We had our wedding at Nuthurst Grange Hotel on the 9th September and it was simply amazing! We cannot thank the team enough.
We had visited many venues but when we arrived at Nuthurst in March, in its beautiful grounds, we immediately felt relaxed and knew it was the one for us. From the warm welcome from Helen on reception to meeting the wedding coordinators, Magda and Kelly, we were made to feel that nothing was too much trouble.
Hotel and Grounds
The hotel, although being incredible stylish and looking exquisite, also made you feel relaxed and comfortable.
I stayed in the Hen House the night before the wedding and it was an uncharacteristically hot evening. The room had a large portable fan which was much needed and welcomed.
The honeymoon suite is lovely. Gorgeous free-standing bath, separate shower room, a balcony overlooking the helipad that there is room to sit or sunbathe on!
Our other guests also loved their rooms and the housekeeping team did a wonderful job in accommodating all of the extra beds that were required in some of the rooms.
The grounds are just beautiful, well maintained with lots of little areas to wonder too – plenty of photo opportunities.
Food
We enjoyed our complimentary food tasting and the excellent service and humour of HB!
We were asked to give feedback on the dishes, we did ask for minor tweaks, which the Chef made sure were incorporated for the wedding breakfast.
The food on the day was delicious, plentiful and hot, and it received so many compliments from the guests.
The breakfast and service the next day was also fabulous. As we had booked all of the rooms, we had all of the stunning dining areas to make use of.
The Team
The team at the hotel are simply exceptional.
We visited Magda and Kelly several times before the wedding with lots of questions, and each time they were so accommodating and helpful, and made us feel confident that everything was going to run smoothly.
The evening before our wedding, I thought I had torn my wedding dress trying to pack it. Marjan on reception was so comforting as we arrived and immediately offered to contact her friend who was a seamstress and Kelly was also there to give me a hug.
Thankfully, the dress was not torn but Marjan’s reaction was reflective of all of the team at Nuthurst Grange – they go above and beyond to try and make the day special for you.
We would like to say a special thanks to Grant (General Manager), who was phenomenal. Grant was with us the evening before the wedding helping to set up, and with us again first thing the next morning; helping with button holes, keeping us informed of where we needed to be and when and making sure that the day ran smoothly.
We had forgotten to let Grant know that we wanted to do a photo dash from table to table during the wedding breakfast. Immediately, he organised music, managed the timings of the meal and made sure that we could take the photos.
He has an amazing “can do” attitude even under pressure, so friendly, professional, all of the guests commented on how great he and the team were.
Grant and the exceptional team made sure we felt completely relaxed, that they had everything under control and the attention to detail was stunning, they all looked after us so well.
Some of our guests had left items behind, which housekeeping promptly brought to the attention of Helen at reception who made sure that everything was returned.
The team at the hotel at every level have a fabulous ethic and are a real credit to Paul the owner. We absolutely loved our day, thank you all so much for making it so magical for us x
