Rachel & David 6th July
We cannot thank Rachel and Sabine enough for everything they did for us on the wedding day. I arrived down with what I am positive was an excessive amount of decor with a clear vision of what I was trying to achieve and they placed it all together to absolute perfection for the day!! Rachel was always enthusiastic about our theme, replied promptly to emails and went above and beyond her call of duty recommending suppliers to meet our specific theme and style, never shying away from creative and alternative options!

‘The Glenview Hotel is a fabulous venue. I couldn’t have picked a better place. The staff were so helpful in every way possible and so friendly to ourselves and our family and guests. The wedding planner Rachel is so lovely to deal with and had everything covered for us which helped eased the stress. The wedding packages available are of great value and have lots included which eases the expense. I would highly recommend the Glenview Hotel to all!’
Selma & Cian 1st Feb 2018
Glenview Hotel has beautiful well-kept gardens with a surrounding forest walk which is ideal for photographs. Our wedding planner Rachel who embraced our Shrek theme and was on hand to answer all our queries. All the staff at the Glenview just can’t do enough for you and made us feel very much comfortable. The function room is an ideal size with beautiful neutral décor and our food was second to one.
Caroline & Christopher, Wedding 5th May 2018
Our wedding day was on the 5th of May 2018 in the Glenview Hotel Wicklow and I can honestly say it was our dream day. We live abroad and it was so important to us to find a venue where we could put our trust in them to help our vision for the day come through. From the minute we met Rachel the wedding coordinator I knew that we would have the day we imagined. Rachel really understood what we wanted for our day, and she really cared about the little details that were so important to us. All of the staff at the Glenview from the bar staff to the waiters and reception were incredible and so welcoming. We could not have wished for better treatment or a better day, thank you to everyone for making it so unforgettable.
Alex and Marie 27th Oct 2017
‘To all of the Glenview Hotel Team, we would really like to take this opportunity to thank you all so much for helping make our dream wedding come true. From the enchanting set-up in the Delgany Suite for our Humanist ceremony to the magical setting in the Ballroom, you fulfilled our every wish. The whole team managed to pull everything off for us, including facilitating the Bird of Prey display on the lawn. The whole day went seamlessly. All of our guests had a fantastic day and still rave about the great time they had at the hotel. Thank you again.’
Sinead and Colum 7th Oct 2017
‘We had our wedding reception at the Glenview hotel and it was amazing from start to finish. The wedding planner was fantastic and had everything organised just as we had asked. The staff on the day were excellent and went above and beyond what we had hoped. The whole day flowed smoothly and all of our guests commented on how attentive and friendly the staff were. The food was delicious and the portions were generous! We got lots of appreciative comments from our guests about how much they enjoyed their dinner! The hotel itself is lovely and welcoming and we would definitely recommend it!’
Katie Huffman 1st Oct 2017
‘We got married overseas, and the Glenview made everything so easy! We can’t rate this place high enough. It was beautiful and the food was fantastic!’
Daniel and Rebecca 1st Sept 2017
‘Booking far in advance really helped so we had time to plan everything. The hotel’s wedding co-coordinator changed between our booking and the event, but when we met Kate she got a great idea of what we wanted (and didn’t want), and she was totally in control the whole time. She provided an excellent service. The food was excellent and amazing value. All members or staff were exceedingly helpful and friendly. The garden facility for our reception was beautiful and provided a great contrast to the beautiful dining room. Everything ran so smoothly and again, Kate being totally in control is entirely to thank for that. Beautiful surroundings, yet still a taxi ride to Dublin; it’s a perfect hotel venue!’
Doreen and Larry 17th Aug 2017
‘We had an amazing wedding at the Glenview Hotel. From our first meeting with the wedding planner at the hotel to the wedding day itself, we were treated so well and nothing was ever too much trouble to organise. We had planned to have our Spiritual Ceremony and drinks reception outside in the beautiful gardens, however, at the very last minute it rained, all the staff worked tirelessly to move everything indoors and turned what could have been a disaster into a beautiful indoor ceremony and perfect drinks reception. The reception dinner was wonderful and our guests commented on how delicious the food was. The service was second to none with all the staff being polite and efficient. We cannot fault this hotel and are looking forward to going back again on our first anniversary (if not before!). A huge thanks to all the staff at the Glenview for an unforgettable day.’
