Johnny Ward (Fair City / Love Hate) & Brenda Murphy July 8th

As soon as myself and Brenda met Lorna Mc keon we knew we had found our perfect wedding planner! This incredible woman is so warm, kind and bends over backwards to make sure you feel unique and special in the build up to the big day. What makes Lorna stand out amongst the rest is that "Yes" is always the answer and she will always go to great lengths to accommodate exactly what you request in the most professional way. Lorna takes away any stress or concerns you may have towards the big day by coming up with super and faultless ideas that will always make you leave feeling super excited about what you were worried about in the first place! Not only is Lorna second to none but she has also become a very close friend in the organisation of our wedding. We really could not feel more special!

 

Maria & Dermot - August 11th

The Westgrove Hotel is the perfect Wedding Venue with the most amazing staff!! We recently had our Wedding Reception here and also our Day 2 and we had the most magical Weekend! We were treated like VIP's for the entire time we were there! When we first walked into the Reception to attend the Wedding Fair back in 2021, I turned to Dermot and said "Wow" I was blown away by the beautiful Staircase and instantly fell in love with this Hotel. I knew it was a very special place and needless to say we booked our Wedding Reception with Lorna that day! Lorna the Wedding Coordinator is top class! she is absolutely amazing at her job. Her attention to detail is just unbelievable and I don't think the word "No" is in her Vocabulary! Lorna always went above and beyond to ensure all our requests were fulfilled. She is such a lovely calm person and has a real gift at keeping the Bride calm and relaxed in the run up to the big day. She is a credit to the Westgrove Hotel they are so lucky to have her! We cannot thank her enough for creating the most stunningly beautiful Wedding Reception for us.  I also have to mention something very close to our hearts.  Lorna and her team were absolutely amazing looking after our daughter Lucy on our very special day and treated her like the VIP that she is!  Our daughter Lucy was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes on the 9th of February this year.  Lucy was our TOP priority when it came to planning our wedding.  I explained to Lorna that Lucy is insulin dependent and all her meals have to be weighted to measure the carbohydrates as Lucy gets insulin for the exact amount of carbs that she consumes.  I sat down with Lorna and she took the time to listen carefully and plan every single detail with me. We went through Lucy's entire food intake for the day, her meal plan, treats, drinks and everything else.  Lorna was so understanding and gave me all the time in the world which really put me at ease.  She went above and beyond to ensure Lucy was looked after.  Lucy had to have to meals weighed out by the Chef and Lorna personally ensured this was done and also ensured that Lucy was served each course first before anyone else.  As Lucy has to take her insulin before her food, it is so important especially at a large function, that her meals are served quickly and at the time specified so that she wasn't waiting for a meal as this would cause her blood sugars to drop very quickly and lead to a [hypo].  Even the Candy Cart had to be tailord to suit Lucy so it all had to be fun size treats in their little packages with the Carbohydrates listed on each packet.  For the finger food served at the drinks reception Lorna ensured that there were 10g snacks available for Lucy, i.e Cookies, Tuc Crackers, Popcorn and little weighed out bags of treats.  Lucy needs 10g snacks throughout the day in between meal times to keep her sugal levesl in range and to prevent Hypos.  We knew Lorna was on top of everything when it came to looking after Lucy and it really, really made our day stress free.  Lorna went above and beyond from our first meeting until the very last second of the night making sure the most important person to us on the day was cared for.  She was genuinely kind, loving, caring, responsible and professional, I don't think our day could have been as amazing if it wasn't for her. The biggest thanks to Lorna and her amazing team at The Westgrove, we can't wait to go back and visit very soon.  All our love from Maira & Dermot Cogan.

  

