Jonathan gives Westenhanger Castle a 5 star rating...... 

On the 4th March 2014, I was delighted to have visited the ultra historic and indeed one of Kent's finest Wedding and Events Venues, yes it is was the one and only Westenhanger Castle in Hythe in Kent. This castle has everything, it is steeped in history, it has been Inhabited by Saxons, Romans, Royalty, Distinguished members of society and lots more.....

I was guided by Sarah Poole, who is at the helm of this fantastic venue.  Sarah has a very modern outlook on life where, she is always delighted to help you, she is very professional, very easy going, will listen to what you require and accommodate where possible. She will work with you every step of the way, in order to assist in Planning your Wedding or Event. The options available to you are vast, you can have outdoor weddings on the Lush grounds surrounded by history, Castle Weddings and Receptions, and not forgetting the splendid Marquee which can accommodate up to 200 guests. There are so many enhancements which Sarah has made, that will make your wedding day at this venue even more special.

A five star recommendation from me.............................

" I have met Jonathan and i really like his ethos on what he is bringing to the brides & grooms and i look forward to welcoming him back to " Westenhanger Castle " as i know they will be well looked after from the moment they book him "

I was delighted to have been recommended to Jodie and Jonathan, in order to to be a Jewish Wedding Toastmaster and Wedding Consultant and MC, on their big day, on 23 March 2014 at Great Fosters in Egham in Surrey. Prior to the day, I worked very closely with Jodie, by talking about her ideas and desires for her day, and by recommending to her lots of modern and unique touches, that would make their day memorable for a lifetime. I then proceeded to drafting a schedule for Jodie and Jonathan, that would ensure, their day, would run smoothly, and according to their wishes, the schedule was then approved by Jodie, and I then, contacted my fellow wedding professionals on the day in order to ensure, they would have the same running order, and therefore everyone, would be on the same page...  
   
On the day I arrived around 1 and a half hours before the ceremony, in order to do all of my preparation. I was greeted on arrival by a member of the Great Fosters team, who were very polite and very client served orientated, he then took me for a view of the whole hotel and venue area, and also told me about the history of the venue, fantastic... He then introduced me to the banqueting team, which included Martin and Gareth, and they also were fantastic...  After discussing logistics with the Great Fosters team.. I then liased with my fellow and superb team of wedding suppliers, to ensure everything would be coordinated correctly, these included, Rabbi Tony Bayfield who lead the Chuppah Ceremony,  Jewish Wedding Band Pure Orange , Expression Photography from Harlow in Essex, Jewish Wedding Harpist Rivka Gottlieb, Natalie of Dollys Candy Cart, and more. 

                     

The Chuppah ceremony lasted for 45 minutes, and was brilliantly officiated by Rabbi Tony Bayfield and his team. Following this guests were invited into a very nice drinks and canapes reception, during this team, Mark at Expressions Photography, used his magic, in order to create a wonderful portfolio of photos, for Jodie and Jonathan. Following the drinks and canapes, guests and family were invited to be seated for dinner, which would take place in the beautiful Tithe barn...      

Following everyone being seated, Jodie and Jonathan were invited into the room, to rapturous applause, to my announcement and the superb , Pure Orange band, sang as the bride and groom entered. Following this, speeches, toasts, a wonderful three course meal catered for by great fosters, cake cutting, champagne ceremony, some of my modern touches, and more were all enjoyed by the bride and groom and their guests. Following this the entertainment began, the bride and groom had their first dance, this was followed by a second dance of the bride and groom with their parents, and then the party was all under way, all courtesy, of the truly talented Pure Orange band.... what a wonderful wedding day this was, and I know, this special day, left memories in the hearts of Jodie and Jonathan and their guests.
