Achray house went above and beyond to make our day special,truly outstanding!
From day one of me being in touch with Achray house to them hosting our wedding day, we could not fault them in any way at all. I can’t express in words just how amazing they were.
Every single member of staff had attention to detail and so helpful to all of our guests in the hotel.
The food was also so delicious, we could not believe the standard of cooking. The most perfect wedding food! The chefs were also lovely. We spoke to the main chef Ryan and he was lovely and made the most amazing food for us to enjoy our special day.
The bar manager Ken was so helpful attending to anything at all we needed and last but certainly not least was our lovely wedding planner Lyndsey. She was absolutely amazing! She was unbelievably efficient, professional but also lovely and caring too and willing to go the extra mile to make sure we felt happy relaxed and that our day was just perfect. This is the type of wedding planner every woman wants. Lyndsey had contacts, lots of ideas and thank goodness she had thought of things I hadn’t. Truly amazing. Despite having a busy family life Lyndsey was always available to me for answers questions and always prompt in her responses.
I would not change anything about the day and would do it all again and want the staff to celebrate our day with us. We highly recommend Achray house for a place to have your wedding day! You will be certainly looked after and they will make your day more special than you can imagine!
