This year we bit the bullet and entered the Essex Wedding Awards under the category Golf Course Wedding of the Year.  The awards organised by Main Event Wedding Shows Ltd are there to pay special recognition to wedding suppliers across Essex who really go the extra mile.

We have a bunch of incredibly talented individuals here at Five Lakes Resort who work hard in delivering a quality service to help craft the day. Our team go above and beyond, evenings and weekends, if required, to ensure our couples are stress free. That was our motivation to enter.

Whether it be from Lorna, our fabulous Coordinator to Wes our brilliant Banqueting Manager. They're here to help create memories for two people and the friends and family they treasure. Pete and his gaggle of greenkeepers ensure that the grounds and golf courses look immaculate. This includes areas like our pergola which in the summer months burst with hanging baskets and flowers to boot.

Last week we got the email. The email that shouts out CONGRATULATIONS! We still have stiff competition to beat - however we're delighted to announce that we're an Essex Wedding Awards finalist. The awards ceremony takes place on Wednesday 27 November and we'll be keeping everything crossed. Eek!
