Short description of how you describe your big day:
“We had a day of laughter, good food, good drink and belly-laughs. We met at a ceilidh in The Old Finsbury Town Hall and decided to have our reception in the exact same room, with a ceilidh to boot! We had a day that celebrated London – as we are both Londoners – with London taxis and routemaster buses, and honoured our Jewish and Irish heritages. Easy Gourmet did a fabulous job on the food, drink and on the day management was utterly brilliant. We had an unforgettable time.”
