Wonderful wedding

Christie and Craig McGarrell tied the knot at The Vermont Hotel on 10 August 2019. Here they tell us about their special day and how they intend to keep returning to the stunning venue that will always have a special place in their hearts...

The couple: Christie and Craig McGarrell

We decided to say ‘i do’ at this venue because… As soon as we stepped into The Vermont Hotel, we knew this was where we wanted to get married. It radiates elegance and sophistication and has a timeless feel. The atmosphere was exactly what we were looking for and we loved the art deco style. The Ballroom had everything we wanted: large beautiful windows, an adjoining room with a bar for guests to relax and the most breathtaking chandelier. The staff were all so helpful and put us at ease straight away. When we met our wedding co-ordinator, we knew that everything would be taken care of and completed to a high standard.

Our highlights from the big day… Everything about the day was amazing. Walking down the aisle surrounded by friends and family and the beautiful setting was memorable. Dancing together under the incredible chandelier was one of the highlights; it was truly magical. Special details… The Vermont’s staff were all brilliant. Nothing was too small of a detail; everything was taken care of. Fyzal, our photographer, was incredible and captured all of the natural key moments from our day, which we constantly look back on. One special moment was taking some time, just myself and Craig, to really appreciate the day.

Our guests said… ...that it was one of the best weddings they had ever been to. The day was planned so guests were constantly provided for and informed of timings. From start to finish, everyone enjoyed themselves.

We first returned as a happy couple to… … enjoy our first anniversary meal which was just as delicious as the food on our big day. Since then, we have attended special events for family celebrations and always love to visit for afternoon tea. It will always hold a special place in our hearts. Whenever we go, we reminisce about our wedding and relive that unique feeling.

We’ll be back for… … our next anniversary! We will always return to The Vermont Hotel for that, it will become a tradition. We frequently book evening meals at The Maven restaurant, afternoon tea in the lounge and can not wait to visit ABOVE soon.
