Lucy Attwood Events - June 2024
A massive thank you for your professionalism and support over the last 4 weeks for the delivery and execution of the two parties we have just done at Ripley Castle.
I strive for perfection every time, in the hope to achieve it at every event, but as we all know with live events, it's very hard to achieve 100%. But I can honestly say that these two parties went like clockwork and we certainly achieved the perfect events. My client and all their guests said they were by far the best parties they had ever been to.... And that's all down to you guys, as none of it could happen without you, the attention to detail and always going above and beyond.
You are all amazing, please please filter this down to all your staff/crew/drivers/office.
THANK YOU - and see you on the next one!

Hello Charlie and Mark
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to you and your team for all your hard work, creativity and adaptability in making the event such a success yesterday. Both events were hugely well received, and the food, drinks and service were spot on. The clients were so pleased with how everything turned out, they were also very thankful to your teams for all your work to create menus suited to their style and also accommodating so many dietaries without effecting the quality and flavour of the food – no mean feat!
Thank you again

Dear Mark & Charlie,
Thank you for yet again helping us make history! We simply couldn’t do these types of event without you.
It was a challenging event, full of twists and turns but your quest for perfection and deliciousness also shines through!
Please also thank the team of people you had back of house making it all come together so seamlessly!
Pleas also thank the wonderful rooster of partners you had on the night; Rum Runners, The Chai Guys, Jamon Jamon, Shuk, (I won’t forgot my first!), Brindisa, Well Kneaded, The Cheese Truck, Bobochacha, Climpsons, It’s Gelato as well as the lovely oyster gang!
A note from the client:
You pulled it off again – we thought it was absolutely terrific! The feedback has been excellent so far and the food/service was particularly fantastic.
Thank guys for helping us deliver the vision!
Best wishes

Anthony - Father of the Bride - Thank You
Dear Charlie and Mark
We have finally come round from the weekend and I just wanted to send you a short mail to say how everything you did for us starting right back at the tastings and introducing Lee for the wines led up to a galactic success on Saturday and a again on Sunday.
Everyone has commented on two things. The weather and your delicious food and canapes. The dinner was a triumph with lamb and the signature cheese cake and your staff were brilliant, getting everything done and yet unobtrusively professional.
I can’t thank you both enough.
With my best regards and assuring you that, Now we have finished, we will tell everyone who asks who catered for us.

Debra & James - Thank You
We loved working with you guys from start to finish and we absolutely adored the food - it was perfect! We had so so many compliments on it - including a number of guests saying things like “if all vegetarian food was this good I would give up meat”!
Other than that it was really faultless and we’ve been singing your praises throughout Charlie - you were just so fantastic to work with, so calm, organised and helpful with every tiny detail - from the pickles to the table and chairs and the hand sanitisers!

Charlie & Mark
Wow, what can I say but thank you for making our wedding the most incredible and amazing day. Everyone couldn’t stop talking about the food and how incredible you all were. Particularly serving fish cooked so perfectly to so many people.
Despite all Boris’s best efforts I think the day was perfect and we could not have asked for more.
We really appreciate everything you did to get us to the day, the ever changing menu requests, the dietary requirements and also being patient with the family who insisted on guzzling most of the canapés!
Please pass along our thanks to all of your team and we hope there is some clam before the next party for you all to enjoy a bit of sunshine.
All our love

Lucy Attwood - November 2019
“A massive thank you to every one of you and all your teams for all of last week and the event itself on Saturday night. My client said it was 'faultless' and 'one of the best nights of her life'.
The short setup time was always going to be tricky with this job but made ten times harder with the vast amounts of rain with knock on consequences. However, all of you raised the bar and went well beyond the line of duty to get this job done, and not just done, but to the very highest professional level possible.
I am incredibly lucky indeed to have such amazing suppliers who go the extra mile, without you, there is no event”

Matt & Sabrina Testimonial
“Sabrina and I wanted to pass on a massive thank you to you both for everything you have done for us in the run up to the wedding. Your help and support was crucial to the wedding going so well and we have had nothing but compliments from all of our guests, who absolutely loved the food and the layout. None of our guests had ever experienced anything like it and they can’t stop talking about it!
Mark you absolutely nailed the Polish late food! Even my father-in-law was impressed, and that’s saying something!
I can’t put into words how happy we are. Thank you both again from the bottom of my heart.”

Netflix Testimonial
“It was a real pleasure working with Mark and Lily on the Stranger Things 2 launch.
The food initiative is a great example of passion, creativity and quality coming together. Mark provided some incredible food recommendations inspired by Stranger Things and he worked tirelessly to execute them to the highest possible standard - the food looked great, tasted amazing and it was all made from top quality - locally sourced - ingredients. Lily handled the logistics side of things and ensured everything was delivered seamlessly.
We did about 6 events across the UK in the space of a week and the team were smiling right up until the job was finished. I will definitely be using them again!”

Fisher testimonial
From start to finish it was a pleasure working with Lily and the team. The menu exceeded all our expectations and due to the high demand for the incredible pies, the team were able to respond quickly and deliver additional servings on site.
Across the three days of the conference the whole FI team acted professionally and proactively responding to the changing schedule and demands.
Can’t wait to work with you guys again!
