We had a good laugh throughout, and it never felt rushed or scripted. Lunch was absolutely fantastic, and a real highlight of the day. To top it all off, they surprised Thiago with a birthday tiramisu and a full sing-song in the tavern, which was such a thoughtful and joyful touch, completely unexpected and really made the day special. They were also great at suggesting photo opportunities and even offering to take photos of us, which we really appreciated.”