Louise & Eoghan July 22nd

We recently had our wedding in the Westgrove Hotel, to say it is a stunning hotel is an understatement! From the moment we booked our wedding, Lorna and her incredible team of co-ordinators were on hand to guide us through everything. No request was too big or too small for them, they went above and beyond for us and honestly made planning our wedding so enjoyable and stress free. The attention to detail, communication and support from the wedding team is second to none, they all made us feel like the most important couple in the world. We opted for a package with the hotel which I would highly recommend. Not only is it incredible value for money, but having so much included in the package really takes so much of the stress out of planning a wedding. We could really enjoy the build up and the preparations knowing that our wedding was in such good hands. All of our guests had the most amazing time at our wedding, everyone was raving about how delicious the food was, how there were several offers of extra servings and that the wine flowed all evening! We honestly couldn't have asked for anymore from the hotel. Lorna, Lydia and Bonnie really are a dream team, they are so beautiful both inside and out and will go the extra mile to ensure that your day is absolutely everything you have always hoped and dreamed it would be. Our day was so special. The setting of the hotel, the grand staircase, the roof top terrace, the gardens, they are all exquisite and really have the wow factor. I'm so delighted that we chose the Westgrove Hotel for our wedding, our dreams were turned into reality and it was the best day of our lives. Thank you so much to Lorna, Lydia, Bonnie and all of the staff of the Westgrove who work so tirelessly and are so dedication to their professions. You guys are amazing and a piece of my heart will always belong to this hotel and all the staff.

 

Jayne & Ian 18 August 2023

From our perspective we genuinely feel we fell on our feet with The Westgrove and particularly Lorna. When we came to the wedding fair there was such a good atmosphere in the place. It was happy, fun relaxed the band was in full swing the drinks flowing and just not quite what I expected. To be honest I don't know what I expected because we actually never look at anywhere else, we knew it was the place for us. When it came to the package and what was on offer we couldn't have got better value. Typically when you buying a package there is a perception of maybe substandard or good for what your getting type thing but I can safely say with out reservation the suppliers the westgrove use are anything but. From the flowers, to the band to our amazing wedding cake there is not one single thing I could fault. What's even better is when I was speaking with each supplier on different things, because they know the hotel and Lorna, everything was soooo smooth and easy there was absolutely nothing to worry or stress about. What ye offer truly is FANTASTIC. On the night of the wedding the room looked out of this world. I mean I was in awe, it was stunning. Bonnie couldn't have been more helpful and professional she had everyrything organised to a fine art as did the lovely lads working the bar that night, no one was left waiting. Our guest couldn't get over the place and how fabulous it was. Myself and Ian felt so proud. And lastly Lorna (wedding coordinator). I never felt that I got my bridezilla moment because dealing with her was so easy going and hassle free. ???? I couldn't have worried even if I tried. No matter what I asked or queried she had an answer, a solution or a plan. I'm so grateful that she looked after us the way she did. Lorna is absolutely fantastic at what she does and honestly we just want to thank you her and the whole team so much. I also wanted to mention coming up to the wedding Lydia looked after us for a couple of days when Lorna was away from the desk and what a lovely lovely person she is. Like Lorna she was a breath of fresh air

 

Sean & Stephen - May 21st

Myself and my husband, Stephen, were married in the Westgrove Hotel in May. Lorna Mc Keon was our wedding coordinator and we were blessed to have her. From the beginning, Lorna sat down with us and, before we even started talking about the wedding, she got to know us as people. How we met, what we were watching on Netflix (we both were watching Schitts Creek at the time) and created a foundation of trust with us. Having visited other hotels and met other wedding coordinators, most of them seemed to be a walking sales pitch, but Lorna was down to earth and told us her experience of working in the Westgrove and about her life. Her passion and her sense of humour made us fall in love with the place.

Being a same-sex couple, we were apprehensive about how we would be treated but, with Lorna, she only saw two people in love who wanted to get married. Our entire experience with the entire hotel felt genuine and respected.

The day of the wedding, Lorna kept us calm and even took us aside at one point just to take a breath and take everything in. She was kind and caring to both of us as well as each of our family members. Family means everything to us so to see someone be as loving with them meant the world to us.  The Westgrove hotel and its staff are truly amazing. It is where we were married, where we created a day we will always remember and where we will visit again and again. This is because of Lorna McKeon. She is the heart and soul of the hotel and we can never thank her enough.

 

Jenny & Bryan August 14th

What can I say only if you are looking for a fabulous venue then look no further. The Westgrove Hotel are fantastic, so helpful when planning your big day I went in for out 1st meeting with the wedding planner lorna with a vision of what I wanted and she sat and listened took it all in and from there it just got better and better. I had a few different things I wanted on the day screens for video couple of entertainers etc so time was a big thing so one didn't delay the other. Lorna sat we us and advised us what would work best and I have to say it all ran like clock work. I have to say a massive thank you to the amazing chef John, when I say he was put to the test its an under statement. I have allergies but not a very common one which ment amy food for me had to be done from scratch to leave out the ingredients i couldn't have along with other family members that had different allergies too. I sent a list of all the stuff I couldn't have to them and on the day of our food tasting I was blown away with all the hard work and effort that he had put in so I could sit and eat the same foods as the rest of my family without having to worry. The grounds as amazing for photos and the stair case is show stopping. The staff are wonderful from the time you walk in to the time you leave your made feel like your the only one there. I could go on for ever about this venue and all the staff it's been so amazing and the most hassle free planning I have ever done and its all down to the professionalism and knowledge that the staff have at the Westgrove. Can't thank them enough.

