We had so many comment from gusts about the wonderful venue and food. Thank you to everyone for making it such a success. We will happily recommend the Loxley to anyone.

Saturday, 17 April 2010
Dear Erin and all the Staff at Loxley,
Justin and I would like to thank all of you for the absolutely wonderful wedding we had! From the first time we visited Loxley we were in love with the venue and knew it suited our vision for our wedding, but you exceeded all our expectations and it truly was the perfect day.
The service we received was efficient, friendly and patient. There was nothing that was too much trouble, and the help we received was invaluable. Justin and I felt a connection with both the location and the staff – we were made to feel like part of a family!
On the day as issues arose, the staff were able to deal with them calmly and efficiently, which enabled us to focus on our special event. From ensuring everyone was in the right place, to making sure there was food while we had photos to helping us out very late at night with lost keys, we always felt that nothing was too hard.
We had many comments from friends about how wonderful the wedding was – especially the food which was absolutely wonderful, and ensured that no-one went hungry! The room was amazing and the attention to detail was evident.
Mark you were fabulous on the day, making sure everything went smoothly and ensuring everyone was in the right place at the right time. We had many comments from guests about how fantastic you were at many tasks – from the beautiful violin and piano music, to helping out guests, to being master of ceremonies and DJ.
Erin, from the first time we met you to look at Loxley your professionalism, organisation and friendliness made us feel welcomed and confident. Your help along the way was invaluable. Thankyou for making our day so special.
To all the other staff, you all made the day run so seamlessly and took all the worry away as we knew that you would think of everything. From helping us make sure the room looked spectacular (thanks Vanessa!), to the outstanding service during the reception to the beautifully made up rooms.
Thankyou all for the perfect day!
Many thank,
Kate and Justin Sampson

Hi Erin,

I just waned to say a huge thank you for all that you did to make our wedding day the most beautiful and perfect day! Everything went smoothly and calmly and I didn't feel the need to worry about anything.....I just went with the flow of things, and had a fantastic time!

The staff working ensured that we were thoroughly looked after, that we always had food and drinks, and they constantly checked to see ifthere was anything else they could do for us. A special thanks to the girl who looked after us during the day in the private dining room - she was lovely!

Erin, Adam and I have enjoyed planning our wedding with you....It has been such a pleasurable experience. Thank you for your professional, flexible and positive attitude throughout the last 18 months. Anything we've wanted, you've accommodated, and every question we've had, you've answered.

We wish you all the best with your little one, and again, thank you to you and your team at Loxley for giving us the most special and precious day that we will never forget!

Saturday, 6 February 2010
Dear Erin, Vanessa, Mark and team at Loxley

Thank you so much for making our daughter Michelle and son-in-law Wayne’s wedding a spectacular event.
It was voted "the best wedding ever" by our guests.

It was not much of a day being overcast and rainy but the venue was still in immaculate condition and all of the guests were look after with such care and attention.
The ceremony was conducted under the balcony but was still a magical event
The reception dinner was great with our guests raving about the superb food and fantastic service, many of our guests commented that they had never had such a lovely meal before.
The view from the reception area was still beautiful and the warm and friendly atmosphere added to the experience.
The MC Mark was fantastic; he was professional and kept everything flowing without any pressure or fuss.
The service and attention to all details by all the staff was superb
For those who stayed overnight, they all loved it. Our overseas guests from England and interstate couldn’t believe how good it was. They wanted to stay forever.

The most important thing though was, both Wayne & Michelle had a wonderful time and enjoyed every moment.
Please pass on our personal thanks to everybody involved for your hard work and dedication in making our special day even more special and unforgettable.

Warmest regards
Chris and Lorraine Wurzbach

Dear Paul, Erin, Mark, Vanessa and everyone at Loxley

Thank you so much for making my daughter Danielle and son-in-law Bill’s wedding a spectacular event. It was voted “the best wedding ever” by a number of the guests.

The guests raved about the superb food and fantastic service. Some said they’d never had food so good anywhere.

It was such a hot day (45 degrees) and on the way up, we thought we were going to melt. I arrived to find several of the guests cooling off in the pool before getting ready. This was great fun for the kids (and big kids) who were there. A lovely cool breeze came through just before the ceremony began – it was just perfect.

The beautiful view and the warm and friendly atmosphere added to the experience. The MC Mark was fantastic, he was so professional. He kept everything flowing without any pressure or fuss.

For those who stayed overnight, they all loved it. Our overseas guests from Ireland couldn’t believe how good it was. They wanted to stay forever.

The most important thing though was, both Bill & Dannii had a wonderful time and enjoyed every moment.

PS: Thanks for the Champagne and Roses, they were beautiful.

Kind regards

Friday, 18 December 2009
Dear Erin,

Emily and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you and the rest of the staff at Loxley for helping to make our special day on 18th Dec 2009 such a success.

From our very first meeting, 12 months earlier, we were always confident that our Reception at Loxley would be a success – and so it proved ! The professional and yet friendly manner in which we were always treated helped to assure us that every detail would be looked after and that we could relax and have fun on the day.

On the day, the Bridal Suite and the Kauri Room looked amazing ! So many of our friends and relatives gave us feedback such as “the best wedding we have ever been to!” and everybody was extremely happy with the food and the attention and service given during the evening.

Much of the success was due to the thoroughness and experience of yourself and you staff. We couldn’t be happier with the outcome and look forward to dropping in to visit you in the PDR some time in the near future.

Best wishes & Kind regards
Jim & Emily McManus

It was everything we had hoped for- beautiful weather, beautiful venue, beautiful food, wonderful staff & unforgettable memories that will forever be cherished by not only us I'm sure!

On behalf of my family & myself I would like to thank you for such a wonderful stay. We we were all very disappointed it was only for the one night as we found the accomodation super & exactly what we wanted for our family to spend the time together.

The staff were very friendly from the moment we checked in we felt welcomed & throughout breakfast on the Sunday morning we felt very spoilt with the attention.

Congratulations on such a charming establishment & we would have no hesitation in recommending Loxley to our friends.

Thank you again

Hello Erin,

As parents of the bride we just wanted to thank you and all the wonderful staff at Loxley for everything you did to ensure our daughter's and now son-in-law's wedding day was perfect even with rain......

Every bride dreams of perfect sunny weather for their wedding day but sometimes that doesnt happen! After driving most of the way to Loxley in pouring rain, we were fortunate and did get that window of a few precious hours of no rain to have a beautiful outdoor wedding, photos around the magnificent grounds of Loxley and even the bridal waltz on the deck before we went back to torrential rain for the next 24 hours!

You were there to greet us on arrival very calm and with every option covered to ensure Jennifer & Clint's day went smoothly. Nothing was too much trouble.....our chosen option for rain was all set up and ready BUT as there had been no rain at Loxley for about 1/2 an hour before we arrived you felt we could have the ceremony outdoors and Jennifer decided to take the chance........without another word.....the deck was being mopped, red carpet out and rose petals everywhere......it was absolutely beautiful.

