			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, we&#8217;re back from our honeymoon so just wanted to let you know that we had the best time EVER at The Plantation for our wedding weekend.<br />
 <br />
It was just beautiful and we couldn&#8217;t have asked for anything more&#8230;..<br />
 <br />
Our friends and family who stayed on-site were blown away by how gorgeous the accommodation and grounds were&#8230;.not to mention the fully stocked fridge and delicious breakfast each day!!!<br />
 <br />
A massive thank you to Tristan who was just brilliant.  He&#8217;s a true professional and made us feel all at ease with the order of events.  Nothing was too much trouble and he always had a smile on his face.<br />
 <br />
All of our guests said it was one of the best wedding that they have ever been to&#8230;..now I know they have to say that <img src='http://www.theplantation.com.au/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' />  but I really do believe that they mean it!<br />
 <br />
From the bottom of our hearts, Lee &amp; I would like to thank you, Kellie &amp; Tristan for everything&#8230;..we loved every second!<br />
 <br />
I have also attached a few photos so you can see how beautiful it really was.<br />
 <br />
Thanks Angie&#8230;<br />
 <br />
Kind regards<br />
Kylie</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I just wanted to say a big thank you for everything you helped with in making our wedding day beautiful and stress free, all of our guests commented on what a beautiful place The Plantation is and how relaxed and professional all staff were. Angie, you helped make the weeks leading up to the wedding stress free and we really appreciate all the effort you put in. Tristan, you were very helpful from the moment we got there with your attention to detail, everything ran so smoothly on the night, even when we had a late change to the schedule. You certainly have a great set up, and we look forward to staying there again.</p>
<p>Again, thank you for creating wonderful memories for ourselves and guests of our special day.  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wow.  Hamish and I had an absolute ball.  The weekend was perfect.  Our house guests loved the venue.  I have had so many calls, letters and emails from all of our guests complimenting the venue, food, service and all my hard work in organising the wedding.  If you don&#8217;t mind I have graciously accepted those lovely compliments, but you and I know I didn&#8217;t really do anything!!  I think that is the best feedback you could get.  You, Al, Tristian, Dave and all the staff did an amazing job with organising the whole thing.  Knowing that work was all done gave us the time to do the other stuff.<br />
The way they handled the ceremony site issues worked great.  All your recommendations with regards to celebrant, Andrew on the guitar. All wonderful.<br />
Considering you and I have never met face to face, I felt extremely relaxed and confident everything would go well. and it did.  I am normally extremely pedantic and fussy (I&#8217;m a Virgo) but I was so relaxed nothing could spoil the day and nothing did. I didn&#8217;t even have to check on the set up progress.<br />
I&#8217;m pretty sure you will get a couple more bookings from a couple of my friends.  And thankyou for the gift for our anniversary. We can&#8217;t wait.   Thank you again we wish we could do it all over!!</p>
