Latest reviews on wedding experts in the London area
The Windermere Manor opened its doors in 1991 as a venue to accommodate smaller, private parties, but it wasn't long before the demand to host weddings became apparent – something that The Ring isn't surprised by considering the historic architecture and picturesque surroundings (perfect for on-site photographs) that any bride could fall in love with. Though The Manor seems to be a hidden gem that's still undiscovered by many, they now host about seventy to eighty weddings per year and offer an all-in-one location for weddings that includes the on-site Wedding Coordinator, Julie-Ann McCallum, indoor and outdoor ceremony locations, custom designed menus, discounted guest rates for the on-site hotel, all tableware and choice of complimentary table linens and napkins, and much more.

In the past, The Ring has visited and called Collins Formal Wear countless times in an effort to do research for our brides and grooms. Every single time we approach Collins, we are greeted the same way each customer is greeted - warmly and with appreciation. Even with tons of weddings on the go, clients filling their rental locations, and lots on their plates, the three owners of Collins Formal Wear - Lynda, Brad and Curt Collins never fail to provide exceptional service to each of their clients, which likely has something to do with the fact that they believe "shopping for a tux is like shopping for a wedding gown. It's not a decision to be taken lightly." It's for this reason, and for their extensive selection of high quality, exclusive formal wear, that The Ring decided every groom (and his bride) should know what we know about Collins Formal Wear.