The photographer (who had not been to Loxley before) commented that you couldnt have a more perfect location for a wedding and photos. Although we were worried about the weather he said it was perfect as far as a photographer is concerned - no shadows, no glare which all makes for beautiful photos.

We have attached a few of photos.

Thank you again....it was a magic day!

Dear Erin and the Loxley Team,
We would just like to say a huge thank you for making our special day unforgettable. Our wedding was everything that we hoped for plus more!

Firstly I would like to say thank you to Erin. Erin you were absolutely amazing. Your organisational skills are exceptional and you helped us to put together the most amazing wedding. Everything was clearly outlined and we felt assured that everything would run to plan on the day. And of course it did! We even asked you for beautiful weather and you delivered. Lol. You made us both feel so at ease. Loxley is lucky to have you.

To Mark, we didn’t get to meet you before the big day, but that didn’t matter because on the day you were amazing. You were everywhere! Our music was just what we wanted and you made us feel so comfortable with your outstanding service! You really looked after us the whole day, ensuring that all of our needs were catered for. Thank you so much.

Finally, to all of the other Loxley team members. You too are fantastic! Our food was outstanding and the service of both food and drinks was excellent. The grounds were immaculate and we have some stunning wedding photos with Loxley gardens and scenery. All of the Loxley staff were so friendly and professional. Thank you!
We would definitely recommend Loxley as a wedding venue and we can’t wait to come back and visit you all again.

Thank you!

Hello to all the staff at Loxley, especially Erin :-)

My Husband and I had our wedding reception at Loxley on Sunday 27th September. I just want to extend our deepest thanks to all the staff that contributed to our special day. It was really beyond beautiful and when I saw the room set up, it left me speechless.

The waiters and waitresses were fantastic on the night. We had a few extra people in the room so it was a little "intimate" but the staff were fantastic at getting around and through all the tables. The guest had no complaints and neither did we :-)

I cant thank Erin enough for being so organised and just getting everything done without me having to worry about it. Erin, you are a true professional and the fact that you love your job and were genuinely interested in our day, made it all the more special.

I look forward to returning for our anniversary :-)

Many thanks again.

Marissa and Adrian Biermann.

P.S Also a big thankyou to Mark who was just fantastic. Glad we had him around :-) !

You are the BEST wedding coordinator EVER!

We are also very thankful to your team (special mention to the waitress that was attending to us & the bridal party, she was so accommodating); the staff were all incredible and made our day so enjoyable, relaxing and beautiful. We have had so many people comment on our wedding from the immaculate venue, the amazing breath-taking views, welcoming atmosphere and to the delightful food.

Arren & I couldn’t have asked for anything more, we both had an incredible time and so did our guest. We purely couldn’t have done it all without you & your team’s help – you made everything seem effortless - so thank you greatly! We would recommend Loxley’s to everybody!

I would also like to say a special thank you to Fiona for helping us the day before the wedding when we were all so nervous! We both can't believe the wedding actually happened because the day went so quickly!

We just wanted to say Thankyou! so so very much
for having us on our special day.
You made the task of planning and organising much
easier and the day out shined all our expectations.
A special thanks to Francesca who not only saved my
beautiful dress from the mud i'd managed to gather on it
during the photo shoot with a magic concoction,
but was so attentive to both myself and my beautiful
bridesmaids throughout the photo shoot and the
reception.
We could not have asked for a more beautiful place,
beautiful weather and excellent food & service on the day!
We had so much fun everyone wants us to do it again.
Thankyou thankyou thankyou.

To all the staff at Loxley,

We just wanted to say a big thank you! and in particular to Mark, he was truly amazing at making sure our night ran so smoothly, and making sure the music reflected us and our families.
I also wanted to thank your staff member (I'm terrible with names! sorry!) who helped us all morning, arranging us breakfast and running around in the rain. I don't know what we would have done without her, she was a tremendous help!
The Bridal suite was so beautiful and anyone who sees the pictures cannot believe that was our room! Your gardens also made for the most spectacular backdrop to all our photos, no matter where we were on the property.

Thanks again for a truly memorable day at Loxley on Bellbird Hill!

We've already had so much positive feedback from all the guests! So thanks for such a smooth running night, we couldn't be happier.

Also, just wanted to add to my thankyou how fantastic Mark was!
He's a great musician and MC and he really added to the atmosphere and smooth running of the day! Thanks so much!

To Dear Erin,

We just wanted to write you a short note to say a very big thank you for everything that you did to make our wedding absolutely fantaastic.
From the first time that we visited Loxley, we knew that we wanted to have our reception there. We didn't even look anywhere else!! You made us feel so comfortable and the little extras made us feel like Royalty.
We had the most wonderful night and so many people have commented on what a fantastic venue Loxley is. The scenery is just spectacular and our photo's that Paula took are just stunning, we found it really hard to pic our favourites. We loved staying in the bridal suite and our breakfast the next day was the best!
We know that it was your birthday so we hope that you had a good one!
Could you please tell Mark that he did a fantastic job, things ran so smoothly and it was just great.
I have to say that all your staff and you especially are so professional and we would recommend you to anyone!
We will see you over the coming years as we want to come and stay each year on our anniversary.
Talk to you soon.

Erin (Ivey) & Liam Adams

Sunday, 12 April 2009
Dear Paul, Erin, Jacquie & all the staff at Loxley,

The words “Thank you” seem so far from what we would like to say to you all for making a wonderful day truly magical. We never had to worry about a single thing, everything was taken care of so we got to sit back and enjoy every second of such a wonderful couple of days!

I had read all of the testimonials before we booked in our wedding and couldn’t believe that everyone was possibly that wonderful however; not only did you all live up to those words but so so so much more.

We need to especially thank Erin for her effortless and meticulous organisation of the whole day. Emails and phone call questions were answered straight away, nothing was ever a problem. Also thank you to Jacquie who was ever so patient and helpful, going beyond her duty to ensure Liam and I got the full experience when choosing our (incredibly delicious) food!

I feel like I could go on forever, but we thank you all very much for making the most special day of our lives a day we will cherish forever!

Warmest Regards,

Erin & Liam Adams

To Erin, The Management and all the wonderful Staff at Loxley,

A big and very sincere thank you to all of you for your part in making Erin's and Mike's wedding on Friday 27th March, so perfect.

Right from your seemingly effortless guidance beforehand, Erin, to the actual day, when nothing seemed to be a bother to any of the staff.

Apart from John's nerves when his speech as "Father of the Bride" came around, we both had a lovely time and also enjoyed our stay overnight in the lovely garden room, as well as a scrumptious breakfast on Saturday morning on the verandah.

Loxley is just such a lovely place and will stay in our memories for a long time.

Thank you
Yours sincerely,

John and Jenny Howarth

The venue is beautiful, the bridal suite was great, we appreciate the plate with pieces of our wedding cake that was delivered to our room and the lovely breakfast the next morning on the verandah.

We would recommend Loxley to anybody who is looking for the perfect, intimate wedding.