Christine and Peter 11th Aug 2017
‘We had a small wedding in August that was simply incredible. We got married in the hotel. Due to rainy weather our ceremony was inside, but decor was fantastic. We went out to gardens afterwards for our photos. The wedding planner was with us the whole time, assisting and guiding throughout the planning as well as the day itself. She even gave us pins as we were fixing our hair after we got caught in rain. What i found the most touching was how excited she was for our big day. Our dinner was in private room with gorgeous views. Kate had everything set up better than we wished for. Staff were wonderful, so friendly and welcoming. We had extensive menu choices and food did not disappoint. Massive thanks to wonderful Kate and every member of the staff who made our day so unforgettable.
Lorraine and Ray Kelly 1st July 2017
‘Hi we got married in the Glenview on the 1st July 2017. To be honest it was wonderful, we were blessed with the weather but they had decorated both the outside space where the service was and the outside bar area for the drinks reception fantastic. It looked amazing – just like the pictures – there were no hiccups – the sound was in the right place for the guys to play, the guests were well looked after, it all went on time. The wedding reception room was done up beautifully as well, name places and tables all correct, again there were no issues food served on time, room cleared when needed to be. The staff were kind and funny. The food was spot on, everyone was delighted with it, I thought I wouldn’t be able to eat, I ate loads! So leading up to it there were one or 2 things we need clarification on these were addressed immediately and with no hassle. Brian and Kate were great in sorting out any questions etc. I cannot rate this place highly enough, very family feeling about it and I felt they genuinely cared. I’m blooming holding back me happy tears up as I’m writing this. The setting is fantastic as well – so location, food, helpfulness, kindness, and professional, you can’t ask for anything more. I have had a hundred texts, mails from my guests saying it was the best wedding they were ever at and we can’t thank them enough for making it a wonderful day.’
Tara & Laura, Wedding 19th of June 2016
“Fantastic support & direction from Alina, her warmth & top class service was second to none. A Hotel with so much character with a picturesque location, food & service exceptional on the day but the real winner was planning our perfect day with Alina; she was a total pleasure to deal with, so supportive, professional yet embracing our ideas & assisting us in creating a stunning but also personally reflective theme, what a wonderful memorable celebration from start to finish, we only wish we could repeat the day again!! Thank you most sincerely Laura & Tara xx”
Una & Philip, Wedding 4 June 2016
“We had our wedding on the 4th June last, we had a beautiful sunny day and the welcome reception in the garden was spectacular! All the staff were so helpful and efficient on the day and we just had to sit back, relax and enjoy! The food by Sandeep and his team was exceptional and everyone complimented the menu and choices available! Alina was an angel from start to finish, we couldn’t recommend her highly enough! A fab day to remember was had by all! Thank you again!”
Aoife & Richard, Wedding 14 May 2016
“We had the most amazing day at our wedding recently in the Glenview hotel. Everything was just perfect on the day, and everything that we had planned for the past 5 months just fell into place! Alina thank you for all that you did for us. Aoife & Richard”
Ann-Marie & Donal, Wedding 29th of April 2016
We had our wedding fully booked down to the florist a year and a half in advance, and we got a nasty shock when we our period venue revealed that they had no bar license. Panic ensued!!! Deposits had been paid and we were all set for our bank holiday wedding. I spent days researching venues and putting in a call to every suitable one that could hold our number. Of the 28 venues I called, some could not have been less courteous if they tried, others promised information that simply never landed in my inbox, and some wedding coordinators didn’t even seem to know the basics like room capacity and €/ head. I remember the call to the Glenview still – Alina, the Glenview wedding coordinator answered, she was so sympathetic and she just got me, plain and simple. She understood the stressful nature of the situation we were in, had the date we needed and sent on the relevant information while we were practically still on the phone – I knew that this was the venue for us. I got off the phone that day with a genuine sense of relief that everything was going to be just fine.
We visited the venue, fell in love with the gardens and the surrounding forest walk – perfect for pictures. The function room was the perfect size, and I loved the neutral decor (no crazy coloured carpet or cheap paneled ceilings). Alina was wide open to every little hair brained idea I had about what we might like to do decor wise for the wedding day, I am an event planner and a Pinterest-aholic. I suggested rubber ducks in the fountain at one stage just to test the waters, we didn’t do that, but I loved that if we were passionate enough about rubber duckies – we could have done that 🙂 Some venues can be quite fussy about what they will and won’t allow in decor terms.
All along the way Alina was terrific, she was brilliant at returning calls and emails about any wee thing I queried, and she is also backed by a great team – Urmas in reservations, and Sabine in events. We had our tasting and the only complaint we had was that we were too full to finish our courses, the food was great. I loved that our guests were going to have choices for starter and mains, without the additional supplement fees/course thrown in. The Glenview ticked a lot of our boxes.
