Mirage and it's staff for ensuring our wedding reception was all we would have hoped it to be.

It was a fantastic effort by everyone at the Mirage particularly Zoe and Lindy and we have had many, many compliments from our guests. The presentation of the venue, the quality of the food and the excellent service by your staff were highlights.

Thank you once again for your part in a very memorable occasion"
Yours sincerely,

Jenny and Peter Wellings - Wedding 9th June 2007
