I told my husband if we didn't get married at the Grosvenor, we were not getting married! Amazing!

Emma is fantastic, I mithered her to death before the wedding, nothing was too much trouble, she's amazing! I went to a lot of venues to look around, nothing compared to the Grosvenor. The decor, the staff, the communication is fantastic. Emma had all the time in the world for us, especially my mum. Ben did a great job, if I asked a question, he knew the answer and made us feel at ease. The food was amazing, since the wedding people have not stopped telling me how beautiful it was. I cannot thank all at the Grosvenor enough for making our day so special. It was like a fairy tale. We are going to come back each anniversary, we can't think of a better way to spend it! Amazing!

Nothing was too much trouble

Emma was fab, she put me at ease and nothing was too much trouble, even with all the questions and continual changes. Alistair was amazing. Kept so cool and calm and passed on the info perfectly. Even my guests complimented him. Can't fault the staff. My mother was particularly impressed with the reception staff who took great care in looking after Penny her little dog. The room looked amazing! Blown away and just as I had planned and asked for. All my guests commented on it being such a wonderful venue and quality staff. They all played their part in making our day fabulous.