5 days before the wedding, we arrived with 2 car loads of boxes of homemade crafts for the day and went through everything in painful detail regarding how we wanted it all set up on. When we arrived at the Glenview after the ceremony, we went to the ballroom to check everything, we needn’t have bothered – the room was set out perfectly and we could not have done it better ourselves.
Our wedding day was the best day of our lives. Everything went so well, the room was beautifully set up, the food was plentiful and tasty, the service was spot on – not too long between courses, the staff were brilliant. One of my guests spilt half a glass of red wine over her black and white silk dress, Sabine came to her rescue in a flash with soda water and got it all out… to everyone’s surprise. The whole day ran so seamlessly, and the positive feedback we have had from all our guests has been phenomenal. If you want to truly enjoy your wedding day, booking a trustworthy and capable venue is key to that. And you need to have a wedding coordinator who is genuinely as excited about your day as you are. I never once felt like I was just a number dealing with Alina, down to following my Pinterest board and helpful tips based on her vast experience – she could not possibly have done more. Pretty sure I spoke as much about Alina in my speech as I did my new hubby 🙂 No bride wants to be a ball of stress in the run up to, or on the day. Hand on heart I loved every minute of it, because we did not have to worry about anything as it had all been planned and executed so well. I could not recommend the Glenview Hotel highly enough – this venue is great because of the people who work there, and if you have your wedding here your day will be great too.”
Danielle & Gary, Wedding 16 October 2015
“From the minute we meet with Alina, the wedding coordinator back in Feb 15, I knew this hotel was for us. She was so friendly and welcoming (as were all staff members) and couldn’t do enough to help us. Every detail of our wedding was prefect and I cannot thank the staff at the Glenview enough. We choose a humanist ceremony which was head in the hotel and the room was beautifully decorated, warm and welcoming. Our reception was fantastic, beautifully laid out room with plenty of drinks and bites for our guests. The ground of the hotel are kept very well and view breath taking. Our pictures are testament to the that! The function room was amazing. The bar being in the room was very important to me as I feel that sometimes you may loose some guests to the bar (if not in the room) so I was very happy with that. The food was exceptional, hats off to your chef, who did an amazing job. Overall I cannot fault the Glenview. We had the best day, it was exactly what I had hoped for, and that would not have happened if it wasn’t for Alina and all the staff at the Glenview. So thank you so much.”
Liz & Martin Shiels, Wedding 25th of September 2015
“We have a wonderful experience, we couldn’t ask anymore from the hotel staff as they were fantastic, all our guests and ourselves we’re delighted with the high quality of the food, Alina did a fantastic job throughout all the planning of the wedding, we also had the opportunity of being taken care by Sabine and Vivienne who like Alina were exceptional.
We planned our wedding at the Glenview as a couple we know had got married at the glenview hotel and recommended the hotel to us, we are delighted that we took their recommendation as the highly trained waitressing staff, wedding planner and on the day organisers made this truly the best day of our lives that we will never forget. The penthouse room and view are amazing and guests who stayed at the hotel also complemented the high standards of the hotel facilities and staff”
Richard & Jennifer, Wedding 30th of August 2015
“From our first impressions of both the Glenview and Alina we knew we had made the right choice. The location was perfect and Alina guided us perfectly from start to finish to ensure our day was magical. On the day itself the hard work of the team really became apparent with all aspects meeting our expectations and beyond – it didn’t even rain!? Both Alina and Sabine work so well together and really ensured our special day was one we will never forget!? We will always have great memories of the hotel, staff, food and experience and very much look forward to coming back to stay on our 1 year anniversary. All members of staff were so helpful at every stage of planning the wedding and on the day itself. A big thanks must go to Alina and Sabine who ensured things were perfect and ran so smoothly. It really made our day so very special. Thanks again to all those who made our day truly wonderful”
Graham & Michaela, Wedding 28th of August 2015
“From the first moment we contacted Alina and the team they were extremely helpful and very quick to respond to any queries we had. They really made sure that we had an unbelievable wedding from start to finish, and were always on hand throughout the day to guide us through all the little details. A pleasure to deal with and we can’t recommend them highly enough! Thank you to Alina, Sabine and all at the Glenview. You really gave us a perfect day!”