 

Kelly & Jack October 7th

We cannot put into words how amazing this hotel and staff are! From booking our wedding in 2020 to now, they have all went above and beyond for us. Lorna has been a dream to work with! She’s so friendly, welcoming, calming and amazing at what she does. Nothing was ever an issue and she was always so happy to help and answer the many of questions we had throughout the past 2 years. You’re in very safe hands with Lorna! We went with the ‘all inclusive’ package. It’s most of the work done for you already. All of the suppliers are fantastic - leaving it very hard to choose. The food, drink and atmosphere in the hotel is out of this world!, not to mention the beautiful staircase! The amount of compliments we received from our guests about this venue was unreal. We even had a few book to stay again already! On the wedding day, Lorna & Bonnie made sure everything ran smoothly, along with looking after us and all of our guests. All of the staff involved were so friendly and professional. We had the best day ever and it’s all down to the amazing team at the Westgrove. Really cannot recommend this venue enough! It holds a special place in our hearts now. 

 

Ann & Derek

Thank You all for an absolutely Fantastic day on Sunday 8th October for our wedding. From start to finish the Westgrove Hotel in Clane co Kildare has been the absolutely best venue for a wedding I have encountered for a long time.The attention to detail and the care lavished on us by you and your team was second to none. From the time yourself and Bonnie met us in the car to the time that Lydia made sure we were happy and had all our belongings the next morning before we left ,the staff,didn't put a foot wrong.
They were exceptional. Nothing was too much trouble, they were friendly, professional and extremely efficient.
Everybody said how good the food was, how great the staff were so it just wasn't us who thought so...
Lydia was a joy. She was so helpful and so professional and so friendly and obviously very hard working.
I was amazed to see Bonnie in the Kitchen the next morning!! She actually gave me my breakfast but later seemed to be helping everyone. She was lovely.
And of course Lorna there was You! From our first meeting I absolutely knew We were in good hands.
No question went unanswered at any time and I was never made feel stupid for asking odd questions and even letting my very nervous brother view the ceremony room the week before was a further indication of the care you give to your couples. Ours was a small wedding but you never ever made us feel it was any less important than a bigger one.
The ceremony room looked Magical on the day and the dining room looked beautiful.
You work tremendously hard and it shows!
Thank you from the bottom of out hearts.
I will happily recommend the Westgrove for years to come..
Sincerely kind Regards
Ann Mc Mullan

 

Jennifer & Ciaran

From the first time we viewed The Westgrove, we knew it was our venue. We had only looked at one other but it blew us away. We were already sold on what great value the all inclusive package was but the venue and team really nailed it for us. Our favourite part was the area for the drinks reception, it just flows so well. Lorna, Lydia and the team were always very responsive and helpful. We live not too far from the venue so Lorna was always open to us popping in while passing if we had any queries. We first saw the hotel during covid so hadn’t seen it fully set up. The wedding showcases later on gave us a really good idea of how our day would go and we were so excited. The amount of extra touches that the hotel include like decorations and table plan is amazing. All of the vendors to choose from on the all inclusive package are highly experienced and professional. It took out so much of the leg work when planning our wedding. Our guests have not stopped telling us what a fantastic day they had. Bonnie, Ellie and their team have had so many well deserved compliments on the service and the food is unbelievable. We were spoiled for choice after our menu tasting and had some tough decisions! Our little girl was the star of the show on our day and The Westgrove were so accommodating in terms of a wedding for a young family. Nothing was too much trouble. We highly recommend a winter wedding in this venue. The Christmas decorations are a stunning backdrop for photos, especially the big tree in the foyer and all the garlands with lights. It was so stunning. If I was to give one recommendation for future couple.  Ask if the bridal suite is available for photos if you have time as there are loads of huge windows in there. We’re so sad our fantastic day has passed but we will definitely be back to The Westgrove in future

 

