The Sub Rooms wedding packages are available with full catering options from the on-site kitchen, run by talented and locally renowned Chef Lynsey.
Couples can complete their day with a showstopping sit-down wedding breakfast, or work with the team to create a street food menu for something more casual.
The team will ensure the day is planned and coordinated perfectly – and can connect couples to a talented local network of professionals to help create your dream wedding, including celebrants, photographers, florists, stylists and bakeries.
