They organised meals and drinks for us. A few people came earlier, and they were so flexible and accommodating to those guests and started the drinks earlier for them!

Fenix was an absolutely amazing venue and Lauren and Aimie were a pleasure to deal with. The food was amazing. Both our ceremony and reception were beautiful and there is not one thing I could fault. Thank you to everyone at Fenix!

Fenix Events went above and beyond to ensure we had the most amazing day. We were one of the unlucky couples impacted by the sudden closure of The Willows only 8 weeks out from our big day. We were blessed that Fenix Events was available on our date and could accommodate our numbers at such short notice. From the start the team was nothing but welcoming, helpful and friendly in getting our wedding put back together in such a short period of time. From our first meeting with Marjie to get our date locked in to working with Aimie up until the day on all the details, we felt like we were being taken care of by a team who truly wanted the best for us. Our family was able to enjoy an amazing tasting night together ahead of the day and Aimie was always available to answer any question we had. All our guests commented on how attentive the staff were, the quality of the food and wine and the overall feel of the space was magical. On the day I didn’t have to worry about a thing, they had it handled and made our day what it was. Thank you again to all the team at Fenix, you helped us literally turn our frowns upside down and couldn’t have asked for a better venue to celebrate this special day in our lives.
