Alex and Rachel got married at St Leonard's Church in Swithland in Leicestershire and celebrated with a fabulous tipi reception at Bawdon Lodge Farm in Leicestershire.
Alex and I want to say a huge huge thank you to Val for all of her help and support in the lead up and on our wedding day.
Val was an absolute superstar - providing us with lots of ideas and suggestions, whilst all the time listening to our thoughts and helping us to make them a reality. Val provided us with her Wedding Day Management service, but we felt that Val offered so much more than just help on the day - supporting us at supplier meetings in the lead up to our wedding day, as well as meeting us two weeks before to run through our entire schedule and putting our mind at ease. Val and Anna were around all of the day before our wedding helping us to style our tipi and worked so hard to help us create our vision.
On the day, Val and Anna couldn’t have been more valuable - helping with final wedding dress tweaks, arranging last minute reception music when our guitarist was delayed and supporting all of our guests throughout the day, ensuring they were warm, dry and happy! We couldn’t recommend Val and Benessamy Weddings enough - we loved working with her and our day was all the more special because of her hard work and support." - Alex & Rachel
I also received this lovely thank you card from Rachel's parents Pat and Bob.
Dear Val
We just wanted to say a big 'thank you' for all your help last weekend. We are still walking around with huge smiles on our faces. It was such a special day - exactly what Racel and Alex wanted - a great big party with the people they care about to celebrate their wedding - everything was perfect!
We really do appreciate that we could enjoy the day - in fact the whole weekend - without having to worry about 'this and that' - and that's very much down to you - all your help in setting up (not forgetting Anna of course too!) and on the day itself, you were always there!
Many, many thanks, - Pat and Bob

A wedding weekend or multi-day celebration is your chance to extend one of the happiest days of your life and spend even more time celebrating. Although anyone can host a wedding weekend, they’re particularly popular among people getting married overseas. If you and your guests are travelling a significant distance, it makes sense to maximise your trip by planning various events and gatherings for the duration of your stay.

In simple terms, an experiential event is one that seeks to immerse guests in an experience. It’s not an event you simply attend and observe. By engaging all the senses, it can be experienced on several levels, creating more impact and making it more memorable for everyone involved.
