Here’s what some of our couples had to say…

Weeks later, we’re still absolutely gushing over the Abbey; it was the perfect venue for our wedding. You really had it all, from phenomenal staff to incredible food to luxurious facilities. We could not have asked for better! You truly made us feel like a VIP throughout the day and your top-notch events team helped ensure that everything ran smoothly behind the scenes. Guests were in awe of the venue, how fantastic the food was, and how every detail was perfectly executed. We could not recommend the Abbey enough, and can’t wait to return for future celebrations. It’s definitely well worth the investment for a beautiful, love-filled and stress-free wedding day.

I had my wedding here on May 25th and was absolutely blown away by everything. Arizbeth and team were incredible from start to finish, with 18 months of planning the team at The Abbey were always at the end of an email with any questions we had.

The wedding weekend went perfectly, Arizbeth and team have the day planned to perfection and she made it all so stress free. The food was like a fine dining experience – our guests are still talking about it!!!

- Clodagh & Josh

“Arizbeth and the team were so lovely and helpful at every stage of wedding planning, from our initial viewing right through to the big day. The venue itself is stunning with the chapel for the ceremony and after party being a huge selling point – everyone was raving about how fabulous it was! And the meal provided by 3Cooks is simply stunning – a true fine dining experience and absolutely flawless. We had several guests with allergies and all were so grateful that they were accommodated so well. We couldn’t recommend The Abbey enough”

- Niamh & Adam

“What an incredible venue that went above and beyond to make our day so special. We cannot thank Arizbeth and all the team for by far the best day of our lives. Guests have not stopped talking about the staff, their attentiveness, their professionalism and their warmth when welcoming them. The food was incredible. It is definitely one that keeps coming up as a highlight. I would without question highly recommend The Abbey for a wedding. They went above and beyond, and for that we will never forget them.”