Thanks again,

*venue – views are stunning; the actual areas where the guests mingle are so well set out and just have a lovely feel – the decor is perfect – the dance floor outside is just wonderful
*staff - all staff were efficient; friendly; switched on to individual needs; polite and had a genuineness about them that you just don’t get these days – you knew they actually DID care how it all went!!

I have to say we were glad we came to Loxley, had we have gone to the city we would have been rushed and too noisy. This was a lovely experience for us, a pleasant way to celebrate our 10th Anniversary.

THANK YOU and keep up the good work.

Thank you for making our Wedding Reception an exceptional evening for us and our guests. Your venue is an absolutely gorgeous place with breathtaking views even on a misty and foggy day. The menu was delicious and your attention to detail Erin and Vanessa from the initial outset of us booking to the time after our Wedding was outstanding. Vanessa thank you for doing my make-up and taking care of me leading up to the big day. And Mark you are a superb musician who created a great atmosphere on our day.

With love Julie and Mathew (Jan 09)

Hi Erin,

Aaron and i would also like to say a very big Thankyou to all the loxley staff especially yourself and Mark for all your help you really made our wedding stressfree. On the day and the night before you were very hospitable and that goes for everyone. The morning of the wedding one of the chefs made us a plate of food and they really went above and beyond their duties.

On the night nothing was a problem for mark i changed him from dancing downstairs to upstairs and i felt terrible but he made me feel like everything was fine.We were extremely impressed by your place and have had many people enquire about the venue to which we have recommended you.

Thankyou for making our day the most special memorable beautiful day of our lives.

To Paul, Erin, Mark and the Entire Loxley staff,
Loxley on Bellbird Hill is the most unique reception centre in Sydney, it is perfect in every way!
We were looking for a property that had it all. Loxley is a complete retreat tucked away
in the Kurrajong Hills. It offers not only solitude and tranquility, but it was the perfect
venue for Tammy and Aaron’s wedding. We wanted the entire property to ourselves.
A simply stunning bridal suite and accommodation for forty of our guests.
The gardens and scenery are exquisite it was a beautiful setting for the photographs and
the video. The Kauri Room was pristine, not a fingerprint on any glassware or cutlery,
the linens were spotless as was the entire room. The inside flowed onto the wide verandah
to meet the outside and overlooked the dance floor. It was raining most of the day and night, it
added something special to the day. After eighteen months of preparation, it was just magical!
Tammy and Aaron could not have had a more beautiful wedding if it was wished for.

We would like to thank Paul for creating such a unique property and his choice of staff, they are a great asset.
Erin, what can I say, you win so many awards for being the best in your field year after year. Nothing was a drama,
you helped in every way possible. You are an amazing coordinator with skills beyond your years. You made us feel
like Loxley on Bellbird Hill was our home for a complete 24 hours. Thank you!
Thank you Mark you are a very gracious Master of Ceremonies we were lucky to have you with us on the day. You not only
had the event running smoothly but you play your instruments so beautifully, the music was enchanting and very enjoyable.
Thank you, to the chef’s, the food was impeccable! We felt like we were in a five star restaurant.
Thank you to the waiters and bar attendants they were very attentive to everyone’s needs until the last guest had left.
They kept working into the night setting up for the most sumptuous breakfast the next morning.
Thank you for your recommendations of Blaycam at Glenwood, for the videographer. Tony was a great part of our day he
made us feel at ease. Also Russell from Inlight’s Photography Penrith, They both captured all the highlights and tears of the day.
They fitted in as part of the Loxley family as well.
We had the most amazing experience at Loxley on Bellbird Hill.
You made all our dreams come true for Tammy & Aaron.
Thank you!!!

We had an amazing time and loved every minute of it, as did our guests. I have had so many people comment on the venue, the food and of course, the amazing service Loxley provided.

Mark was a fabulous MC and the piano music he provided was beautiful.

I'd also like to say a special thank you to Jacqui who looked after me so well the morning of the wedding. Nothing was too much trouble and I felt very well looked after and spoilt!

Thank you all again very much and I would highly recommend the Loxley to anyone who was thinking of a wedding, function or just a weekend of pure indulgence.

Mark you're awesome at what you do, thank you for your advice and service in making our wedding day perfect for us.

Compliments to the chef and the staff at Loxley; having two chefs in the family means everyone is a critic... but not this time! everyone was too busy enjoying the delicious food and the staff service was exceptional!

Saturday, 26 July 2008
To all the staff at Loxley,

My husband and I attended Nick and Kelly's wedding on the weekend and just wanted to say what a great venue and what fantastic staff.

I was very impressed with all your staff who genuingly wanted to be there. My husband spilt a whole glass of red wine all over me half way through the night and I was very thankful that one of your waiters(unfortunately i didnt get to catch his name) was all over it in no time bringing salt,soda and plenty of napkins very discretely so no one noticed my embarrassing situation. Thankyou so much. The food was absolutely beautiful and the service was to a tee. What a great night. I look forward to having another loxley experience hopefully very soon.

Erin, Mark & the Loxley team,

We were just married at the gorgeous Loxley grounds on 21st June 2008, & who knew there could be a wedding so perfect.
The food was devine, the service exceptional.

Erin, you have been fantastic from word go, actually even before go =)
No task was ever too difficult & you did everything you promised & more, even all of our last minute requests, you certainly come highly regarded.

Mark, my gosh where do I start??? We simply couldn't ask for any better!!
The violin for the ceremony & wheels on the bus for our 2 year old while photos were being done and the talk of the afternoon when Jake our jnr groomsman asked jokingly for eye of the tiger, he was dumbfound when you played It for him!
Mark you did exactly what we asked... Keep the dance floor full
That is an accomplishment In itself from our group, well done..

We have had nothing but fantastic comments on the night and still to today about your hidden treasure (Loxley), there isn't a word that gives you enough credit for the service you provided.
I believe that one of our friends wedding has been booked for Oct 09 and 3 others who are definitely getting married with you when it's time!
I really can't thank you enough I have so much gratitude for making this the best day ever!
Thank you so much! Thank you really doesn't do any justice.
To anyone who hasn't yet made a booking all I can say is please please don't miss out on such an awesome venue and team. You'll have no regrets just the best start to a new life!!

See you for our anniversary
Jess & Daniel Ford

Friday, 16 May 2008
Dear All at Loxley,

One year on from our special day, we wanted to write to you to express our appreciation for making the day so remarkable.
From the pre-wedding menu trial to the friendly and amiable waiting staff, all aspects of our wedding conveyed the relaxed and celebratory theme which we wanted our guests to experience.
The food was quite simply, to-die-for and is repeatedly brought up in conversation to this day by our guests. We wanted food which not only conveyed our own love of all things culinary. But for it to stand alone as a memorable moment of the day. And for that you truly excelled.
The staff in particular made the wedding day pass so effortlessly. No request was deemed too great and again, they conveyed the understated professionalism which Loxley came to represent.
Finally, the morning after Breakfast was an absolute feast and perfectly rounded off what was for us the perfect 24 hours.
Please pass on our beloved congratulations to all staff at Loxley. We often pass the driveway to Loxley on our way to the Blue Mountains and it always brings up nothing but positive memories.
With our very best regards.

