Anyone getting married in the Trafalgar Tavern in Greenwich?

Hi everyone
Wondered if anyone was getting married (or has got married) at the Trafalgar Tavern in Greenwich? We are about to book it and just keen to hear some nice stories about it and any tips!
Thank you! x

But I love Greenwich and the location is to die for so I may suck it up!
Thanks for posting Diamons and Sparkles - glad someone else thinks it's as nice as me!
We are getting married here next September! misssausage, when are you getting married? Would be great to share tips/ideas with a fellow Trafalgar bride!

Have also been looking at dresses but it's starting to stress me out so think I'll put that on hold for a while!
Like your idea of fish and chips too, we are going for sausage and mash, like you say it also keeps the cost down!
We're going to have a look on Saturday. As we would have a Sat wedding it's £3k hire and £3.2k minimum spend which is quite a chunk..
But the fish and chips idea is a good way to keep costs down...
Bloody loved it! Thought it was so gorgeous, but I had a few things that didn't quote fit with me. Worried about the bar being in a different room and the main room is huge!
And when we worked out the numbers (all food and drink etc) it left us with £1k to do the rest of the wedding!! I just couldn't make the numbers work which is a shame because I really liked it.
Went dress shopping on Sat, it's going to be as hard as I thought it was! How's yours going?
What happened at dress shopping nothing you liked? I am going on Sat...bit scared. Other than that I haven't done much yet...got a photographer, giving notice on weds then moving on to flowers as next thing. Did try to get bridesmaid dresses but that's already stressed me out so I will come back to that one! x
I always had to be the one that called them. They didn't call me. I had concerns about this throughout, however we were so keen to proceed with the venue I figured I would find my polite way to suggest they need to improve their communication somewhere along the way.
I was assured I had a pencil in the diary for two months. I called numerous times to double check. I was told I was unable to proceed any further with the pencil as the room was undergoing refurbishment however they will put me in the diary and once the room was available they would get me in to proceed. After a few weeks I still hadn't heard from them and so I called again. I was invited in to meet a manager who told me there had been a muddle and the room was no longer available for hire. I asked what on earth I was doing there?
I have discussed this with friends and family and responses have varied from 'rubbish', 'quite unbelievable in terms of service, attitude and general shiftiness' to 'total bulls**t'.
I would strongly advise anyone to think twice before entrusting these people with large sums of money, let alone 'your big day'.
