“We wanted a short church blessing before the celebration, and the little chapel in the garden, older than the main house itself, was perfect for that. Bram arranged everything without any fuss.”
“The path along the pond to the reception hall is just long enough to catch your breath after the ceremony. Our photographer was thrilled with it.”
“We had 140 guests and the hall felt just right, not overcrowded. Parking in the back yard was a bit tight when everyone arrived at once, but it sorted itself out.”
“Seventeenth-century atmosphere, twenty-first-century ease. Bram always replied within a day.”
“The front garden really does sit right on the Vliet, the same waterway where Leiden's regents once built their summer houses. Our foreign guests found that story almost as lovely as the wedding itself.”
“Nice that the bar wasn't mandatory, we brought our own wine for dinner. Bram simply went along with it.”