Mark Lovett Celebrant

Lorna is a wonderful professional to deal with. Nothing is ever a problem and as a Wedding professional myself, Lorna has always managed to stay in contact with me to discuss what ceremonies are coming up for us both and how we can manage to make everything go smoothly for the couple. Every couple I have spoken to past, and present has only spoken words of heartfelt gratitude to Lorna, they cannot speak highly enough and even the couples I have recommended Lorna to, have booked the Westgrove Hotel for their own wedding. They love how Lorna makes everything so easy for the couple and takes the stress out of the wedding planning. To say Lorna goes above and beyond would be an understatement. She bends over backwards for every couples and checks every little detail to make sure everything goes accordingly with no slip ups on the day. What I love about Lorna is she takes the time to get to know you and your family and every time you are in Lorna’s company in the Westgrove Hotel, it’s like meeting her for the very first time. Lorna has a smile that is very heartfelt and welcoming. As a Wedding celebrant I love the rapport I built up with Lorna and I wish I could have the same relationship with other wedding co-ordinators in other hotels.

 

Ellen & Sean, May 20th

A couple of weeks removed from the wedding now and we are still buzzed. An amazing day. What can we say about the service other than it was second to none. Lorna is sensational at what she does she’s so attentive and never makes you feel anything other than comfortable and welcome. It was an amazing experience and we couldn’t even make up a complaint! We will now always mention this establishment to anyone who is planning on getting married and anyone who will listen! Thanks again for everything!

 

Naomi & Stephen, September 3rd

I can not recommend the Westgrove highly enough from the moment we walked in to the hotel a year before myself and Stephen felt so at ease. Lorna was inviting, honest, funny and so professional we just knew there and then the westgrove was for us. I didn’t once worry not even on my wedding day Lorna and the team had everything handled. Even Lorna doing last minute dress alterations in the hall way and done without hesitation. They all went above and beyond for our wedding… The food was amazing the dessert to die for and the staff in the reception hall absolutely amazing they had everything timed so well and it made the experience even better.. A million thank yous wouldn’t be enough for what the westgrove done for us. 

 

Niamh & Dean, June 3rd

Just had our wedding in The Westgrove Hotel....what can we say... from start to finish the whole thing was fantastic. Lorna the wedding coordinator and her team went above and beyond to ensure a stress free and very special service and ceremony. We worried for nothing. I can not recommend Lorna and Lydia enough. From their general manager Bonnie to the banqueting staff and reception team, they all did their very best for us. We really felt like VIPs. We had the All Inclusive wedding package and it was well worth it. Compliments are still coming in about the food... delicious and piping hot which is very rare at a banquet. The choices in their package are more than adequate. We had a lovely cake provider (Bev, Amazing Cakes), lovely flowers, great band (uptownband.ie) and DJ and a fun selfie mirror (Tony). The whole thing flowed seamlessly!

 

Pamela & Vincent, May 19th

Absolutely amazing venue for a wedding, we had a wonderful day. The hotel went above and beyond for all of our special requests, and nothing was too much work for them. The decoration of the civil ceremony room and the banqueting hall was absolutely beautiful. The staff were very attentive and professional. We absolutely would definitely recommend Lorna on her team to lead the way on your wedding.

 

Andrea & Gerry, March 24th

On the 24th of March 2023, I had my wedding at The Westgrove Hotel.  It was absolutely amazing!   The hotel is stunningly beautiful and all the staff are very friendly and very helpful.  A big Thank You to our amazing wedding coordinator Lorna Mc Keon - her support and recommendations were outstanding.  A big thank you to Andrew and his team who were on top with everything regarding the service.  Every single one of our guests had a great time and have been raving about the hotel, service & staff.  Food was exceptional, high standard from the presentation to food tasting, a big thank you to the kitchen staff and their hard work. I personally was very impressed to be greeted by the General Manger Bonnie and her involvement was very helpful too, thank you.  Overall, 10 out of 10 Highly Recommended for every event you want to have you’ll be assured that you and your guests are going to be looked after. I will definitely return to Westgrove Hotel, thank you SO MUCH!

 

Chrissie & Jody, August 28th

We had our wedding here and it was beyond amazing, it was everything we could ever have dreamed of and so much more. We couldn't have done it without Lorna who worked tirelessly with us to help create one of the most magical days of our lives. Big shout out to Bonnie for absolutely everything . There really aren't words to convey the professionalism and the creativity of this hotel. The food was absolutely amazing and the day ran like clockwork. The ladies on reception were so helpful and no request was too much.  Sharon in particular was a pleasure to deal with. Fabulous hotel , fabulous staff , fabulous day with fabulous memories made.

