However at no point was it made to clear to us that the invitations would need more than a 1st class stamp. They were light and fitted easily into a standard envelope. Our invitations still haven't reached our guests a week later. When we raised the issue with Michele she said it warned us on the delivery note that you need to check with royal mail before posting. However the delivery note was hidden under lots of bubble wrap and nowhere did it make it clear that it would need more than a 1st class stamp. Given the expense of the invitations I would have thought it was common sense and pure courtesy to warn clients about this. We were really disappointed that Michele was very rude and unhelpful when we explained the problem.

The simplifiers were recommended to me by a co-worker who had used them for her wedding about a…read moreyear before mine. Upon our initial meeting, we were very impressed and decided to hire them..... big mistake. At no point in the wedding planning process did I feel secure knowing that they were handing things. 100% of the time I had to think of something and ask them to do it, rather than them having the knowledge and experience to be proactive about it. By the time I asked them to do something, I probably could have just done it myself. When I asked for a wedding day timeline the week before the wedding (not a bizarre request), I was then asked for all the times of events.... by this point I had essentially created my own wedding day timeline, which I did in the end because what they sent back to me was terrible (they even misspelled the names of all the wedding party even though I had sent them detailed information and a copy of the program... unacceptable for someone who is supposed to be detail oriented). Even just when I needed another opinion (I was doing most of the wedding planning by myself) I couldn't even get that out of them, just for something as simple as table linens or where tables and chairs should go. At one point a payment deadline for chair rentals completely passed with no mention of it from the Simplifiers. At this point we were 2 weeks out from the wedding, they had been handed all the contracts and were supposed to be in full control of everything. I would have at least appreciated an email reminding me that I had a payment due. 2 months after our wedding I received an email from the bakery asking where the cake stand was. The entire time I had assumed this had been returned back to them the day after the wedding. I called the Simplifiers and all they could say was that they didn't know because they left it at the venue. I called the venue, they were nice enough to track it down and when they asked if the Simplifiers could come pick it up and return it to the bakery, they said no. This is completely unacceptable from a wedding planner. This is one small task that should have been a no-brainer for them to automatically do. We are lucky that the baker is a friend of mine and did not charge us the huge fee for the missing cake stand. Eventually, they had to go to the venue themselves and get it when the Simplifiers would not. Bottom line, I did every single piece of wedding planning with absolutely zero help from the simplifiers. I am incredibly disappointed in their service and the ridiculous amount of money that we wasted on them.

My name is Vimesh from Bedford and I am married to Leena from Leicester. We planned our wedding in…read moreAugust 2011 at Athena in Leicester. As obvious, we wanted The Best wedding and we started planning since March 2010. Because we had seen Sanjay Foods' services in the past and experienced the quality of their food, we always wanted to book them for our very special day. Being honest, they might be slightly expensive than other caterers in the market but I guess, what you pay is what you get! Whilst searching around for many different quotes, one of the caterers asked me to go and see him in an Indian sweets shop! I assumed that the shop must be owned by him but when I found out that it was just a random shop with couple of chairs and a table outside, oh my god and on top of that he was trying to convince me to hire his company and I tell you what, I would have rather got the food from McDonald's or Burger King!! LOL Anyway, when we contacted Atulbhai to discuss the quote, he was very professional and kindly invited us with our family for food tasting. Seriously, on the day after food tasting, we didn't even have dinner at home! The food was absolutely delicious and service was just a top notch! He was also very open to all of our feedback and I was very pleased with the way he dealt with my one negative feedback. To be honest it wasn't even a negative feedback but me just looking to criticize on something and I mentioned that all of the samosa should look exactly the same colour. I don't want some light, medium or extra brown! when I mentioned that my wife just gave me that look and I knew I was going to be in trouble! LOL Even thou, picking on little thing like that, Atulbhai took it very seriously and gave me a compliment for being honest and he also assured me that on our wedding day it will be all the same! Come on, you know that cooking over one thousand handmade samosa and to get them all fried same colour, it's next to impossible but trust me, they were not far away! Through out the period of prior to the wedding, his highly classed appointed Event Manager Lai-yee Chung dealt with all of our queries. What sort of customer service would you expect from 7 star hotels in Dubai? She raised the highest standards and it would take very long time for someone else to meet those standards. Not only that she dealt with their business related queries but she involved Atulbhai (where needed) and also built a strong business relationship with Hira (Athena venue manager) and planned the whole day's itinerary for us. The week before the wedding, I even knew exactly what time I had to place the mangal sutra or kanku on! (Indian wedding traditional material) LOL We must say that as everything that had planned and promised, they delivered on the day to very high standards. Amount of positive feedback we received from our family and friends about the delicious food, waiting staff and management, it was truly unbelievable. We were so happy to hear lovely good comments about our wedding from our near and dear ones and all the thanks would go to Sanjay Foods. Vimesh & Leena PS: Happily married, always looking forward to have a pleasure of attending Sanjay Foods' future events and craving for their food Highly recommend to book them for your events! Thank you for taking your time out to read our experience.

We didn't have a taster session because we were short of time so even though we had complete trust in you, we didn't really know what to expect. But it was so tasty and right up our street! That creamy mash! So many people have commented on that! It was beautifully presented too. All of our friends and family loved the food and the service just surpassed all of our expectations! The staff were so lovely and professional but also really relaxed and a good laugh too! The coped so well with our self-stocked/strange bar! What was the lady at the front of house? I can't remember her name now... sorry, but she was just brilliant! Honestly, I don't know what we would have done without Dimblebee's on our wedding day. Sammy, you were so much more than a chef and I felt like you were our wedding planner and you completely put my mind at rest the day before the wedding when I felt like I had no idea what I was doing! Thank you for the help with the tables and the extra entrance/shelter - amazing that we didn't need it in the end! So, thank you so much. We will definitely recommend your services to anyone who are looking for caterers. Can't thank you enough! Anyway, that's enough gushing - take it easy! Best wishes, Kate and Dev x

I contacted Wayne prior to my brother's wedding to discuss hiring him, and he was more than helpful. We felt reassured about his ability and professionalism after learning of the DJ work he has done previously in major venues around the city, such as Rock City, Rescue Rooms, and the Nottingham Arena, playing a DJ set at a Rihanna concert no less. Wayne listened carefully to our requirements both practical and song-related, and reassured us about issues that the wedding venue had asked about (is equipment safety tested etc). On the big day, he arrived punctually and set up very quickly with the minimal of fuss. Well, no fuss at all to be fair. As the evening party progressed it became clear that this was someone who knows how to 'read' the vibe of a crowd of people. One great track after the next ensued, with never a moment where a song suddenly appeared that cleared the floor. A great set was delivered, chiefly of his own construction but also with my brother's few specific requests thrown in at the right time. No cheesy DJ talking between songs, there simply wasn't any need as one great choice of song merged smoothly into the next! Following the event, I heard many complimentary things about the choice of DJ, and most importantly my brother was delighted. I have since encountered nottsDJ doing sets at charity events where he has been just as good. I know that should I ever need the services of a DJ for my own wedding, my choice has already been made!