Tim & Michelle Reynolds.

Dear Erin and Team,

We recently had our beautiful wedding at Loxley on May 11th 2008. I would have never pictured our wedding to be more beautiful, elegant and so relaxed if if wasn't for the tremendous service that you all offered and co-ordinated on and prior to the day.

Erin, we cannot Thankyou enough for making our special day so unforgettable. Your effort and dedication is the best that I have seen so far in the wedding service industry as you put in all your heart and soul into everything you do. It goes without saying that you just made everything so easy and perfect. You deserve every award there is to offer.......

To all the Chefs/Waiters/Waitresses, the food and drinks were tasteful and so prompt that no one could say anything negative about your service. People are still talking about the food and the service was just mind blowing.

To Mark, now I know how important you are. You made everything go right that night and there is no way the guests or us would have kept the smiles on our faces if it wasn't for your well organised and professional service in the role of MC, DJ etc. We will never forget you coming to us and serenading myself and Marcin with the Violin. That was so romantic.

I cannot think of any more words to describe all your efforts and I hope that it remains forever, which im sure it will. I am sure we will be back for a dinner or even a night stay. Cannot wait. Maybe in June for our 2 year anniversary........

Kind Regards,

Lorraine and Marcin Kozinski

The violin and piano music made the day all the more special Mark you are truly talented as both a musician and MC, and Erin it was a relief for us to know that everything was in your capable hands Loxley is lucky to have such a dedicated team member.

Compliments to the chefs and kitchen staff for the outstanding meals and effort to accommodate our guests with allergies and thank you to the floor staff for the faultless service throughout the night.

Dear Erin,

Scott and I would like to say thank you to yourself, Mark and all the staff at Loxley, for all you help in making our Wedding day perfect. We found the staff to be very professional, and yourself and Mark made me feel at ease in the few hours prior to the ceremony, and the Bridal Suite is gorgeous, being able to use it for the whole day, was a nice relaxing way to start my wedding day off.

Mark was very accommodating, making sure everything was ok before the ceremony, checking that the needs of Scott and groomsmen were attended too, and the added touch of playing the violin during our photo's and the piano during dinner, added something special to the day. Would you pass on our thanks to him.

We received comments on the day and are still being told what a great location Loxley is, our guests enjoyed the food and had a great time. Breakfast on the balcony with friends the next morning was perfect.

Once again a big thank you to all at Loxley, for making our day perfect.

Thank you and good luck

Just a quick note to thank you and all the staff at Loxley for all your help in making our wedding day truly memorable.

We’ve received nothing but glowing remarks about every aspect of your venue, from the perfect location and breathtaking views to the mouthwatering food and the very accommodating staff.

We both had so much fun and so did our guests! We simply couldn’t have done it all without your help – you made everything seem easy - so thank you very much!

Dear Erin,

We just wanted to thank you and all the staff at Loxley for making our special day a memorable one. From the very beginning, all the staff were extremely professional and were always willing to assist with minor details and even last minute changes.

From the time that we arrived and finalised things with Jacqui, Glenn and I were able to sit back and relax before our big day knowing that everything was under control.

All the staff were extremely helpful on the morning of our wedding, from Russell with all our breakfast (which was divine) and drink orders after the ceremony to Jacqui who made sure the flowers were with Glenn and the groomsmen and also helped us down from the bridal suite. Even the water dragons made an appearance to help us celebrate our day by joining the guests for the ceremony and then later joining Glenn and I for our bridal waltz.

Mark was brilliant with all the music and also the MC duties. I loved the sound of the violin whilst I was walking down the aisle. He is certainly a man of many talents.

All our guests remarked on the amazing food and beautiful surroundings. Some of the guests even enquired about staying in the chalets for their upcoming wedding anniversaries and weekend getaways.

Thanks again Erin for everything. We are already talking about returning for our 1st wedding anniversary.

Best Wishes
Narelle & Glenn Driver

Dear Paul,

We would like to thank you and Erin for making the Wedding such a special occasion.

None of the guests had attended Loxley previously and were pleasantly surprised with both the delightful venue and the service.

Everyone assumed initially that we would have it at our hotel, but Wayne and I wanted to enjoy ourselves and we knew you could do it so much better and you did.

Everyone from Erin to Mark was extremely pleasant and helpful and everything ran like clockwork.

The food was great, the music was not too loud and everyone comment on what a lovely night they had.

Those that stayed overnight loved the accommodation and would happily come back again.

Erin did such a good job, and nothing was too much trouble from beginning to end.

Please thank the staff on our behalf for a job well done.

Sincerely,

Tricia and Wayne Cooper

People keep telling us they had such a fantastic time and I'm sure a few people will be eager to book their weddings there!

Thank you so much for all your help. I couldn't have done it without you.

Hi Erin,

We've been meaning to write to say a HUGE thank you to you, mark and the staff of Loxley. We've said thank you in person but just thought it might be nice in writing too. Our wedding day was just so perfect! Everybody kept on commenting on how beautiful Loxley is. We sure loved the venue, the food, the reception room, and the bridal suite was very luxurious!

You were always so helpful and organised-it took a lot of the stress off me. You certainly deserve all those wedding planning awards!! The whole day run smoothly and it was easy for both of us just to relax.

Please also pass onto Mark that he was a great M.C and musician. His help was really appreciated and his music was fantastic! We'll will definitely be recommending Loxley to others and we'll be sure to visit again some time to celebrate a wedding anniversary!

Thank you once again Erin. Hope you have a wonderful New Year!

Dear Erin,

We would like to thank you for making our wedding day a memorable one through your careful and attentive coordination. Right from the first time we met you, we were impressed with your professional and friendly style. Nothing ever seemed to much trouble in the meticulous organisation of our day. If anything needed to be done, you were on call to ensure that the day ran as smoothly as possible.

Our wedding guests made very complimentary remarks to us about the location of Loxley and how beautiful it was. This is one of the reasons why some of our guests chose to stay overnight and enjoy a scrumptious breakfast with us the next morning. This was a feature that we particularly liked about this reception venue.

Please pass on our thanks to Mark for the complementary role he played as co-host to the evening. He has a very unobtrusive manner and ensured that the evenings proceedings ran smoothly. We were both surprised at how quickly the day passed. We had a very enjoyable wedding.

Once again thank you so much for the fabulous role you played in helping us to have a wonderful wedding. We certainly have no hesitation in recommending Loxley On Bellbird Hill to others.

Wishing you all the best for a happy & successful 2008.

Kindest Regards,

Michaela & Colin

Hi Erin,

We would just like to say thank you so much for an absolutely perfect wedding day. You were so lovely to deal with and nothing was too much trouble. You were always accommodating in helping us organise special suprises for each other, and even relocated the ceremony at the last minute to our preferred location on the balcony after the rain had only just cleared.

