Happy couple married in July

Such an amazing day

Would like to thank all the staff of the West Retford for a truly unforgettable day, all our guests said it was the best day ever. From start to finish these guys really looked after us from the wedding planners we met from our first meetings to Audrey and Natalie leading us through our day nothing was too much trouble. And the photos have given us some beautiful photos to treasure forever! There's no wonder they win award after award, year after year, so thank you ladies you were amazing.

Our perfect wedding day

The west Retford hotel went above and beyond to make sure we had the best wedding as possible! We had a few slight hiccups with mistakes from other people for dressing the wedding but the staff at the west Retford hotel did everything to make sure that this did not ruin our day and still made sure it was perfect! Thank you so much couldn’t recommend this venue enough!

A Small Intimate Wedding

We wanted our wedding to be very special (both in our 70’s) and the Best Western West Retford Hotel proved to be the ideal venue. We went for the afternoon tea as we could not make our minds up for the hot meals and we made the perfect choice. It was fantastic, the quality was exceptional and everyone thought the same. There was so much food and the service was wonderful. I would highly recommend this choice you will not be disappointed. Everything was made perfect for our special day, would I recommend, most definitely, do not hesitate, book now, you will not be disappointed.

Wonderful day and great support from the staff

We got married on March 24th this year and I have to say the West Retford both the staff and the venue are the prefect location. All the staff were more than helpful right from the pre wedding preparations to selecting favourite tunes at the end of the evening. Great compliments about the food. I really like that you have room to spread out whether it is outdoors or the large indoor facilities. Jessica the wedding planner at the hotel was great at keeping us on track. Would definitely recommend the West Retford

Not enough stars to give!!! Best venue ever.

We got married there last year. Everything was planned and prepared so well that all you need to do is to turn up in the white dress. They help so much. Her tell you where to go and what to do on what time which is very helpful if you’re getting married for a first time and you panic as you don’t know what to do. Best experience ever. I wish I could get married there every day!! Hotel itself look stunning and staff go are amazing. Food was amazing. They should receive 1000 starts out of 10! If you want wedding from your dreams- this is your venue and the team.
