Lismore like to know a great deal about what you want before they're willing to quote fully for weddings.
For example, they've had weddings in the past that go on until three or four in the morning, and then guests who aren't staying in the castle return in the middle of the afternoon the following day for brunch for 70 or something - obviously that's a whole different ball game for their staff than a party which winds down earlier, with no special requirements the next day. They won't quote a price until specific about that. They can't do a hot meal, but will do a cold buffet (they can do a hot veg, like jacket potatoes with it). There would be a dessert and a cheese board.