Aoife & Barry, Wedding 21st of August 2015
“We got married in the Glenview Hotel just over 3 weeks ago now, and could not be happier with our choice of venue. The wedding coordinator, Alina, was a pleasure to deal with and made the planning process so easy for us. She was always at hand with helpful suggestions and excellent recommendations of suppliers, like the photographer she suggested which we were more than delighted with. We think she even controlled the weather for us on the day! The hotel itself was fabulous, we were lucky enough to have an outdoor ceremony in the gardens by a beautiful waterfall and the scenery and views were breathtaking. All our guests commented on how good the food and service was definitely worth a 5 star, nothing was too much trouble, from the bar staff, to Valentino taking such good care of us at breakfast the next morning and the excellent F&B manager Sabine who ensured everything ran perfectly on the day. A massive thank you to all, we really could not have envisioned a more beautiful wedding and cannot recommend this hotel enough.”
Jason and Adel, Wedding 7th August 2015
“The attention to detail from alina and the Glenview was absolutely amazing. They didn’t leave anything out. The grounds in the day for photographs were great and the food was absolutely amazing. The guests All commented how great the food was and how much of it there was including the evening food. A lot of Our guests said it was one of the best weddings they have been to and I put that down to the team in the Glenview. They always say the 3 things that make your guests remember is the venue, the food, and the entertainment. And all 3 were amazing. Alina the wedding planner is so much driven by her job she really makes sure everything is captured for your day and would not hesitate in recommending this hotel to any of my family or friends for the future. You always say you pay for what you get and Glenview is well worth the money. Thanks”
Adrienne and Mark, Wedding 4th August 2015
“We had our wedding in the Glenview Hotel on August 4th 2015. From the moment we booked our date we knew that we had made the right choice. The attention to detail and professionalism from the staff was above and beyond what we expected. Alina helped us through the year with some great suggestions to make our big day even more special.

Our guests are still talking about the Food and many have commented that it is the best they have ever had at a Wedding. The Glenview has a rich history and we are very happy to be a part of it.”
Amanda & Padhraig, Wedding 11th July 2015
“The Glenview was the perfect venue for our wedding celebration. All our needs were catered for and nothing was too much trouble. Alina was so helpful from the outset, assisting us with every aspect of our day. Her attention to detail and great ideas really made our lives much easier. Alina also assisted us in organising our photographer, who was very familiar with the venue and again, went above and beyond on the day itself. Seamus and the rest of the Glenview staff were impeccable on the day itself. We couldn’t have asked for more. We would recommend the Glenview to anyone looking for their ideal wedding venue.”
Julie & Seán Wedding 27th of June 2015
“The Glenview Hotel has always been a special place for me having spent many a family occasion celebrating there. On meeting with Sabine, the event organiser, to view the hotel for our wedding we were very impressed with her attitude and immediately trusted her with our special day. Our view only improved upon meeting Alina, the wedding co-ordinator, who with her bubbly attitude, creative ideas, quick responses and general helpfulness made for enjoyable wedding planning and organisation. We were delighted on the day itself to be able to enjoy the lovely gardens for our drinks reception, there was a lovely relaxed atmosphere created which allowed us and our guests to fully enjoy the day. The gardens were also perfect for taking the family photos without having to travel far away. We were so happy with our wedding day and would not hesitate in recommending them to any engaged couple. Thanks a million to Alina and Sabine for a free-flowing, hassle free, exciting and wonderful day!”

From the day we contacted Alina about booking our wedding, to the big day itself they couldn’t have been more professional or more attentive to us. Their attention to detail is fantastic and Alina is incredibly creative which made choosing a theme quick and easy.
On the day itself the serving staff were fast and efficient meaning not one of our guests were left waiting for their food. The whole meal was delicious and we were all stuffed by the end. The manager on the day was incredibly attentive and ready to fulfil any request we might have. We held the ceremony in the hotel also and the room was beautifully decorated for the occasion. The gardens were the ideal setting for our photographs with the autumn backdrop of the Glen.
We can’t praise them enough for everything they did to make our big day so special. I would highly recommend the Glenview for the venue for any event, especially a wedding.”

Michelle and Anthony O’Riordan – Wedding 13 September 2014
“My husband and I visited many hotel venues for our wedding day, but the Glenview topped our list immediately. We were given such a warm friendly and relaxed welcome.
