Thank you for everything that you did to make our daughters wedding such a happy and enjoyable day for everyone. It is not an exaggeration to day that everything on the day was perfect. The Castle was warm and welcoming and the staff were helpful and professional. I do not think you could have done a better job. You were wonderful. The service at the wedding meal was exceptional, the food was delicious and everybody had a great time. In the interval between the meal and the dancing we had the chinese lantern display. As we all stood on the patio looking up into the clear Laois sky as the lanterns rose higher and higher it started to snow. It was magical. How did you arrange that?

" Well I really don't know what to say, you and all the staff have left me speechless. It really is difficult to say how truly grateful we are to everyone at Castle Durrow for ensuring our day was every bit the dream we had both hoped it would be. From the very start of the wedding preparations nothing was too much of a problem, during all the emails and calls back and forth not once did we feel a hint of unpleasantness, and I very much hope I avoided becoming a bridezilla for both you and your staff. Everything down to the finest detail was carried out so well and things which were overlooked by us were anticipated and brought to our attention. The warmth of Castle Durrow hits you the moment you walk through its grand doors, from the time our guests arrived and still now we are consistently hearing praise for the Castle and how they enjoyed their weekend so much and were treated so well by staff.
Castle Durrow became our home for the weekend, we truly felt like lord and lady of the manor."

The Castle was warm and welcoming and the staff were helpful and professional. I do not think you could have done a better job. You were wonderful. The service at the wedding meal was exceptional, the food was delicious and everybody had a great time. In the interval between the meal and the dancing we had the chinese lantern display. As we all stood on the patio looking up into the clear Laois sky as the lanterns rose higher and higher it started to snow. It was magical. How did you arrange that?

Everything went so smoothly which resulted in both ourselves and our guests having such a wonderful time. It has been commented to me that "its not many hotels that hold umbrellas over the guests so they don't wet en route to the function room".

"Ever since our first visit to Castle Durrow
2 years ago we knew this was the only place to
celebrate our special day. We can't thank you and all the staff enough for making yesterday THE BEST DAY OF OUR LIVES. Your attention to detail and help throughout the
day was second-to-none. You were always 10 steps ahead of us. We look forward to coming " home" to Castle Durrow in the near future"

"We would like to thank you all so much for making our wedding the most spectacular event of our life. We have had such a fantastic time. You are all so friendly, helpful and most importantly the nicest people we have met"
D&M 8.12.07
" My sincere appologies that I have left this so late but I thought that coming up to almost our 1st year wedding anniversary, I wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU!!! You were absolutely wonderful in assisting us with our wedding day and without your patience I don't think we would have had such a fabulous day. It was a very emotional time for us on account of my mum passing away just three weeks before our big day and I really just thought you should know there we were very grateful for your support and terrific organisational skills that enabled us to have the most unforgetable day of our lives"
O&P 12.11.07
" Thank you, thank you, thank you! You've been so patient with us during the whole organising and always had a practical answer for any of our questions. We have heard nothing but praise about Castle Durrow and the crew who run everything so smoothly. We had a brilliant time over the last three days and the wedding of the century left us lost for words"
J&R 8.11.07
" We just wanted to drop you a quick email to thank you and your team in Durrow for a fantastic wedding. We are currently sitting in Heathrow waiting for a flight to Hong Kong and still cannot get over how well the whole day went . We actually could not think of a single thing that went wrong and that was no small part to the professionalism and friendliness of all of the staff in Durrow. So many people have told us how magical the day was, the whole setting, the lanterns outside, the BBQ later in the evening, the friendliness of staff, absolutely everything meant that we have without doubt the best day of our lives"

The wedding exceeded our expectations in every way and we really appreciate the hard work everyone did to ensure our day ran smoothly.
Our guests thoroughly enjoyed the day - all complimented the meal and the staff and we too would like to echo those compliments in thanking the chef, kitchen team and the floor staff for the excellent food and service. All staff went out of their way to be friendly and accommodating.
We will undoubtedly return next year to mark our anniversary"

"Thank you so much for everything you did to make our wedding day so perfect. We cannot think of a nicer venue for our big day than Castle Durrow, but more importantly absolutely everyone working there was so amazingly lovely and so professional, both throughout our weekend and also in the run up to it. You really made us feel like we were the only wedding couple you have ever had there! Our guest are still raving about the food, the Castle and the overall experience you provided.Many, many thanks"
E&G 9.6.07
" Now that we're back and settled into normal life again, we wanted to say thanks to you and the whole team there. We have had so many compliments about the food ( including the indoor BBQ the night before), atmosphere, all the staff, the whole set up . I think you'll be getting some more people booking their wedding with you after being at ours! We'll definitely be recommending you to everyone anyway "
R&P 19.5.07
" Well I really don't know what to say, you and all the staff have left me speechless. It really is difficult to say how truly grateful we are to everyone at Castle Durrow for ensuring our day was every bit the dream we had both hoped it would be. From the very start of the wedding preparations nothing was too much of a problem, during all the emails and calls back and forth not once did we feel a hint of unpleasantness, and I very much hope I avoided becoming a bridezilla for both you and your staff. Everything down to the finest detail was carried out so well and things which were overlooked by us were anticipated and brought to our attention. The warmth of Castle Durrow hits you the moment you walk through its grand doors, from the time our guests arrived and still now we are consistently hearing praise for the Castle and how they enjoyed their weekend so much and were treated so well by staff.
Castle Durrow became our home for the weekend, we truly felt like lord and lady of the manor."
C&J 5.05.07
" We would like to thank you for making our wedding day perfect. We could not have chosen a more stunning location. All staff members were fantastic, the food and wine were excellent. We will never forget it for the rest of our lives. Even the weather came out to play! We look forward to returning soon"
