Arnos Vale Cemetary was where my wife and I decided to get married in July 2023. The team were fabulous. On the day itself, we decided to book out all 3 venues, the underwood for the ceremony, the anglican chapel for food and the spielman center for the reception which just made the whole day flow quite nicely. The Arnos Vale team set up the underwood so that the chairs were out in the morning, and we came in and decorated it with some vine that we purchased from the grounds keepers. We worked with a "preferred supplier" for the food which was Epic Caterers and we had the wine delivered the day before and the day could not have gone more smooth. I even developed a stomach ache part way through the day and the team went above and beyond ferrying me mint teas to settle my stomach which was lovely. Communication was amazing and I don't think we could have picked a better team to work with to make our day as amazing as it was.