 

Ciara & Paul, December 31st

Myself and my partner are absolutely thrilled with the service we have been given from Lorna, from day one she has been an absolute god send, nothing was a problem and everything has been so stress free. Food is amazing and plenty of gluten free options, rooms are spotless. Everything you could ever need is supplied in the Wedding Package we chose. We just simply decided what we would like and which suppliers we wanted and now have nothing to worry about until the day, so simple and easy. I never thought wedding planning could be so easy, with Lorna and the Westgrove everything is taken care of. Highly recommended!!!

 

Jenny & Bryan August 14th

All around fantastic easy experience, Lorna was amazing on the run up and on the day of the wedding. They made us feel relaxed and helped the day run extremely smoothly. I couldn’t be happier with the experience I had with the Westgrove hotel. Everyone I have talked to have complemented how well the day went. I also would like to extend my thanks to Bonnie who was also with me throughout calming me down and announcing us into the dining hall, Thank you to everyone. Such a special experience, one that we won’t ever forget. 

 

Niamh & James, August 13th

Myself and James aren't on social media, so we can't share our absolute joy at having our wedding at Westgrove with people in that way. So we wanted to send you some feedback here and say that if you wanted to share our contact details with anyone thinking about booking with yourselves, to please do so.

From the time we were shown around the venue before booking to checking out the morning after our wedding, our experience with the Westgrove Hotel was nothing short of exemplary. All the staff we interacted with - wedding planning, reservations, bar and restaurant - were an absolute pleasure to deal with and we felt so well looked after at every visit.

The whole wedding planning process was made so easy by having the package with yourselves, and I have to say each supplier we dealt with were absolutely lovely. I would recommend each of them to anyone booking their wedding in the future.

So many of our guests gave such enthusiastic feedback on the food and staff on the day itself, saying they were so well looked after. It was wonderful to hear that, so please do thank all the staff who took such good care of us on the day. 

The rooms we stayed in - the apartment on Friday and the Strawberry Suite on the Saturday - were both so comfortable and spacious, and the breakfasts both mornings (what of them we could eat!) were delicious.

Thank you for organising our guest book set up and ensuring everything was tidied up and organised for us to bring home again the next day. The spaces for the ceremony, drinks and dinner were all beautifully set up and to be honest, everything felt a bit like a dream! We were moved from one beautiful surrounding to the next, didn't have to worry about a thing and the day was just so much fun.

We had such a fantastic day, as did all of our guests, so if there's any website or survey we can leave our positive feedback for the Westgrove Hotel, please do let us know and we would be happy to share it. 

Thanks again to you both and your fantastic colleagues for a wonderful day!

 

 Leanne & Connor, July 29th

We had our wedding in The Westgrove on the 29th of July. From our very first visit we felt as though we had found our dream venue. 
The grounds are beautiful, the staircase is fabulous and the rooftop terrace where we held our ceremony was amazing.
Every member of staff that we met was professional, friendly and couldn't be any more helpful.

Lorna is just a beautiful soul to work with, you can tell she really loves her job. All messages were answered promptly by herself or Debbie, always helpful and always able to have a bit of banter about me being slightly nuts  they never made me feel as though I was a burden in anyway.
Bonnie kept the day running so smoothly, we've had numerous people compliment us on how well the day flowed and how it's the only wedding they've attended that everything ran to the exact times that it was meant to!

The wait staff were incredibly helpful and did a great job, and the bar staff were great fun all night!
The all inclusive package had everything you could need, the vendors are nearly all amazing to deal with and  go out of their way to be accommodating with any requests we had.