All of the staff are extremely pleasant, helpful and courteous. We had many visits back to the Glenview before our big day, we attended the leisure centre many a Sunday for a swim
sauna and dip in their outdoor hot tub, followed by dinner in either the fabulous Woodlands restaurant with stunning views, or their Conservatory bar for delicious Sunday carvery. We were given 6 months complimentary membership to their leisure centre when we booked our date. Our wedding coordinator Alina, was fantastic, from the word go, she was a pleasure to work with and gave us so much of her time. Alina helped us to choose a theme, colour scheme, she looked up ideas and got to know what we liked and would email me with suggestions. She saved us money too especially with our garden decorations for our arrivals reception. Alina took a lot of our stress away, being so helpful and attentive. I loved that she was so excited and enthusiastic about our day.
Our wedding day was like a fairy-tale, we had a fabulous day from start to finish, the sun was shining, guests relaxed outside on arrival, in stunning surroundings, nobody wanted to leave the gardens, so beautiful. Our meal was delicious and the service was superb. We danced the night away and some of the staff did too, a big thank you to Sabine who looked after us on the day, so caring and attentive, and put so much work into our preparations and ensuring all of our guests were looked after.
My nana who is not very mobile was assisted to with all of her needs, and cannot stop praising all of the staff. I would highly recommend the Glenview!
Excellent food, stunning location, beautiful grounds, and to top it off amazing staff. Huge thank you to Alina, Vivienne, Sabine and Hazel.”
Elaine & Alan – Wedding 5 September 2014
“Hi Alina, we would like to thank you for Friday and for all your help with the wedding planning. Yourself and Sabine did an absolutely fantastic job, we couldn’t have asked for better. The waiters and bar staff were fantastic and the wedding meal and BBQ food next day were excellent. The gardens were decorated beautifully for both days it was very clear a lot of effort was put in. Our guests were also very impressed with their rooms and complimented the size and cleanliness as well as the amazing views. We can’t thank you enough for making the biggest day of our lives a dream come through and will be recommending you to all of our friends. Elaine & Alan”

The day itself ran so smoothly thanks to all your preparation and Sabine’s organisation and implementation. Our guests are still raving about the beautiful views, lovely food and excellent service. Everyone had a great day, night and weekend…especially both of us.
We could not recommend the Glenview highly enough to any couple planning their wedding. A huge thanks once again for everything!”

Knowing how well looked-after our guests were really helped us enjoy our special day. Similarly, please pass on our gratitude to Barry, Sabine, Chef and all the catering staff. The food was amazing and more than a few people told us how great it was to see extra helpings being offered. Our day was truly unforgettable and that was due in no small part to your own skill and professionalism and that of the Glenview. Once again, many thanks for everything. Kind regards, Conal and Edel”

“We were treated like royalty from the time we booked the venue until the time we checked out the day after the wedding. “Our wish was your desire”. Every time we visited the Glenview we were given special treatment and it was lovely to see familiar faces each time – staff who really appeared to enjoy helping us with everything. Management and staff worked tirelessly to ensure everyone enjoyed the day. Not meaning to leave anyone out, we would like to send special thanks to Alina, Sabine, Amanda, the kitchen and serving staff and the lovely friendly girl who managed the bar at our wedding. We would very highly recommend the Glenview to everyone who is looking for a great venue.”
Jennifer Richardson & Philip Maher – Wedding 1st June 2014
“Most Amazing Experience – I had my wedding in The Glenview. From the outset of my planning the staff at the hotel were so so helpful. They made the whole process hassle free and fun. Alina in particular was amazing and went above and beyond the call of duty to make everything fabulous for our day. The gardens ceremony looked like something from a fairy-tale; Sabine made sure everything went to plan. Meal was delicious and all staff were efficient and helpful on the day. I will look back on it as the happiest and beautiful day if my life and this is thanks in no small part to the Glenview and the staff. Xxx”
Ciara Mc Grane & Philip Bergin – Wedding 31 May 2014
“Alina, I just want to say thank you so much for everything you did for us on our wedding day. It was absolutely perfect! The room and the gardens were amazing looking. The garden was like something from a photoshoot. I was delighted you had the idea of the lanterns because it really gave the gardens a magical look! You made sure all my ideas were presently perfectly. You were so easy to deal with throughout the whole process and so encouraging of all my weird ideas. Also we got our photos back digitally and the pictures on the driveway are great! Everybody was raving about the food, it was absolutely delicious and there was loads of it! I would like you to pass my thanks onto Sabine as well. She was brilliant on the day. She was on point with all the timings and arrangements and she has a great personality. All my family had nothing but good things to say about her!”

