Ross at The Watering Hole, and his excellent team, provided a superb service at our son’s wedding. He was very helpful in the event planning stage, clearly setting out the different options for us, enabling us to choose the most cost-effective approach. On the day (and night… the entire weekend, in fact), his team worked efficiently to ensure that nobody went thirsty(!), with no queues at the bar, and that all of the broad range of drinks were kept nicely chilled throughout a warm weekend. The Espresso Martini Hour was a huge hit, as were the Bride & Groom’s cocktails (Brambles and Margaritas). And the wines, beer, lager, cider etc were all fabulous too. Thanks, Ross, for helping to make it such a special weekend. We highly recommend you!

Ross and his team provided the drinks for our wedding and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They really went out of their way to take care of everything and accommodate guests. Highly recommended!

Ross and his team catered for our postponed wedding in August this year and we could not have asked for a better service or experience with them. The team were very accommodating and understanding when inevitably we had to postpone our 2020 wedding due to Covid. We felt we were in safe hands the whole way through the planning process, and were confident in the teams ability to deliver the perfect day which they most certainly did! We went for the open bar option which worked really well for our outdoor marquee reception on our farm. There was never a queue at the bar, and the staff worked tirelessly all day to make sure everything ran smoothly. There were plenty of different drinks on offer to cater for everyone. Also personal touches such as bringing the bride a Pina Colada at the top table and the groom a jug of his favourite beer were really appreciated! We would recommend the Watering Hole to anybody celebrating a special occasion and would have no hesitation in using them again. Thanks again guys!

I cannot recommend this company enough. We have used them twice now and on both occasions they have excelled themselves in providing a second-to-none service. They are organised, punctual and so willing to listen to the customer & accommodate specific needs – we wanted to give our party a “Hot Fuzz” theme and the staff were so willing to join in. If you are looking for a special touch to a party then these guys are absolutely it & such good value for money. I can only stress that they are just brilliant at what they do and provide a touch of excellence to any party.

The Watering Hole were linked with our wedding venue (Oxleaze Barn) and we were in very good hands! We were unable to arrange a tasting as we were in lockdown but Ross made it easy for us to order a box with a selection to sample, which was a great lockdown activity (we ordered one for our parents to participate via Zoom too…) Luckily our wedding day itself was less virtual and we were able to go ahead with a reduced number of guests (30). We were initially disappointed to hear that the package prices per head were changing due to it becoming a “micro wedding”, since it was national restrictions and not our choice. However after going through the full process we think that we got a lot of value for our money within the “all in” package we finally chose for our guests. Ross was brilliant in the run up to the day, very responsive and answering all our questions on practicalities and the effects of Covid in plans etc. The were very accommodating of our specific requests – ordering in bottled beer from a brewery local to us for the bar, sourcing a particular sparkling wine for the toasts and offering us the option for cocktails both at the reception and on the evening bar. They even very kindly upgraded us to a red wine off the Gold package when the one we had selected (off the Silver package) was unavailable. On the day itself the bar staff were fantastic. They were friendly and kept drinks flowing throughout the day. The cocktails were incredible – particularly the espresso and passion fruit martinis which we chose for the evening bar. My grandad like them so much her ordered two at a time ;). Honestly, I have not been able to find an espresso martini which lives up to it since. Thank you being a part of our day and a part of the celebration!