We had an entirely gluten free menu... the entire dinner including dessert, the canapés at the drinks reception, the midnight food and the breakfast the next morning. The kitchen staff really outdone themselves because it was delicious! 
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Westgrove to anyone  we had our dream day there and it was all thanks to the amazing and tireless work of the staff there. Thank you so much for everything, we can't wait to come stay again 

 

Lorraine & Damien, July 1st

We had our wedding here on 01st July 2022 and it was amazing. From the moment we visited our 1st wedding fair at the Westgrove we knew it was the place for us but unfortunately due to covid we had to hold out longer than planned. But it was worth the wait. Everything was amazing, the venue, the ceremony room, the function room, the food, the staff, the rooms. Couldn't fault a thing. Lorna went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect for us and it really was. Looking forward to visiting again. 100% recommend the venue for any future couples. Thank you for everything. Lorraine & Damien

 

Louise & Brian, June 24th

We had the most amazing day from start to finish in the Westgrove. Lorna  and Debbie answered all our questions with patience and no request was an issue for them. The room for the ceremony was so beautiful and romantic and the food was absolutely amazing. Each and every one of the staff went above and beyond to make our day the most perfect day that we could possible imagine. Everything was perfect and we could not have asked for any more. We would highly recommend the Westgrove hotel to any couples thinking about it. You will have the most amazing experience and a day to cherish forever. 

 

Jemma & Derek, June 3rd

We loved the friendly, non-corporate feel of the hotel - especially from the staff. We were treated with respect and understanding. In other hotels it can feel quite cold and that they read from a script. In The Westgrove Hotel, we were made feel completely at ease. The friendly and professional were one of the highlights for us. The venue itself is beautiful and the All Inclusive Package took so much stress off of us in terms of organizing and planning the overall wedding. Highly recommend! 

 

 Alexandra & Christian, December 18th

We had our wedding in the Westgrove Hotel on the 18/12/2021. There’s not enough stars to rate this hotel. Absolutely every single thing was perfect. The staff went above and beyond. From the very first day sitting with the incredible wedding coordinator Lorna to the big day itself she was truly amazing. I would relive the day over and over again and wouldn't change a thing. All the staff in the Westgrove are amazing and made our day so special.

 

Shauna & Paul, November 27th

The Westgrove was a wonderful venue for our wedding. We had a civil ceremony in the hotel followed by a beautiful reception. The team are so professional and helpful and the day went so smoothly and was exactly what we wanted. Lorna and Ben were brilliant and helped us tailor the package to our own needs. Everyone at the wedding said how perfect it was. Couldn’t recommend it as a venue enough.

 

Dawn & Aaron, December 31st

We had the most amazing day for our wedding at The Westgrove Hotel.  Every single part of the day was magical from start to finish.  The foyer, drinks reception and banqueting suite were all decorated with Christmas trees and twinkling lights, candles every where and such a brilliant atmosphere for the entire day.  All of our guests commented on how friendly and welcoming the staff were and how beautiful all the little details were.  From personalised menus and welcome signs to fabulous canapes and mulled wine for our arrivals.  Everything ran perfectly on time too which was amazing given that the vintage car we had booked to bring us to the hotel broke down 20 minutes away from the venue!  The driver very kindly advised he would arrange another car but it wouldn’t arrive for an hour.  We thought about getting a taxi and rang the hotel to let them know what was happening.  We were told to hold tight for a few minutes.  The driver in fairness was so apologetic and couldn’t have been more mortified.  Anyway, a few minutes later, the hotel call to say a vintage Ford Mustang Convertible was on it’s way for us and would be there in less than 20 minutes.  I couldn’t believe it!  I worried a bit about getting out of one car and into another with my dress but I need not have worried.  Lorna the wedding coordinator arrived at the same time in her own car.  Helped me move from one to the other, topped up the champagne and followed us to the hotel!  When we arrived, all of our guests were lined up outside the front doors of the hotel and were clapping and cheering and waving.  Honestly, it was the highlight of our day.  There were so many magical moments throughout the day but I think we will always look back on that part of the day with such gratitude to the hotel for turning what could have been a catastrophe into an absolute highlight.  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

 

 Amy & Dara, October 28th

The Westgrove and Lorna made our day amazing. Everything down to the tiniest detail was perfect. It was so relaxed and exactly the day we had hoped for. The staff were all so lovely, professional and accommodating. Lorna was always there if we needed her and she and the team there allowed us to infuse our own style into the day which we loved. Highly recommend! Food was amazing, bridal suite was so lovely and all vendors that were a part of the package were wonderful!!!!! Price was so good for all we got. If your looking for a luxury wedding at a reasonable price, definitely look no further.