Loxley is a gorgeous venue, and it really showed up in our photos which we will treasure forever. We loved Loxley the moment we saw it. The venue has a relaxing atmosphere which was exactly what we were after, and which helped us and our guests relax and celebrate. The food was also great, which our guests commented on and the staff were helpful and friendly. It was also great to be able to stay the night at the venue with our close family and friends, and wake up the next morning to have breakfast with everybody out on the balcony.

Once again, thank you for making our wedding day so special.

Hello to Erin, Chris, Mark and the Loxley Team,

It’s a very late email! 2 months have passed since we got married at Loxley…. Since then we also had another wedding ceremony in New Delhi, India. We cannot compare the 2 weddings as they were a totally different experience.

We just wanted to thank you for a fantastic wedding….. we cannot thank you enough for having a absolutely perfect day. Erin, you are an asset to Loxley and we appreciate all the help and advice you gave us to make our day the best. Since we have been back in Sydney we have heard countless people say to us that this was the best wedding we have been too!! From the venue itself- the beautiful gardens, fantastic photos opportunities, to the food, the atmosphere, to Mark and his wonderful ability to keep the crowd moving- even playing a lullaby for a baby girl to all asleep to. We also appreciate the fact that Loxley was so flexible to our needs. When we introduced the idea of having an Hindu (Indian) ceremony as well as a Catholic ceremony, it was welcomed with open arms.

Myself and Nitin had a wonderful day, it was just what we wanted. We didn’t want to be hassled with any details on the day. Everything we wanted to happen, happened, thanks to the team at Loxley. Although it was a busy day, we had a ball… we were so relaxed and our guest could tell that we were relaxed as well which made the day a special one.

I know people say that when they walk into a Wedding venue they can imagine their wedding at that place. We too had that feeling when we first saw Loxley. We went with our family to have a look and we were impressed at the hospitality we were shown, even though we were just looking!! No one could have prepared us for the experience we had a Loxley, it by far exceeded our expectations, both in service and ambience. So a big congratulations to the whole team for our special day and I am sure that there will be many other couples who will experience the same feeling of “BLISS” that we did.

Thanks again!

Narelle and Nitin

Hope to visit, or stay there real soon.
Love from
Kim & Keith Roberts
P.S. all the food was delicious x0x0x0

Dear Erin, Mark & The Team at Loxley",

Thank you for being an enormous part of our special day. We consider the day to have been a great success and the feedback we've received from family and friends has been very positive.

Erin, I remember on the day we first spoke, you had just gotten off the phone with a bride that had moved her wedding from the date we were so keen to have to one in March 2008. It was a fabulous moment of perfect timing and coincidence and I was so happy to have the date I wanted. We came to visit not long after and we were impressed by the beautiful gardens and breathtaking views from the moment we arrived.

When we mentioned to family and friends that we were holding our ceremony and reception at "Loxley on Bellbird Hill", we were fortunate to find that several knew you personally. They all said that you would go to the ends of the earth to make our day special and a success and they weren't wrong! You are an incredible event planner with exceptional attention to detail. Despite there being events at Loxley on each weekend (many of them weddings), you made us feel so important and special.

Mark, thank you so much for being our music co-ordinator and Master of Ceremonies. It was very clear from the first meeting at our home that you have been doing this many years. I'm still impressed you know the length of the intro that needed to be skipped in Harry Connick Jr's "It Had To Be You"! I appreciate that you were very flexible and had no problems with me being so specific with the music I wanted on the day.

You kept the day running smoothly and made sure we were on time (or as close to it as possible!). Hearing the music chosen for my walk down the aisle come over the loud speaker for the first time, and at exactly the right point in the song, literally took my breath away. The comments from our family and friends about the emotion of the music on the day were lovely.

To the fabulous team in the kitchen: the food was amazing!! We had only heard wonderful reports about the food at Loxley and we weren't disappointed. Even the vegetarian meal, which can easily be quite generic and uninteresting, was creative and delicious.

The Kauri Room was beautifully decorated and felt cosy and romantic.

The day itself is quite chaotic with many people coming and going, and yet it all went according to plan. You were all very helpful and always smiling, and I'm sure there are many moments when your job is frustrating. You work in an environment of high emotion and I'm sure it can be very draining to maintain outstanding levels of patience and good cheer. We hope you like the photos enclosed.

We wish "Loxley on Bellbird Hill" every success for 2008 and the future. We will certainly have every confidence in recommending your business to anyone. We look forward to returning for other special occasions in our relationship.

Kind Regards,

Lauren & Darran Young

Dear Erin, Mark and the Team at Loxley

Thank you for helping to make our wedding celebrations perfect.

From the first day we saw Loxley, we knew Loxley was the place to celebrate our special day.

From the views, the gardens, the rooms & the atmosphere, to the friendly and accommodating Staff - we couldn't have asked for anything more.

Planning a wedding from Interstate via emails, was going to be a challenge. However Erin and the staff at Loxley made the process easy.
Everyone was accommodating and the attention to detail was amazing.

Our dream was for an elegant but relaxing wedding, and Loxley was the most amazing and special place, proving to be exactly what we were after and more.

We have just arrived back from our honeymoon, and still receiving comments of how amazing the food, the location, the service and the overall night was. All of our guests (including ourselves) traveled a great distance to share our special day at Loxley, & have commented that the experience was definitely worth the drive.

Thank you again for making our wedding one most memorable Attached is a photo, we thought we'd share (photographer Ben Newnam Photography)

All The best

Dear Erin, Mark and all the Angels at Loxley,

Magical is how we would describe the wedding of our daughter Sarah to Rowan and the stunning venue and the wonderful staff at Loxley played a mammoth part! Everyone felt that we were all touched with 'fairy dust' as the whole event felt so surreal, even the weather was especially kind to us with such a glorious day.

There was an enchanted aura from the first time we visited Loxley on Bellbird, we all knew this was the location to make our special occasion "extraordinary". Initially some guests thought Loxley was 'a long way to travel' but everyone agreed 'it was definitely worth the drive' as the views were stunning, the venue divine, the gardens inviting and the staff were warm and friendly. It was a fantastic idea of Erin's for all the bridesmaids, the bride and the mother of the bride to come up the day before and stay in the chalets. We were so relaxed after swimming in the pool and going on long walks we felt like all the wedding guests were visiting our own private house.

A wedding is such an important occasion and every bride wants it to be a perfect event and of course the parents want it to be beautiful too. It's impossible to pinpoint exactly what made this a perfect wedding because the many telephone calls we have received from family and friends all comment on different aspects; but the one general theme is that the night ran so smoothly and guests felt so completely at home. Mark (Mr Music Man) definitely gets tops 'marks' for the Magician's award for orchestrating such a smoothly run event and providing such idyllic music. Erin (the wedding planner), you are worth your weight in gold - you live and breath Loxley. You add your own special magic and are such a delight to work with. Congratulations to you and Loxley for winning your awards, you definitely attract tourists to Kurrajong! The customer service and attention to detail from Everyone at Loxley was 'out of this world', it was definitely above and beyond expectation - even the beautiful photo you included on your website of Sarah and Rowan captured the essence of the venue and the permanent smiles on the faces of the bride and groom!

