On Saturday August 6th Merchistoun Hall played host to a Wedding reception for over 100 to a very appreciative Sarah and her husband. They were a pleasure to work with from the moment they started plans with us back in the early part of 2010!
Last weekend we played host to a fantastic 30th Wedding anniversary of Sue and Chris. The day saw Merchistoun Hall and side filled to capacity of some 120 people with family and friends. The day itself included: Quiz rounds, games and activities, a buffet lunch and evening buffet. Scalextric track, magician and a theatre performance based on the life and times of Charles Darwin. The evening finished with a ‘home made’ disco.
During the day the Wednesday Art Group met up for a day master-class session … creating Christmas cards!
On Sunday evening Footlights undertook a complete run through of the forthcoming play A Tomb With A View … without scripts and had their first costume fitting session.
We would like to take this opportunity to show you a few more comments from recent hirers for weddings and function to show how much people enjoy using us here at Merchistoun Hall,
- ‘The hall and surroundings looked lovely’
- ‘Everyone was really helpful and really made it easy for us to enjoy’
- ‘We have some lovely memories … so thank you very much for contributing to those’
- ‘Success was down to your excellent staff… entirely professional and so generous in their attitudes’
- ‘Many of our guests said Merchistoun Hall was the best community centre they had ever seen’
- ‘House and grounds were truly lovely’
