Well, what a fantastic evening we had! The team at BAWA were absolutely brilliant we would not have been able to do it without them. The food was amazing, hot and served on time. The staff were really helpful and I had lots of great feedback about the food.

What a pleasure it was to use your Ballroom and Concorde Room. Both rooms were perfect and set up exactly as requested. What really made it stress free was dealing with the team at BAWA and nothing was too much trouble for them!
