Best day of our lives thanks to Aoibhinn!
It was all go with only 6 months to plan, and we couldn’t have chosen a better venue to help support us in that. Aoibhinn’s experience absolutely shone through, and she pointed us in all the right directions to get our ‘wedmin’ together. All the Glen Tanar Tanar recommended suppliers were simply amazing in the process running up to the big day. We had the best day of our lives thanks to Aoibhinn, Glen Tanar & all our incredible suppliers. We cannot thank you enough!

Fantastic Day!
Thank you so much for the kind wishes! We had a fantastic day and weekend. You were fantastic to work with, so much patience and always calm even when we repeated the same question twenty times! Also many thanks for all your help on Friday with the setup, I’m not sure we would have every finished without you. We loved the cottages, particularly the layout and furnishings of the Woodend and East Millfield cottages! Many Thanks!
