TESTIMONIAL B ia nca and Glen Ridin g’s we dding reception a t F ins “Hi guys! We just wanted to thank everyone involved in making our wedding reception unforgettable! We had the most amazing night ever! Many of our guests told us, how impressed they were with Fins restaurant as a reception venue. We always knew that the food would be beautiful at Fins, which was one of the main reasons for us choosing the restaurant, but on the night it exceeded all expectations, thanks to Steven and his talented kitchen crew. And the wines suggested by the sommelier complemented the food perfectly. The professionalism and service of the staff ensured that drinks were always topped up and the night ran as smoothly as possible. In particular, we would like to extend a big thank you to Natalie. From our first meeting to picking up the cake and flowers the day after the wedding, she was fantastic! Always professional, organised and well educated in the Fins menus and made us feel completely confident in knowing that the day would be perfect! We take no hesitation in recommending Fins for a simple dinner or special function and will definitely visit when in town. Thanks again to everyone!" Bianca & Glenn Ridings
