Testimonials

Words cannot express how much we appreciated the love, care and attention that went into all our meetings, calls/emails, planning, and especially the perfect execution of our wedding day.

We still can’t believe the wedding almost got cancelled due to the worst snowfall the UK had experienced in 30 years; they even named it ‘the beast from the east.’ Nothing could have prepared us all for what we faced that week! In true Matara fashion you were available at all times to handle our calls/inquires, you kept us in the loop with what was going on, and most importantly created a contingency plan in case weather conditions were not agreeable – boy that came in handy!

As for the actual wedding day – three words: Wow, Wow, and WOW! Right from the start, the parking was easy and efficient for our guests. We were all speechless with how beautiful and vibrant everything looked.You could really see in our wedding photos how amazing the grounds were, and how the themed rooms complemented our day.The waiting staff were friendly, professional, and always around serving our guests with canapés and drinks – everyone was so impressed with the service and the number of servers Matara provided for the day – no guest was left waiting for anything. The main meal was nothing short of incredible! Luke, the chef, created dishes that looked like works of art as they were being served. The canapés, starter, main and dessert all exceeded our expectations – all our guests praised the delicious food, a special thanks and shout out to the chef!

Ultimately, the greatest compliment we can offer is that you have provided us with the greatest day of our lives. It exceeded all our expectations, and quite simply was perfect. We will be forever grateful for all that you have done, and the Matara Centre has been forever engraved in our memory and our hearts.

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts,

“I just wanted to say a huge thank you to you and all of the team at the Matara. Robin and I had the most amazing weekend and an absolutely wonderful day on Saturday. Everything went completely to plan and ran on time; the food was FANTASTIC, the venue looked stunning, the Matara staff were friendly and so accommodating and the fireworks were a huge success (The guests were blown away by how great they were!)

You were there throughout the whole process, from the moment we booked the Matara right up to the wedding day itself, making sure it all ran smoothly. You always answered our many emails promptly and made us feel assured that everything would work out, which of course, it did! It is clear that you love what you do- You are a real asset to the Matara

The Matara is a truly magical place. It allowed us to be totally ourselves and the space allowed us to create a wedding that completely reflected who we are. My friends and family have all said that it’s the most unique, beautiful wedding venue that they have ever been too. Having the main house for our family to stay in on the Friday and Saturday nights really added to the magic of the weekend too- My dad made spaghetti bolognaise for 50 people..quite a feat but really not an issue in such a fabulous kitchen!

I wouldn’t change a thing about our wedding day. It was absolutely perfect. I am so happy that we now have a tree planted in the grounds and a reason to come back to look at it and reminisce on the best day ever. We can't thank you all enough.
All our best wishes
Charlotte and Robin” – Married at Matara 24th March 2018

‘We just got married this weekend (28th Oct 2017) at Matara and we are still buzzing from the experience. It was a sensational day. The venue was unbelievable and we are amazed at how many compliments we have received about this. All the staff were so accommodating and so highly organised. Nothing was too much trouble for them right from a year or so ago when we first looked around the venue. The we stayed in there was also so beautiful and quirky and was great for hosting others the night before the wedding. Luke, the chef, was absolutely amazing and the food was so wonderful – he tailored the food to what we wanted and did the most amazing selection of Japanese canapés that we wanted to accommodate our Japanese honeymoon themed wedding. The staff are also so wonderfully flexive and are able to meet your individual needs and preferences, unlike many of the other venues we looked around. We cannot recommend this venue enough and are just so sad that our wonderful day is now over at Matara.’
