August 2025

From first meeting Melissa and the Thursford team at the East Anglian Wedding Show, we knew we were in safe hands, with people who cared just as much about our day as we did.

Sarah & I wanted our wedding planning to be as simple as possible, due to busy work lives, and thus Thursford having the Truly Unique package and a list of trusted suppliers really made everything easy. In addition, the team were incredibly flexible in the lead up to the big day. Nothing was too much of an ask for Melissa & Kerry and they made our day a joy to plan.

During the preparation the day prior, Melissa, Kerry and the Thursford team were all on hand, ready to assist with anything from last minute signs, to a timings run through that made everything seem simple. And thanks to the team at Thursford, on the day, everything went perfectly, even with last minute additions to the itinerary added by us!

Booking Holly Lodge also made the entire weekend so special for us as a family, having both the Groom & Bridal parties able to get ready at the same venue, albeit separately, made it easy and efficient for our photographer to get those all-important preparation photos. The rooms are stunning, the food was delicious and the staff extremely accommodating.

The big day would not have been the special, unique and magical day it was without Thursford and the team there. Literally every guest was in awe of the venue, riding on the Gondola and the Gallopers and every single one mentioned how it reflected us as a couple perfectly and Melissa & Kerry were a huge part of that.

Thank you to the entire team for everything you have done  for us. We have memories that will last a life time and we can’t wait to be back this Christmas for the Christmas Spectacular.
