ASSURANCE
from our past couples
Don’t just take our word for it - our testimonials speak for themselves. From initial enquiry to the moment your last guest has departed the hotel, you can be assured your love story will begin and end in success. Here are some messages from our past couples…
Niamh & Darragh
“From the moment we made contact with Denise and her team we felt so comfortable and relaxed. Every detail was discussed thoroughly and agreed upon and communication was easy and responses were quick. No question was too small or too silly. Denise and her team have a wealth of knowledge and were able to advise on everything and encouraged our creativity around guest books, table plans etc The hotel is fabulous inside and out with a lovely elegant yet homely feel to it. The food was amazing with guests still talking about it! Staff were so attentive and ensured everything ran as smoothly as possible so that we didn’t have to worry about it and just enjoy our day. I would 110% recommend the Radisson for any couples getting married”
Dean & Sylwia
“The minute we walked through the doors of the Radisson Sligo we just knew that we found our wedding venue, then we met with Denise and she was the icing to our decision. Literally all we had to provide for our day was flowers for our register table, sweets, crisps, everything and I mean EVERYTHING was provided by the hotel completely free of charge – we were just over the moon. The entire day went so flawless. Our guests were full of compliments for the whole team. They made everyone feel so welcome and had everything running like clockwork. Denise is second to none as a co-ordinator. She is fantastic at what she does and she does it all with such professionalism. They have made us memories to cherish forever and we are forever grateful.
Aethel & Colin
The Radisson Sligo was the first venue we went to see and Denise the wedding coordinator is just so good at her job that she had it sold to us in no time. To say the day went perfectly is an understatement. Absolutely everything about our day and the service we received from the hotel was just brilliant. The hotel supply so much for the big day and there was no hidden costs for anything on our final bill. We would highly recommend The Radisson, Sligo for your wedding based on value of the wedding, professionalism of staff, responsiveness with Denise and all the hotel has to offer for your day that I feel other hotels don’t have and you have to source yourself. Thanks again to you all.
Celebrate the big day with our PRE & POST