 

Louise & Lee, October 20th

We had our wedding in the Westgrove in October. What can I say from start to finish it was an incredible experience from our first meeting with Lorna right up to the big day. The teams attention to detail is second to none. There was no question to small they were always so quick to reply and always on hand for a chat. We stayed the night before and were met by Bonnie on arrival she couldnt have done more to help us get settled in and sorted for our dinner with our famaily and friends who came down the night before. On the morning of the wedding Lorna and Lydia were on hand to help with everything. The day was more than we could have dreamed of and that is down to all of the staff. They couldnt have done more for us and our guests and even made sure to make sure our 1 year old was taken care of. The food was delish. The amount included in the price is amazing the whole hotel is decorated for the day and is beautiful. The staff were even on hand the next day to ensure we had a lovely breakfast and that we had all of our stuff with us. Thank you everyone for making our day beyond amazing. 

 

Hayley & Nicole, October 27th

We had our wedding in the Westgrove Hotel on the 27th of October 2023. From the moment we booked our wedding the service we received from the staff and our wedding coordinator Lorna was amazing. Nothing was too big or small. From our very first viewing of the hotel we couldn’t believe how stunning the hotel was and how easy our planning was because of the amazing inclusive package the Westgrove offers. As soon as we met Lorna we knew the Westgrove was the right choice for us. She made us feel so at ease and comfortable especially as a same sex couple. We will genuinely miss our chats and laughs with Lorna. Everything went smoothly from start to finish. The food was amazing as was all the suppliers included in the package. All our friends and family have not stopped raving on about how great everything was. Lorna, Bonnie and Lydia really out done themselves and we cannot thank you enough. 

 

Laura & Ian Reardon, August 25th

As we began planning our wedding we had heard only good things about the Westgrove. On our first visit we could see what the hype was about. The warm welcome and seeing the space dedicated to our special day we knew it was the right backdrop for our big day. From the moment we met Lorna our vision and ideas quickly became reality being linked to quality suppliers and professionals. Lorna, Lydia and team think of everything from the big features to minor details nothing is missed, Lorna has the special ability to think of everybody to ensure we had a stress free day but our guests were well looked after too. We recently had the privilege to watch back our wedding video and witnessed again the small touches and attention to detail, including the reassuring pats on the back and taking the time to fix a veil if needed. We are so happy with the whole day start to finish it was more than we could have imagined. A special word of thanks to Bonnie who looked after us on the big day and following day, she made a lasting impression on our friends and family and made everyone feel so special. For anyone considering the Westgrove we cannot recommend them highly enough. They are the to unlocking the best day of your life!

 

Gemma & John, August 5th

We had our wedding at the Westgrove on the 05/08/23. From the minute we booked our wedding back in June 2021, Lorna and all the staff could not do enough for us. No matter what we asked they met every requirement and made our wedding planning totally enjoyable. The effort they put in was absolutely amazing. The deal we got with the Westgrove Hotel, you would't find anywhere else and we would 100% recommend couples to check it out. The experience we had even on our menu tasting overnight stay, we were made feel like royalty. Our guests had nothing but compliments on our whole day about the Hotel itself, the food, the staff , everything! The room was absolutely gorgeous, we were amazed at how beautiful it was. Lorna, Bonnie and Lydia really are the best trio to deal with and made our day even more special than we could of imagined. If you go and view The Westgrove Hotel trust us you wont go anywhere else. We cannot wait to go back on our first year Anniversary and celebrate again.

From the first time we viewed the Westgrove Hotel we fell in love with every part of it. The open stairs are an amazing back drop to welcome your guests, then the private reception area is stunning including the perfect roof top terrace. The room is magical with the decorations, twinkling dancefloor, pretty backdrop behind the top table and table settings all added a romantic feel to the room which is what you want for a wedding. The bar is well stocked and no one was waiting long for a drink. The food is absolutely delicious and every guest complimented this. Bonnie the general manager is very helpful and makes sure everything is to a high standard for you. The bar staff and wait staff were so helpful, courteous and kind. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. There is nothing I would change about this venue for my wedding and it was the best decision to be married here. I would not doubt recommending this to any future brides and grooms.  In addition, the wedding coordinator Lorna is an incredibly kind and hard working person. Her commitment to making our wedding perfect was so reassuring in a time when being stressed is common. We did not feel stressed at any stage thanks to Lorna's professionalism and excellent communication. No question was too big or too small and was answered immediately. I had so many different personal touches to my wedding that required extra work for Lorna to have to organise and it was never a problem. I would recommend the Westgrove as a wedding venue on its own standing but to have Lorna as your wedding coordinator is priceless. She is incredible!
