Testimonials

We cannot thank everybody at Preston Court enough for all their hard work, continued support and always going the extra mile to ensure we had our dream wedding. When we looked round the venue in summer 2024 with Anna and we knew it was the venue for us and booked it! (Over 2 years in advance!)

We knew the team were great and the whole process to get to the big day has been personal and seamless - but it’s not until you’re in the midst of it all, that you realise just quite how unbelievable you all are.
