Dear Chris & Gillie,
We wanted to drop you a line to say thank you.
I have to say though, ‘thank you’ doesn’t really go far enough to express both our gratitude and happiness at how you and the team at Belmount made ‘our perfect day’ the ‘best day of our lives’. Everything was taken care of beyond our expectations from taking care of the unexpected requests of some of our more venerable guests, to taking care of one friend who took an impromptu snooze in the living room (we did take great pleasure in reminding him of his seemingly forgotten nap on your sofa).
In all honesty you both really did make our wedding day the best day of our lives, the food was amazing, the service was flawless, and the atmosphere was as if we were all part of your family. We both lost count of the number of our friends who told us ‘… that was the best wedding we have ever been to, no seriously it genuinely was the best wedding we have ever been to, Belmount is amazing and the people who took care of us were fantastic and so lovely.’ Everyone we have seen since the wedding, that was lucky enough to experience the day at Belmount, has recounted to us a story of their own about how lovely you all were or how they were taken care of in some special way. In fact I am sure there are one or two that are now planning to divorce just so they can marry again and hold the wedding at Belmount!!
The venue was amazing, the setting was perfect, the team were fantastic, and the food…. my only regret on the day was that my stomach has a finite capacity!! (I can still taste the food it was lovely!!!).
Both Bekki and I knew when we first met you both that Belmount was perfect, we didn’t expect it to be better than perfect which it was. We felt that our wedding was as important as if it had been the wedding of one of your own family, the kind of personal attention we knew we would never get from a large wedding venue or hotel, no matter how many stars or crowns they have on their name board, because stars on a board can never beat people who truly care and that is what you want on the most important day of your lives together and that is exactly what we got at Belmount.
We would love to drop in when we are next in the Lakes to say thanks in person if that’s OK because both of you and Belmount really now have such a special place in our hearts for making the first day of our lives the best day of our lives.
Kindest and warmest regards
