I cannot praise the Holiday Inn enough for how they organised and hosted our special day. From the first meeting until the time, we left the day after our wedding, they could not have been more helpful and attentive. Every little detail was thought of, from the big things like timings, setting up, making sure we liked everything before the guests came in, setting up a room to get ready in just so we had more room for hair and make-up, to even having someone ready to pull out my chair so my dress fell right when we ate. Everything was absolutely stunning. They got every detail spot on and the staff we absolutely fantastic. We had photos outside by the trees and they were just stunning. Such a lovely background for it. The rooms are big and spacious, the tables were decorated beautifully, the flowers were gorgeous and the DJ was fantastic and did all the lighting to match the theme. And all this was included with my package. I cannot recommend them enough. It was beautiful. Thank you Holiday Inn, and special thank you to Jenny who organised

After viewing many different venues we walked into the Holiday Inn Newport and immediately felt it was right. Throughout the planning Jennifer and her team were absolutely outstanding, dealing with all our questions, concerns and last minute changes. Throughout the entire process we felt at ease, and were constantly encouraged to visit the venue in person to discuss anything we needed to over some complimentary drinks. On the day, our host Craig exceeded any expectations we had remaining in constant contact with us ensuring everything was up to our standard, and somehow managing to be next to us, without actually being near us. We stayed at the hotel the night prior and the night of, and both the ambience of the bar the night before, along with the quality of service in the restaurant the morning after added to the perfect day we had. The venue itself is surrounding by small wooded areas full of greenery making an ideal setting for photographs, along with Beechwood park being only a few minutes away providing further opportunities for photographs in the well kept flower gardens. Overall, the experience, enthusiasm and passion of the staff, paired with the quality and service of the venue made our special day just perfect. We would whole heartedly recommend the Holiday Inn a

From the moment we stepped into the Holiday Inn Newport, we knew it was the perfect place to celebrate our wedding. The staff were incredibly attentive and went above and beyond to ensure our wedding day was flawless. The food was delicious, and the venue's flexibility in accommodating our unique requests made our dream wedding a reality. The surrounding woodland was a beautiful backdrop for us to create perfect photos to remember our day. We received countless compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was and how smoothly everything ran. We are eternally
