CANAPE MENUEVENT TESTIMONIALS
A note to thank you for everything!!!
Everyone I have spoken to have told me that the food was the best food they have had at a wedding and that the alcohol was also great. My girlfriend said ‘I’ve never been so full at a wedding before’. People went nuts for the seafood and I’m so pleased that a cocktail function was executed so well (no one was hungry, that’s for sure).
It has been so great dealing with you, you’re so on top of everything and nothing was ever too hard. You’re great at what you do Kaya, so thank you for making our day so special 😊
I think it’s extremely rare that everything runs smoothly on your wedding day and that’s what happened for us (stress-free and no issues at all). I wouldn’t change a single thing, it was the most perfect day! The dance floor went off and everyone was having the best time.
Please thank the chef and all the staff for us too, they were amazing!
I so want to do that day & night over again!!!
The feedback from all has been really positive – the phrase “Best Christmas Party for years…” was thrown around which I am really pleased about. The staff were all wonderful and helpful… they jumped in wherever they needed to and I really appreciated how on top of things they all were. A big thanks needs to be said to the restaurant manager who stepped in behind the bar and really helped out on the day.
Fantastic location, great staff and a seamless event. Thank you for looking after our End of Year Staff party – the Empire Lounge team made the day effortless and I couldn’t recommend the team and venue highly enough to others looking to hold an event here.
We had the BEST time.
My friends have been raving about the venue ever since.
Truly the bar / wait staff were beyond accommodating, checking when we wanted the food served, concocting delicious cocktails and bringing them to our table. The food was incredible, cannot beat fresh seafood and despite the weather the outlook was also still beautiful.
Thank you so much for all of your help organising and all of the wonderful staff that made it such a seamless time.
(I just hope we didn’t overstay our welcome! We were there well into the evening!)
We will be back very soon I am sure.