To top it off, breakfast on the balcony the next morning for all the guests that stayed at Loxley was a delightful way of reliving the wedding!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, we will definitely be 'walking / talking' advertisements for Loxley on Bellbird Hill - it even made us (parents of the bride) consider renewing our vows - not bad after 34 years of marriage!!).

From my school teacher husband - TOP MARKS!
Our best wishes

Dear Erin and all Staff at Loxley
Janice and myself would like to express our heart felt thanks to all staff involved on our special day.
The decision to hold our reception at Loxley On Bellbird Hill was always felt to be the right decision,
prior to the wedding when asked where we holding the reception and mentioning Loxley people
would say it's perfect.

From the start all dealings with you or any member of the staff made us feel you were doing your utmost
to provide the best day we could hope for. Mark playing both the violin and his piano was incredible,
we were pleasantly surprised when Mark appeared with his violin whilst we were in the garden having
our photos taken and leading us thru the gardens to the the reception room. Mark kept the night running
smoothly, with both his MC work thru to music selection and playing the piano.

All our guest remarked all night long that the venue was perfect, and the meals were awesome. Our
Bridal party at breakfast the next morning kept remarking that that the room was just right for the
number of people in attendance. The accommodation both with the Honeymoon suite thru to romantic
chalets was outstanding with remarkable views as far as the eye could see.

We will definitely recommend your venue to any friends or family who wish to marry in the future, in fact
one of Janice's relatives will be contacting you in hope of booking.

Thankyou all for making our day feel so special, "well done"

Kind Regards
Kevin & Janice Jenkins

Hi Erin and to all at the Loxley on Bellbird Hill,

Duane and myself would like to thank yourself and all of the staff at Loxley for making our dream wedding come true. We couldn't have asked for a more gorgeous, beautiful and romantic location to finally get married. With the ceremony in the late afternoon, and such a clear and beautiful day, our photos turned out spectacular! The evening sunset was just gorgeous. Thankyou for letting us park our baby (the car) on the grass behind the ceremony area and for giving us the idea to have our first dance as husband and wife outside on the lower deck. It was truly amazing!

Guests commented on the wonderful view of the surrounds from upstairs during the evening, and early into the morning! It is an absolutely beautiful location.

THE FOOD WAS FANTASTIC! BEST FOOD EVER! Every single guest loved the meal and the many who stayed up overnight, loved the breakfast in the morning. It was a great way to finish a great weekend. Your staff (both in the kitchen and at the bar) should be congratulated on getting everything done so perfectly and efficiently. Their service was to the highest standards.

Thankyou Erin for understanding the kind of simple, no fuss wedding we wanted and for helping to make it a reality. And to Mark for making our day run so smoothly by telling us where and when we should be somewhere, playing the violin for us while having photos, for 'MC ing' the evening and for creating a great atmosphere during the night.

Guests are saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to. Thankyou once again loxley and all of your staff. You made our day very special indeed!

Regards
Debbie Sosimenko

Hi Erin

We would like to thank yourself and all of the staff at Loxley for making our dream wedding come true on Saturday.

Everything was absolutely perfect. Everything ran according to plan and the staff were awesome. In particular we would like to thank Francesca (the girl who looked after us at breakfast on Sunday morning). She helped our bridal party out with food and drinks while we were having our photos done and right throughout the night. She was perfect on Sunday her service was impeccable.

I had a lot of comments that the food was the best a lot of people had had at a wedding and the venue was flawless.

The wedding was everything we had dreamt of plus more!!! I would recommend Loxley to anyone.

I cant thank you enough Erin for all of your efforts towards our wedding over the past year. If I had to do it all over again I wouldn’t change a thing.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANKYOU.

Regards

beautiful and romantic occasion.

Each and every time we talked to you Erin, we left knowing that you had a
great understanding of the type of wedding we wanted. Nothing was too much
for the staff at Loxley and the attention to detail was truly amazing.

The day itself was absolutely beautiful, right from Mark leading the bridal
party up the stairs with his magnificent violin playing, to the divine food
that people are still talking about.

To Erin and all the wonderful staff at Loxley,

Thank you all so much for such a wonderful wedding!

Nearly all of our guests have commented on the day, they all keep talking about the spectacular view, the delicious food and how it was one of the best weddings they have been to, (I know I am biased but it was the best one I have been to!).

As anyone who has gotten married or is planning a wedding knows it can be very stressful and full on but from the moment we arrived at Loxley for the first time our minds were put at ease, the staff were excellent and nothing was ever a hassle for any of them. Especially Erin, your help and guidance throughout this time was great, you set my mind at ease every time we spoke and thanks for keeping Justin's surprise helicopter arrival a secret as well. We know you organize so many weddings and have so many people to deal with but we always felt like ours was the only wedding you were organizing, nothing was of any bother and you always remembered every detail we had talked about previously.

Mark, thanks for being our MC and DJ you helped make the day and night flow and the music was great.

I only have one regret from the day, it was not long enough! I wish it could of lasted forever!

Once again thanks for making our special day one that we will never ever forget!

Hello Erin

Hope your well?

Thanks so much for being such a wonderful wedding coordinator. We had the best time at our wedding and can't believe all the great comments we are getting from guests saying what fun they had, how great the food was, the location was etc. Even though it rained, it's such a lovely location and with that balcony to use for photo's you don't miss out on taking advantage of the gorgeous views.

You were so easy to deal with, so happy and professional (especially with that last minute coach pick up saga). Thanks so much!

Look forward to hearing from you.

To Erin, Mark, Chris and All the Staff at Loxley,

We just wanted to take the time to thank you again for a wonderful evening on the 10th March this year.

The Loxley is a beautiful and private place that amased our guests. Some of the comments that we
get is “where did you find that place” or “can you get married again so we can stay at the Loxley again”.

From the day we booked our reception to the day of the wedding the service and attention that we received was impeccable. From the zillion questions we asked of poor Erin leading up to the wedding (which were never a problem) to the way things were set up and run on the day we cannot express our thanks enough!

Lead by Chris, all the staff on the night went above and beyond to make our night ours. Nothing was a
problem and everyone always had a drink, which was important to us. Chris and Erin, you should be proud of the team you have there.

Mark was amasing - from keeping everyone in order and everything running like clockwork to playing the
violin and piano. A beautiful selection of music presented professionally and exactly to our tastes…

The food was divine. We included canapés and may we say it was so nice to see something other than
the usual deep fried affair. From oysters to the watermelon shots we were impressed! We had two chefs attend our wedding who both gave the food a double thumbs up… The meals were perfect in every way.

Thanks again for everything, and congratulations on what we know is the best wedding venue in Sydney!

Just keep doing what you are doing and we know that many couples, like us, will take with them memories of that wedding day that is truly theirs.

Cheers,

Bill and Leonie Dockerill

Dear the staff of Loxley,

I would just like to say a very big thankyou for making our day so special. I know they say that your wedding is meant to be the best day of your life but I never really knew what this meant until the day we got married at your pictureseque venue. People are still commenting on how beautiful our wedding was, 8 weeks out from the date. Everything was just perfect! I have recommended you guys to everyone I know, whether it be for their wedding or even for a couple of nights stay.
I have made a copy of the professional photos for you. This way you can really see how special you made our day!

