Dear Panama Dining Room team,
WOW was the most common word we heard from our family and friends all night during our wedding.
The atmosphere that you helped create was amazing, and is a feeling and memory that we will never forget. Along with the wonderful food and fantastic service from the hospitality team, we could not have wished for anything better.
To cap it all off, working with you was such a delight. You were easy to work with and also very helpful with suggesting recommendations to help make our special day, that little bit better.
Thank you again for your amazing work, for contributing to our magical day and for being a big part of this special moment in our lives.
Thank you, Cassandra & Luke (married on Saturday 18th May, 2019)
