they are the best

weddings are stressful... but the team at The Ship were incredible. Attentive and was ahead of the game the whole time. They were prepared and ready for food and drink.

We didn't expect the weather to be nice so didn't discuss an outdoor area, but when we arrived we had a big area for family and friends to chat and enjoy a drink outside in the marque. A great touch.