Dear Erin & Team Loxley,

Nathaniel & I wanted to thank the whole Loxley team for making our day more than perfect.....
The minute we parked out the front of the reception at the Loxley just to inquire, we looked around at the beautiful gardens, felt this absolute sereness about us & knew, without a doubt, that it was the place where we were going to choose to spend one of the biggest days of our lives & without reservation, our day was perfect from beginning to end. There are not enough words to decsribe the joy & happiness we felt on our day :)

Erin, your support & kindness from the moment we met, ensured that our day was smooth sailing the whole way from beginnig to end. We appreciate everything you did for us, nothing was ever too big or too small, you truly are a shining star.

Mark, thank you. Without you directing us throughout the night it would have been a stand still. Thank you for playing the wonderful live music on the piano for us, I was so "wowed" when I discovered that we would have the oportunity to have live music as it makes an atmosphere one hundred times more romantic & beautiful.
There were so many things happening all at once & there you were, calm & collected, shuffling us along patiently to the next part of the evening.

All of our guests commented on the great food, service & were in absolute awe of the perfect natural surroundings, curious as to how we discovered such a beautiful place....so many of our guests said that it was the best wedding they had ever been to. We are still in awe.

Breakfast the next morning with family, friends & a great view, on the verandah, was a great way to come down to earth the next day.

We recommend the Loxley to anyone who hopes to celebrate a beautiful, relaxed occasion in a place that provides excellent service & memories that will stay with you for always.

Thank you so, so, so, so, so, so much for helping to make our wedding day one that will be with us for always.

The Loxley is not your ordinary wedding reception place, it gives you so much more. We where blessed to decide on the Loxley as our Wedding reception. The Loxley provided us support & guidance through out the Wedding preparations and on the Wedding day. Nothing was too big or small for the Loxley staff to handle. The Loxley staff make you feel welcome & they are truly a team. The flexibility to stay at the Loxley accommodation before and after the wedding allowed us to bond with those closes to us and enabled the hype & excitement of our wedding day to continue.

I would like to thank you all for being a part of our special day.

Erin, Thank you so much for the time and effect you put into our wedding. You have been a huge help to us. And honestly we could not have done it without you! THANK YOU!

What can we say? - "exquisite, magical, mind blowing, out of this world"!!!

The day was perfect and we want to "Thank you" for your generosity in particular.

We had the best time and everyone we have spoken to says it was the best wedding they have ever attended, all thanks to you for aspiring to construct such a wonderful venue.

Your staff are to be congratulated, everyone involved on the day. You didn't know they were there, no fuss or fun fair.

The food was fabulous, congratulations to the chef.

We just want you to know we appreciated everything, although sad in a way the day came and went so quickly.

A wedding day is the most memorable day in anyone's life and to have the day run so smoothly is a credit to all involved and "Loxley" was the greatest venue Tegan & Brendan could have chosen.

Dear Erin,

"Thanks" for everything, the day was perfect.

You must be congratulated. We know how busy you are and you conduct yourself with the utmost professionalism. Nothing phases you and we are so graceful Tegan & Brendan's chose Loxley for their special day.

To all the staff "thanks" for all the hard work that goes into making the day so wonderful. The food was fabulous, compliments to the chef and the sandwiches made for us on the day "Thank you."

Everyone enjoyed the day because of you and the staff at Loxley.
Thanks again for a fantastic day.

Dear Paul,
Thank you so much for your generosity and support to make our special day absolutely perfect. We are so glad that we only considered Loxley for our magical wedding. Nowhere in Canberra even compares!!!

The effort you have put into establishing Loxley has shown why it is the best wedding venue in Sydney and the surrounding areas.

The location, atmosphere and the kindness from your professional staff is still being talked about by our family and friends. They have reported that it has been the best wedding their ever attended.

To Erin,
Thank you for all your assistance with leading up to and on the day of the wedding. Your patience and attention to detail ensured that we had a very special day. We could not have done it without you!

To Mark,
Thank you with providing us with your wonderful MC, DJ and exquisite musical talents. You made us both feel very at ease and made everything go so smoothly.

To Julie and the housekeeping staff,
Thank you for making the rooms absolutely beautiful, helping with the request from guests and arranging all those flowers for the reception!!!

To the chef and his staff,
Thank you for the delicious mouth watering food. It was just exceptional.

Dear Erin, Paul and the rest of the awesome artists at Loxley,

I spoke to Erin today, and with all her other wedding plans to finalise, and the Bride's with their Grooms, she still remembered our wedding, and asked me if our photographer had the baby yet!!

Paul, We love your "homestead" like feel to Loxley. The Timber work, the lower deck, and all the grounds are still in complete awe of our guests, its an artwork and all your staff are the artists. Over and Over I am asked how I found such a breathtaking venue!

My mother whom was apprehensive about not marrying in a church, said the view she and our Guests had faced behind our ceremony, was one of Gods finer creations with the hillside behind Loxley. (after she said that she kissed me, so I guess with your view she had our blessing! thank you!)

Someone had said to me they remember when you were putting it together years ago, that you had hoped it "takes off" Wow Paul it has, to infinity and beyond!

We are both so happy with our wedding day. We had been engaged for 5 years, and had decided to have a garden wedding with a picnic reception 'somewhere' in Kurrajong. Then I accidentally stumbled onto your website. The rest is an amazing journey, now wonderful history!

You, Erin have the most amazing natural aura about yourself that turns Brides wedding Lemons into wonderful bubbly Lemonade. From the "first date with Erin" questions to our breakfast day after the wedding you made our memory of Loxley one of the most beautiful pictures in our minds forever. Thank you for the privilege to experience Loxley's asset "Erin"
(by the way, thanks for the eggs too, very nice breakfast they made!)

Mark, a special thanks to you also, as we had no groomsmen, or bridesmaids, or anyone for that matter to be our spokesmen... you made the entire ceremony just perfect. From letting Jake playing the Piano, (I hope you did!) to your consistent musical talent, an MC skills throughout the evening!

Not forgetting the love who stayed at Loxley to have a breakky made by 6am because we hadn't thought of that before we booked our honeymoon tickets..(Hey...we may have 3hours up our sleeve to "sit" in the honeymoon room! Haha!)Huge thank you, cooked to perfection!

From our hearts, Thank you so, so much once again.

Craig & Anne Hawley (Starkey)

Thank you so much.

Dear Paul, Erin, Chefs & Housekeeping & staff

A big thank you to all of the staff at Loxley who made our wedding a beautiful experience.

Most of our guests were from either Sydney or interstate and we have now been married just over a month and guests are still talking about our wedding. Comments were made such as fantastic venue, fantastic food, great service and the best wedding they have been to or the wedding of the year. Loxley is just elegant and stunning and not to mention your wedding day becomes very simple when Loxley staff are involved.

