We had our wedding reception on the first floor and everyone at the Elgin was fantastic from start to finish - the team really knows what they are doing, the food is delicious, the venue is already looks really good so doesn't need lots of extra decor. We had the best day & thank you so much for Cara and Tom in particular for everything they did in the lead up and on the night. Would highly recommend as a reception venue!
