I held my son's Christening celebration at Abbey Sports and Leisure club. Mandy elegantly dressed the room to perfection. The kids loved the soft play area too. It was such a lovely day filled with love and happiness. The cocktails went down a treat too! Thank you so much Mandy and the rest of the team
