Een perfecte locatie voor een Kerstfeest!

Ons Kerstfeest met 110 collega’s bij Fort Vechten in Bunnik was een avond om nooit te vergeten! De unieke locatie midden in de natuur gaf direct een warme, sfeervolle ambiance die perfect aansloot bij de feestelijke gelegenheid. De organisatie was vlekkeloos — van de logistiek tot de aankleding en timing van het programma. Onze complimenten aan het team dat alles tot in de puntjes had voorbereid.

Wij hebben enorm genoten van onze winterse bruiloft op deze prachtlocatie!

Het was van begin tot eind een hele fijne samenwerking met het team van Fort Vechten. Het fort is als locatie prachtig in de zomer, maar is ook een van de weinige locaties die heel geschikt is om in de winter te trouwen. Het team was heel fijn om mee te sparren over alle mogelijke opties (er zijn er heel veel...) en de dag verliep uiteindelijk ook heel soepel doordat alles zo goed begeleid werd.
