Kay and Peter are booked to marry at St. Paul's Pillar - this is such a beautiful church, old and full of history and their ceremony will be very special. you can chat with me any time, any concerns or questions just ask. </p> <p>I guess the reason most couples choose to marry abroad is to have a quieter more intimate wedding and have those special family members close friends with them. Also its a holiday/wedding/honeymoon in one go. </p> <p>I am always here to support my brides &#38; grooms and even members of their wedding party, or just chat..</p> <p>Stella x </p> http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=430&page#post-2583 Thu, 02 Feb 2012 21:13:47 +0000 SOPHIEBUBBLE 2583@http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/ <p>Hi stella</p> <p>I wanted to join your forum to really feel connected to my daughters future wedding in 2013.

And Budge, wow -your cooking skills are incredible! the food was absolutely amazing! Not forgetting the staff at Zaffrons, who were fantastic and professional and nothing was too much trouble. Thankyou to you all! what a great team.</p> <p>Since booking our wedding over two years ago, Stella has been there for us every step of the way -replying to emails, phonecalls and making arrangements at the drop of a hat. For any future brides contemplating using Stellas wedding co-ordinator services, she's a must! Stella is fantastic, so friendly, organised and simply amazing at what she does. </p> <p>Our whole day was so emotional and out of this world, we ourselves, our family and friends have memories of Cyprus, Stella &#38; Budge and Zaffrons which we will all treasure forever. </p> <p>We used Jim the photographer, who is also incredible. He captured our whole day so perfectly,and such a genuinely lovely guy. He has a very special eye for capturing a moment in time, amazingingly talented!</p> <p>We can't stop thinking about our special day and how perfect it was. Everything was organised and Stella was on hand to help with anything - even lending her babysitting services free of charge during our church service :) </p> <p>Zaffrons itself looked absolutely stunning! so thankyou -you did a great job! and although we only had a relatively small weding party of 20 adult guests, Budge did a grand DJ job of helping to get the dancefloor going and creating a party atmosphere (the twinkle star lights are gorgeous by the way, love them!) -even our usually shy little three year old came out of his shell and was rocking the dancefloor! haha. we were all made to feel so welcome and comfortable, thankyou.</p> <p>Stella, would really love to keep in contact. To both of you, keep up the great work -im sure i wont be the last bride to compliment you on how fantastic and professional you are.</p> <p>we will definately be coming back to visit sometime in the future!</p> <p>Thankyou once again,<br /> Love Mr &#38; Mrs Bent, (Claire &#38; Lee)<br /> xx</p> <p>If any brides want to ask me anything, please feel free to email me:</p> <p><a href="mailto:ickle_clairel@yahoo.co.uk">ickle_clairel@yahoo.co.uk</a></p> <p>Ceremony @ Ayia Kyriaki Church (St Pauls Pillar) and reception, Zaffrons. </p> http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=355&page#post-2492 Sat, 16 Jul 2011 13:13:11 +0000 admin1 2492@http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/ <p>Hi Debs,</p> <p>Thanks for taking the time to write your kind words.</p> <p>I am going to add your photo with soon on the testimonial page.</p> <p>lovely boy, by the way a real credit to you.</p> <p>Keep happy.</p> <p>Stella x </p> http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=355&page#post-2491 Fri, 15 Jul 2011 21:34:54 +0000 Debbs 2491@http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/ <p>I just want to say a huge massive enormous thank you to Stella!<br /> Our wedding day was fantastic, I want to do it all again!</p> <p>Stella, from the bottom of my heart ... thank you!

How exciting you've not got long to wait, I'm a year this Monday - can't wait. Don't worry about the weather, I was over in April this year and although it was cloudy here and there it never rained.

I live in Tala, Paphos, and we have arranged everything ourselves, but could not find a suitable venue that would not cost us an arm and a leg but provided the perfect menu and the perfect setting. Then we found Zaffron and Stella. Now we are both relaxed about our forthcoming wedding, as Stella made us feel so comfortable and at ease, and she has even booked an incredible photographer for us - one of the most important things to book. We are so far in advance with our planning that the only thing left to get is the cake topper! </p> http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/topic.php?id=330&page#post-2473 Fri, 24 Jun 2011 23:04:33 +0000 RachelW 2473@http://www.zaffronweddings.co.uk/forums/ <p>Hi All, I am a new bride!

I never imagined we could get our wedding sorted in a few days!!! If we had come over and tried to do everything ourselves it would of taken me years lol. I just wouldnt know where to start.<br /> To see all the different venues was priceless, and i cant believe the hotel i had my heart set on was my least favourite. The Coral Beach is the most perfect setting and the views are everything i have dreamed of.<br /> I have got some pictures of flowers and cakes to send to you so will do that in the next week.<br /> To any new bride to be who reads this Stella is worth her weight in gold.
