Testimonials

Where do I begin! My now husband and I booked our wedding here in November 2021 and got married September 2023. From the moment we visited and met with the wonderful most amazing wedding co-ordinator Ann we were sold. Ann made everything from start to finish so easy, enjoyable and stress-free as much as possible for us. On the wedding day we had exceptionally hot weather, the staff we quick to provide umbrellas for shelter in the outdoor area where the ceremony took place and also water for all the guests! Such a nice touch. The staff are a credit to the hotel and to the O' Neill family. We had the most amazing day and had absolutely nothing to complain about. The food was unbelievable, service was outstanding. Not one complaint from any guests. This place is by far a well-deserved winner of the best wedding venue in Ireland.

Best Wedding Venue! I couldn’t recommend Fernhill highly enough to have your wedding. From the moment we got in touch with Ann the Wedding Coordinator, she was nothing but responsive, professional and flexible with any and every request. The food at Fernhill is second to none, the gardens are beautiful and they can accommodate and adapt to every weather condition. Finally, they manage to strike the unique balance of having done so many weddings they are prepared for anything; while making your wedding feel like it’s the most special.

From the moment we got engaged there was nowhere else for us but Fernhill House Hotel. From the first initial meeting with Ann to the day of the wedding I knew we were in safe hands, your attention to detail is second to none, everything was seamless, there is a reason Ann just received venue coordinator of the year at the recent wedding awards!! Being a past employee, it was very special to have my wedding day in Fernhill, it was everything I dreamed of and more We got married in the stunning and picturesque garden ceremony area. This went off without a hitch, even when my husbands ring fell through the floorboards of the ceremony area, Neil was on hand with a drill to help us get the ring back which made for a great story and even better photos, That's the type of people the O'Neills are they go above and beyond for their guests no questions asked. We had our speeches at the drinks reception which was such a relaxed atmosphere. The food was phenomenal, absolutely out of this world and cooked to perfection. The service was top class as always anything we asked for wasn't a bother. It was lovely to see some familiar faces. Everything about our wedding day went off perfectly and that's down to the team in Fernhill. I'd like to especially mention Ann, Laura ,Neil, Teresa, Mike, Gearoid and Mike Jr thank you for everything, there aren't enough words to convey how delighted we were with everything, Thank you. There's only one Fernhill!!!!
