11/15/2011

The Hong Kong Jockey Club's Happy Valley Racecourse has been honoured in the 2011 Bridal Awards for the second year in a row, once again for providing the “Best Club Wedding Banquet”.   The award acknowledges the Club’s customer-centred philosophy and its excellent and comprehensive wedding banquet services.  The Racecourse has long been a popular banquet venue among local wedding couples.

Organised by ESDlife, the annual Bridal Awards are aimed at recognising outstanding business entities for their wedding services, based on feedback from bridal couples and public voting.  This year's programme started in late May when members of the public were invited to nominate their candidates.   This was followed by public voting, completed in July.

There are 12 banquet venues in total at Happy Valley and Sha Tin Racecourses, providing a range of flexible venues to suit either Chinese or Western-style wedding banquets of different scales.  Two designated venues are also available for celebrant services. Couples are able to enjoy a photo-shooting session with a pair of Shetland ponies, adding a special romantic touch to the banquet and leaving the couples and their guests with unforgettable memories of the big day.

In support of ecological sustainability initiated by the World Wide Fund For Nature Hong Kong (WWF), the Club is offering alternatives for shark's fin soup which has long been a traditional item on wedding menus.  Customers can choose to replace it with a double-boiled soup containing precious ingredients and high nutrients.  The Club has also followed the recommendations of the WWF Seafood Guide in developing ocean-friendly menus that offer sustainable seafood choices.
