Our young grandchildren love the fast food restaurants with playscapes. The Tree House is Playscape Heaven! The largest that we have ever seen and easily multiple times the size of the largest we have seen. Being Saturday, we’ve now had a few days to reflect on the wedding. It was truly the best day of our lives and it definitely wouldn’t have been possible without every single one of you. Would you believe that this amazing athlete took on the 2008 Summer Beijing Paralympics when she was just 13? Not only that, she was the youngest person to be appointed an MBE at 14, what a hero! 6. When our Caryn was spotted on TV Along with our friends at Chewton Glen Hotel, we absolutely loved having strictly stars Joe Sugg and Dianne Buswell open our RHS 2019 Chelsea Flower Show treehouse. A crowd gathered as they stood at the entrance to cut the ribbon along with Chewton Glen’s Executive Director Andrew Stembridge and our very own MD, Andy Payne. r o m aine hearts lettuce, cherry tom ato, r a dish, corn tortilla crumbles, red o nion, coriande r, grilled corn, c ucumbers, roasted ancho & sea salt vin aigrette

There are not enough words to express our absolute gratitude towards each and everyone of you for being a huge part of our best day ever. I’m going to start with the venue itself. What an absolutely gorgeous place. We have dreamt of this day for a long time but we were always second guessing our venue choices, until we found you. The location, the decor, the lightning, and all the way down to the smallest details like the wooden bar, the antler light detail & the beautiful natural flooring are things from our dreams.

7. When Mark Gregory loved our tea break box…

Michael- from the moment we met you you helped calm any nerves we had and made us feel we were in capable, reassuring hands. Everything on the day ran like a dream thanks to you and your team- thank you for all the updates throughout the day and for removing any stress we had. Chelsea- you made things so seamless and always took the care to respond to our queries in the same day which was so appreciated. You really helped make our dream day become a reality through your attention to detail! green beans, hearts of artichoke, baby heirloom tomatoes, red onion, toasted pine nut, chia seeds, quinoa, california plum tossed in our signature spicy dijon vinaigrette We couldn’t have achieved this without the brilliant work of Architectural Plants, who we collaborated with to create the wonderful woodland planting. Visitors loved the beautiful and feathery Mimosa tree and the scented Jasmine in particular.

With trade stands and exhibitors, however, we’re chasing stars. Gold stars, to be exact – and we couldn’t have been happier to discover that the RHS awarded our treehouse exhibit with 5 of them. The Chelsea TreeHouse is an adventure destination perfect for kids and parents alike, with an incredible climbing structure, five entertaining slides, and areas specifically tailored for babies and toddlers. mexican-style flatbread featu r i n g w o o d - f i r e d b a k e d o r g a n i c w h e a t & g r a in f l a t b r e a d d u s t e d w / e v o o , g a r l ic Would also love to thank you for being so good to the dogs, and for allowing them to be there in the first place! They are a big part of our lives so it means a lot to have them there.In the Dud Egg scene, the first time the goo explodes from the egg, it covers all of Clarence's face, but the second time, it only goes in his mouth. At the reception, having the chef come out to explain each course and what everything was was a delightful touch. Each and every person remarked to us how delicious our breakfast was. 'Best wedding food of their life' was a common refrain.

Again thank you so much for everything you, Michael and the team have done for us in the run up to our wedding and on the day. It was the best day of our lives! Corgis, superheroes and a whole lot of plants – phew, Chelsea Flower Show 2019 is over! As always, it’s been a blast and we’re so pleased that the treehouse went down a treat. There were certainly lots of ‘wows’ to be heard as people walked up the spiral staircase – and it’s a good thing too, because the treehouse is going to be making its way to the Chewton Glen Hotel and Spa in a few weeks where it will need to enchant and captivate children for generations to come.tequila & evoo-marinated king prawn, cherry tomatoes, melted mozza -rella, piquillo peppers, topped w/ crispy shallots Sian & Chelsea were both miracle workers and nothing was ever too hard for them. The speed at which we received replies was amazing & when things maybe weren’t possible they always had alternative ideas to share with us which were so appreciated. All of the other staff at the orange tree were also amazing! Waiting staff & bar staff were so friendly and helpful. The food all day from drinks reception, dinner and evening food everything was out of this world. Nothing was ever an issue and everyone was of great help, including yourself Chelsea as I tortured you on a regular basis. The run up to the wedding was so relaxed, you answered every question I had with no hesitation. The venue was beautiful, clean, warm and welcoming. We cannot fault anything and will be sure to recommend Orange Tree House to anyone looking for a wedding venue.

The Chelsea Treehouse, located in Chelsea, Michigan, is a fantastic adventure destination for you and your family. One evening during the show week, everyone in the Blue Forest team got an exciting message from Project Manager Charlie Kitchenham… who had spotted with his eagle eyes a certain Admin Assistant of ours strolling along Main Avenue looking too cool for school. Simon- the food was absolutely out of this world, all the guests couldn’t have spoken more highly of the meal (which we knew they would after the food tasting!). Thank you so much for accommodating all our choices and dietary requirements and for the seamless service. We would like to say a huge thank you to you all for everything that you did to make our wedding so amazing and perfect! We had the best day that we could have ever imagined.Finally, to the bar staff and floor staff for being so efficient and friendly, even the young girls got involved in our sing along during service for the meal, it was a breath of fresh air to see them all happy and enjoying their jobs! Their service and attitude are a credit to you. While the BBC is somewhat restricted in terms of the exhibits and trade stands they can feature in their Chelsea TV coverage, we were still very happy to let them film their opening scene for Episode 8 on our treehouse! We follow the same rules that your child’s school does… walk, no wrestling, ‘down only’ on the slides are a few basics. Now, to the star of the show, Michael. You are worth your weight in gold. Being a couple who have never been to a wedding we were unsure of how they ran, who was in charge & how we were going to know where to be at what time. Michael took every stress away. Not ONCE did we worry about the running of the day because Michael was there to direct us. Michael, you have an amazing talent of being there with us the whole day but also making it completely about us, and we will be forever grateful for you.
