What people are saying about us in our Testimonials!
Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to leave us their testimonials. We love to get your feedback!
“I had such a beautiful intuitive clarity session with Melissa and it was exactly what I needed. From the moment she arrived, I felt held in such a calm, safe and sacred way. We shared meditation, intuitive card work and herbal tea, and it felt deeply grounding and nurturing.” Claire from CMS coaching
“The moment I drove into Greenacre I was blown away by the exquisite natural beauty of your farm. And meeting all of you with your huge welcoming smiles, I knew instantly that I had come to the perfect place. And I was right!” Alex
And as you can see in the following testimonials, our couples have absolutely loved having their weddings here with us at Greenacre Events.
I’m not really sure words can do justice to the incredible time we have had. From our first phone call to the night of the wedding, your compassion, joy and kindness have been exceptional. We had a vision, but without you and your stunning venue, we never could have had the wedding of our dreams. We will never, ever, forget this magical place, and the wedding elves that are you two! The dogs also had the best time ever and we think life will always have a bit more colour in it thanks to you.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,

‘Me and my husband waited over two years to have our wedding reception at Greenacre Events. It was totally worth the wait. The whole weekend was exactly what we wanted: relaxed, rustic, laid back and totally us. All of our guests commented on how much fun they had, and many even said it was the best they had been to.
Fiona and Gerry are wonderful, as is their home. They are just the nicest people, nothing was too much. Their enthusiasm and positive energy is infectious and they ensured that everything was in hand. If you are after something a little different to your bog standard wedding, with a chilled out, earthy, green vibe, then this is the place! We can’t wait to visit again.

From the moment we met Fiona we knew Greenacre Events was the perfect spot for our special day! The relaxed, positive environment is so apparent as soon as you pull up! Our day ran so smoothly with no worries about anything. Fiona had it all under control. The juice bar area was one of our fave spots of the weekend, the help yourself vibe went down fab with our friends and family taking it in turns to play barman/maid. The food that was arranged was absolutely perfect and complimented the day so well! The weekend we spent at Greenacre Events is completely unforgettable, we cannot wait to go again and party, laugh, reminisce with Fiona. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our wedding the most unforgettable weekend!

A perfect weekend filled with sun and laughter. Music, jugglers and circus skills, yoga, drumming, dancing, jamming sessions, and Lebanese food platters! What more could we ask for!
Hope you have both recovered!

The Mexican Swan-Fest Fiesta Wedding!
Dearest Fiona and team. Our wedding will go down as one of the best days of our lives. You were so supportive, flexible and understanding with us, giving us free reign to transform every inch of your beautiful home into our Mexican Wonderland. We were blown away by the natural beauty of your farm. You helped us make the planning process go so effortlessly, and if ever we had a wobble, you were always there to pick up the pieces and put us back on track. Thank you for sharing the laughter with us! We read your testimonials before we came, and they were completely true!
Love always, Alex and Graeme

To Gerry and Fio,
We are leaving your beautiful farm elated. We knew it would be wonderful from your testimonials, but it surpassed even our expectations. Your heart and soul is everywhere we looked. Added to the fact that the sun shone and everyone we loved fell in love with the place meant that there truly could not have been a better weekend. We will never forget our time here. We can’t thank you enough.
With so much love

Wedstock!! The moment we met the Greenacre Events “dream team” we knew that you were our kinda people! It’s been an absolute joy planning the wedding due to the endless enthusiasm, positivity, shared vision, creativity and generosity of spirit. In just 10 months we’ve planned and delivered an event which will stand in the collective memory as a truly unique and joyous occasion. For Steve and I, the cliche of ‘happiest day of our lives’ couldn’t ring truer. Ridge Farm is an extraordinarily beautiful place run by extraordinarily beautiful people. THANK YOU !!
Kathryn and Steve
Dear Fio and Gerry

Dear Fiona and Gerry, Thank you so much for all your help in creating our dream festival themed wedding. We have had a truly fabulous time and now have new found friends.

Lots of love Lisa and Mike
Greenacre Events was perfect for us. As soon as we walked into the amazing barn we knew that we’d found the right place. Fiona and her team thought of absolutely everything and made our wedding magical. Thank you so much for creating our special day which we’ll always remember.
Ali and Sarah (Mrs and Mrs Johns!)
Thank you so much for everything you have done for us and our families and friends. It has been the wedding weekend of our dreams! You have the most amazing place here, it has been a total joy to spend time here, we cannot imagine saying our vows and getting married anywhere else. The bell tents are utterly gorgeous and so comfortable. But more than this, more than the tents, the amazing views and the great organisation – the warmth of you both and the extraordinary lengths you went to to ensure our day was magical was above and beyond. You are wonderful people and we are so thankful for everything.
All our love Rachael and Macca
Dear Fiona and team – Thank you so much for such an amazing wedding. We could never have imagined it would have been so perfect. Your venue is amazing and the image of everyone gathered around the fire with the bar, marquee and oak tree lit up and decorated, was so magical and will stay with us for life. You have both been such superstars. We never believed we would find people who would constantly just say “yes no problem” to all our crazy ideas. Everything was perfect, we will never forget a thing xxxxx

We can honestly say that we have never found such warm and welcoming people. The magic of Ridge Farm is something that this motley collection of homesick South Africans will not forget! We leave here with the highest opinion of you all, happy indeed to call you friends. Always stay as wonderful as you are!

THANK YOU for making our magical day exactly how we imagined and wanted it to be. We have made some awesome wedding memories here – lets get divorced so we can do it all again!!
Matt and Katie
What a wonderful wedding celebration we had. It was fun from the arrival of Kate and Suzanne on a tandem to the lighting of the fire pit at the end of a truly lovely day. Fiona and her team are amazing, ever present to help and able to keep the fun going all the time… I never saw them without smiles on their faces throughout the 12 hours. That takes some doing ! Do have your celebrations at Greenacre Events, you won’t be disappointed.

“We held our wedding reception at Ridge Farm on the 25th May 2013. We chose to do so because we didn’t want a standard reception – we wanted a venue that would allow our guests, and us, to really relax and enjoy the day. And that’s what we got; a wonderful, two day party for 200 guests, many of whom said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to. The location is lovely, with wonderful views and plenty of space, even for the most ambitious reception (and ours was ambitious). Fiona and Gerry organised the lot, from the marquee to the caterers to the posh loos and it all ran like clockwork.”
Jim & Sue
“Ridge Farm was a dream wedding location! We all gathered around under the oak tree for the blessing which was incredibly special, surrounded by beautiful green fields and trees as far as the eye can see. All our guests were blown away by its beauty.
Fiona and Gerry organised everything so well, worked so hard and were always so enthusiastic and easy to deal with. They met all our requests without a hitch, from marquees to child entertainers, from hog roasts to our music stage. Thank you both so much for the day and the memories!”
Claire and Mat
Fiona and team could not have made our day more wonderful. We had been let down at another venue so were feeling pretty annoyed and desperate about the whole thing and Greenacre Events totally came to our rescue helping us both mentally and physically! They made our wedding day so special with their cheerful and positive approach – nothing was too much for them. The venue is amazing with the most gorgeous views all round ! So beautiful – and we loved the sheep! Sitting around the firepit later on was the icing on the cake. Thank you so much Greenacre Events !

“I was involved with the ‘Circus Revels’ event which Fiona Cathcart organised for our parish. Her organisation and co-operation with others involved was exemplary. I would not hesitate to invite her to spearhead another such event.”
