A Few Kind Words...
If you are considering the Hillgrove as your wedding venue... Book it! They are nothing short of amazing and when I say they go above and beyond, I mean NOTHING is a problem. Their attention to detail and hospitality is exceptional. The team work extremely hard to make your day perfect and I really have a sadness that our interactions are complete, we really feel they are friends at this point.
The packages are extensive, suiting all budgets and they are happy to adjust things to suit. The food was wow! Our guests loved it all, especially the Volau-vent!The bar staff are friendly and fun and enjoyed interacting with the guests, always smiling and seemed to enjoy themselves just as much as our guests. The reception room is stunning! I fell in love instantly and they give you lots of options and extras that you would normally have to outsource such as candy cart, etc.
The team are the highlight for me a massive thank you to Dean the wedding coordinator and Liz both catered to our every need. And also Evelyn who tended the top table all day. Exceptional!
Tanya & Gary - Nov 2024
We had the absolute pleasure of working with Dean as our wedding coordinator, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very first interaction, Dean was incredibly responsive—always quick to answer any questions, no matter how big or small. His approachability and friendliness made the entire planning process so much smoother, and we felt comfortable reaching out to him at any time.
Dean offered fantastic advice throughout, guiding us with his expert knowledge of weddings and ensuring every detail was perfect. Whether it was vendor recommendations, timeline suggestions, or creative ideas to make our day special, he truly went above and beyond. His calm and professional demeanor allowed us to fully trust him, knowing our wedding was in great hands.
Thanks to Dean, we had the stress-free, beautiful day we always dreamed of! Every one of our immediate family mentioned how attentive he was to, not just myself and my partner, but everyone at the top table and our guests. Highly recommending the Hillgrove to couples and Dean is definitely a huge reason for this.
Michaela & Ryan - July 2024
We had our wedding reception in the Hillgrove Hotel in Monaghan. The Hillgrove was the first hotel we viewed, the feeling we got and the information from Dean that day was first class, we soon realised as we viewed others, nowhere else came close. During the months of planning, and the lead up to the wedding our wedding coordinator Dean was amazing! Anything we asked for was not a bother, and all my emails/questions however big or small were answered quickly and clearly which is a delight to the organised bride to be that I was.
On the day of our wedding, the ballroom and entrance were set up perfectly, all our wee personal touches were carefully set up by the team and the food on arrival was highly praised by our guests. The dinner itself was absolutely amazing, the portions were huge and the taste was amazing!
On the day Dean, Liz and Kaylon run the whole day without a hitch, we were impressed with the level of communication of and importantly made sure we were happy with everything along the way, which may I add we were! I can safely say that all the guests had an amazing day and highly commented on the fabulous selection and quality of the food, great service from the staff. Especially the great care and attention given by staff to disabled guests, offering an extra hand without hesitation.
We would highly recommend the Hillgrove Hotel for weddings, they have a range of packages and the room décor itself is beautiful. The staff truly made myself and my husband feel special and valued from day one right up till the days after our wedding,
Marian & Cathal - Aug 2024
From our first hello to our wedding day, we cannot even describe the professionalism and dedication shown to us from Dean and all of the staff at the Hillgrove Hotel. Dean was always there to help and guide us through the whole process. Our wedding day was the best day of our lives and it is a credit to Dean for making it happen!