“We got married on the 10th of May which was one of the best days of our lives, The Glenview really made this possible for us. I can’t say enough about this place. The food, the staff and level of care that was provided to us by all the team was 150%. We can’t wait to go back and visit. For anyone looking for a fantastic and flawless reception The Glenview is the place to go.. Thank you again for a very special day. Emer & Richard Croston xxx”
Debbie Walker & Steven Kool, Wedding 23 May 2014
“Glenview was perfect for our wedding. We planned our wedding from abroad, so had to depend on good communication and the staff working well with my parents, and we were so pleased with how it went, from the planning stage to the end of the day. The staff were excellent, incredibly helpful and fun, and were committed to making the day fantastic for us, which they did. The function room, the service, the dance floor were all perfect, and the drinks reception on arrival was wonderful. The rooms were lovely, the breakfast delicious. Our guests had such a great time. We loved the location too – not too far from Dublin, but just far enough and with a beautiful view of Wicklow. We would recommend Glenview Hotel without hesitation to any engaged couple. Alina was an incredible help – we were so thankful for how committed she was to making the day an expression of us and perfect for us. Sabine on the night was so much fun and a great help. We appreciate so much the excellent staff – thank you!”
Maria & Tony Hilton, Wedding 10th April 2014
“I really don’t know how I can put forward how amazing the Glenview is as a wedding location. We got married there on the 10th of April this year and it was nothing short of perfect. Alina, our wedding coordinator made everything absolutely perfect. Her attention to detail is fantastic and you really feel like she’s planning her best friend’s wedding. That job is ideal for her! Everything from the build-up preparations to suggesting those little extra touches that make a difference to being a comfort when external planning gets tough, we couldn’t have wished for anything more. On the day, they made sure we weren’t bothered with anything and instead coordinated with the wedding party so that they made everything as lovely for us as possible. The room was decorated to perfection and Alina really helped to add in those extra details which make things special. I have to also call out Sabine who is a truly fantastic organiser on the day too. She helped to organise everything really well and you got the feeling that she was in full control of absolutely everything behind the scenes with Alina. They’re a fab team. Together with the stunning location, beautiful main room, tasty food, beautifully decorated bridal suite and the amazing staff we couldn’t have asked for anything more. I highly recommend this as the perfect wedding venue.”
Clare Moloney and Colin Weafer, Wedding 24th of April 2014
“Our whole day went so smoothly. Every request I had was accommodated. I knew one thing I wouldn’t have to worry about was the wedding reception as I had been to weddings in the Glen View before and knew that the Hotel and staff were very experienced in hosting a wedding reception. It meant I relaxed and enjoyed every minute of the day. All reports back from my guests were 100% positive.
I would just like to thank Alina and all the staff in the Glenview Hotel. It was obvious that a lot of hard work went into our day. My guests all commented on the fabulous service they received, the staff really out did themselves. The food was amazing. I was very happy to hear that everyone felt they had loads of eat and drink all day. Overall it was a brilliant experience and I would recommend the Glenview to anyone for a wedding. Thanks again, Clare, Colin & Sarah.”
Eileen Broughan, Mother of the Bride – Wedding 4th April 2014
“I want to say a ‘HUGE’ thank you to everyone at the Glenview Hotel Wicklow for such an amazing day at my daughter’s wedding day last Friday, The whole day was perfect from start to finish. I can’t even find the words to thank the wedding planner ‘Alina’, her attention to detail was fantastic, and of course the manageress on duty ‘Sabina’ who delivered the most perfect day, and what a dancer she was too! To all the staff serving in the room, everyone commented that nothing was too much trouble to them at all! What a fantastic hotel to have a fantastic day!
Thank you all so much and continued success to you all.xxx”
Trish & Benjamin Jukes, Wedding 22nd March 2014
“From the moment we booked our wedding with The Glenview everything was perfect. The people we dealt with, the way we were dealt with was just so lovely and so, so professional. I cannot recommend them highly enough. ALL of the staff were a pleasure to deal with from our wedding co-ordinations Alina and Sabine to each and every person that served us and our guest’s dinner. All of my guests commented on this. Their attention to detail was excellent in that I had a particular vision in my head of how I wanted everything to look and sure enough when I walked into our reception room for the first time I could not have been happier, it was everything I had hoped for and more. The food was excellent and their choice of wine was second to none as it really complimented the food.
Our stay there was also amazing, so relaxing, just what you need after a year’s wedding planning 🙂 I used The Haven for a facial and manicure and once again I wasn’t disappointed -perfect.
If you are considering using The Glenview for your wedding reception, just go ahead and book – it’ll be so worth it. Same goes for if you’re just looking for a weekend away it’s the perfect choice. Now just go ahead and Enjoy!!”