Paul, you have a beautiful beautiful place and I can assure you there is no venue in the city of Sydney that would even come close to Loxley.

Erin, My gosh you hold your head high, you are very proud of your job and you assist with any request that comes your way. Well done because I think dealing with brides everyday would be a huge task.

Chefs, the food was to die for and thank you for allowing me to make adjustments to the menu to suit all my guests.

Housekeeping, Thank you for the little things you do like making the rooms perfect for all the guests and even assisting with jewellery for one of the mothers.

We will be back for lunch soon as well as bringing some friends with us !

Many thanks and take care all

Danielle & Steve Dibley

Dear Paul, Erin and Staff,

Just a short note to thankyou all for ANOTHER spectacular stay at Loxley. Chris and I were fortunate enough to have our reception at Loxley on 27th August 2005. 1 year ago tomorrow, and simply had to return for our 1st anniversary (Baby in tummy too!!) Our wedding was simply amazing. I'm imagining how many people say that, but our's was.

Paul and Erin, you are two of our most favourite people in the world. Erin, you are amazing at your job. Paul, Im sure we visit just to see you! Nothing was a bother for our wedding - NOTHING - your service and professionalism was outstanding, and only heightened by the sincerity and well wishes you both had for our happiness - which is extremely rare in this day and age. This sincerity shone through again, on our 1st anniversary stay.

The welcome was warm and inviting and reminded us of why we had chosen Loxley for our reception in the first place (that was after the chills up and down our spine as we drove in the driveway, bringing memories flooding back of our special day).

The chalet we stayed in was warm, homey and beautifully comfortable. We LOVE the fireplace!!! The bed was fit for a king and queen. The food, was once again, above anything we've ever had the experience of eating before. The chef working on the night we stayed was pleasant and accomodating...we wanted to bring him home!! Its amazing how, even with all the staff and other guests staying, we felt like we were the only people in the entire world. The view was spectacular also; evening and morning.

Our most favoured part was being able to take photos of ourselves, and me with my belly bump to show our little one when he arrives in January 07, where his mummy and daddy started their union in this life. We arrived at Loxley just on dark on the day of our wedding and missed alot of the photos we wanted taken in the grounds of Loxley, so it was extra special to be able to get these photos to add to our album and brag books. ie; explorers retreat, the big tree, the ponds, the gardens in general.

I could write forever and dont think I would ever be able to explain how relaxed, spoilt, happy and thrilled we were that we could spend our special occasion(s) at Loxley on Bellbird. We didnt want to leave (again). We tell everyone we know about you and your wonderful establishment and look forward, more than anything, to many many many future visits and stays with you. We will see you in a year with an extra "Heywood"! Thankyou again from the bottom of our hearts extended family!
From Chris & Sharon Heywood xo (and the 1 to come).

Dear Erin, Chris and all Loxley Staff,

WOW!! What an amazing day/night.

We're back in the UK now and still can't stop talking about our gorgeous reception.
Thankyou Erin for all your time, your effort and the patience you showed us in helping to organise our wedding from the other side of the world. It is a night that will remain forever in all our memories.
Chris, the food was absolutely fantastic. We couldn't have imagined the food would so brilliantly compliment the beautiful feel of the night.
The rest of the staff were great, we didn't even realise they were there, yet they had to be as the night ran so perfectly.
Thankyou to Mark for being such an accommodating, talented MC.

We had the most amazing night of our lives and don't think anything can replace that - pure brilliance!

Take care and best wishes,

Nathan and Cecilia Perkins

To Paul, Erin, Mark and everyone at the Loxley,

We cannot thank you enough for the effort involved in making our wedding so fantastic! From helping Luke organise his proposal last January (even opening up for us when you were on holiday), through to our wedding day, you went above and beyond anything we expected.

All of the guests commented on how impeccable the service was and how relaxing and beautiful the Loxley is.

The food was mouth watering and served so quickly –no one had to wait for their meal. Mark played beautifully and made everything run so smoothly, it was so nice to be serenaded by the violin while we were having our photos taken!

Erin you are a miracle worker! You made everything so simple and stress free even when I had to change the seating plan twice the day before!
We can’t stop looking at our photos – We want to do it all over again without changing a thing!

See you for our next milestone!

Friday, 10 June 2005
Paul,

Jodi and I wanted to make you aware of our thoughts regarding our big day at Loxley last Friday, the 10th. This was to be a small and intimate wedding.

From the moment I walked into the room on the evening, through the fireside ceremony, drinks and dinner, to the beautiful chalet accommodation, it was obvious to everyone there that Loxley is something special. The presentation and taste of the food was sensational and special thanks must go to Mark and Rebecca for looking after our every need as the evening progressed.


The attention to detail of your staff and their ability to exceed expectations puts Loxley on another level. Everyone finished the evening with a warm glow, and a large part of that is due to Loxley and its’ staff. You helped make this day even more special. Thank you very much.

Kindest Regards,

Jodi and Gordon Middlemiss

Thursday, 5 May 2005
Dear Erin,

I just wanted to say a big thank to you and all at Loxley for the help that you gave us in making our wedding day totally perfect!

I wouldn't have changed a thing and we couldn't fault Loxley on anything at any stage of our dealings. You & your team are totally professional and the food on the day was sensational. I really appreciate the effort your chef put into the menu to cater for our guests who were vegetarians or celiacs. I was nervous initially at having a cocktail party for our wedding, but it all was just as I had imagined.

I could totally put my mind at rest (yes that is amazing for me as I normally worry about everything!) and just concentrate on having a good time and marrying the man of my dreams!

Our thanks again go out to you and the whole team for making our wedding day such a fantastic event. Loxley is a venue that I'll be sure to recommend for a wedding, weekend away or even a great cocktail party. What a stunning venue with such beautiful views. Definitely number one in the Hawkesbury!! See you on our anniversary!

Regards,
Sara & Brett Connor.

Dear Erin, Paul, Mark and the Loxley Team,

Thank you for all of the assistance you gave us in making our wedding day so special.

It was the small things that meant the most. Mark playing the grand piano during dinner, the individual seafood entrees, the helpful approach of the staff... and the fact that we could arrive by helicopter, touching down just metres away from our suprised guests! Many of them have remarked that it was the best wedding they'd attended - we believe your efforts played no small part in their experience of the evening.

Thank you so much.

Dear Erin and all the staff at Loxley on Bellbird Hill,

Thank you so much for making Sarah & David's wedding day the wonderfully memorable experience that it was. The venue itself was magnificent and impeccably presented.

From when we made contact with you nothing was too much trouble. At all times we were made to feel that our satisfaction was prime importance to you. And more than satified we most certainly were.

Our guests were all complimentary about the superb meal and its service, and we would ask that you pass on our most sincere thanks to the Kitchen staff.

Our thanks also to Mark. The music he played was just as requested and certainly added to the ambience of the occasion.

From our point of view the fact that we were able to thoroughly enjoy the reception, without having to worry about even the slightest detail, was fantastic and is a tribute to your co-ordination, and also to the staff as a whole.

We can only recommend Loxley in the highest terms.
