Oue Special Day

We'd like 2 thank everyone for a great day. We had our full wedding at the Alona and everything went smoothly. The dinner was lovely & the buffet was good. I agreed to get my 3 tier wedding cake to be cut & by the end of the night there was still a lot left I thought it would have been given back to me but when I asked about it the next day no body new anything about it so I take it that it got binned so I wasn't very happy about that. I also had a pop me balloon from my niece & it had mini Mars bars in it which disappeared & again no one new what had happened to them

The best place for photos I would suggest over looking the loch from the front doors or even on the carousel within the theme park, this is something couples love as it is something different!

We have had many Scottish Celebrities stay within the hotel such as Frankie Boyle, Martin Compston, Robbie Coltrane as well as hosting the Motherwell FC Player of the Year!

My favourite canapé would have to be the Haggis BonBons! A little taste of Scotland.

What’s your favourite midnight treat?

My Midnight treat would have to be pizza!

What is Alona Hotel most unique feature?

Our venue is unique due to it being next to the Theme Park, this means we are able to incorporate some aspects of the Theme park into Couple's weddings if they would like. Such as photos on the Carousel, within the arcades, at the bowling alley and even on some Theme Park Rides!!

What part of your business are you most proud of?

We as a business are most proud of the happiness we can give Couples on their big day. As well as take away any stresses that may come as the big day is approaching. Our team is dedicated to making the Couple's Day special in every way possible.
