From the early stages of planning through to the Gala Evening itself our experienced management team and attention to detail, will ensure Head Boy and Head Girl will be able to organise a truly memorable night to celebrate this momentous occasion.
As your guests arrive and walk up our fine red carpet they will realise that they are in for something very special.
The menu cards, one for each guest, will include all names of the pupils attending and will provide a lasting reminder of the friendships that you have made.
Your four course dinner will include a choice of starters and desserts, and our courteous and polite staff will have pleasure in silver serving the main course choice to your guests efficiently and piping hot. Special diets such as vegetarians, gluten free and coeliacs can easily be accommodated with a little prior notice.
To toast what is sure to be a very successful future for you all we are pleased to include a glass of wine with our compliments for those guests enjoying a formal dinner.
For musical entertainment we can provide both live bands and discos together with the services of a local award winning photographer who specialises in capturing the atmosphere at these exciting events. There is also the option to include our Magic Mirror Photobooth for a fun reminder of your prom night!
For what can only be described as an 'A' grade evening, look no further than Monmouthshire's favourite country house hotel.
