Thank you so much for all of your help

Dear Hayley,
Thank you so much for all of your help with our wedding lunch.
We had such a wonderful day and so many compliments about the lunch, the venue and the staff. I’m sorry I didn’t see you there to say face to face how happy we were that we chose you and the Aviator.
We also had a beautiful room to stay that night, and some nice surprises when we returned to it after the party. All down to you I am sure, we were blown away.
I hope you continue to have a very successful year of celebrations.
Warmest regards,
Lizzie & Alex

The best day of our life

Hi Hayley,

Honestly, I don’t even know where to begin. Yesterday really was the best day of our life and we really could not have done it without you and the incredible team at the Aviator.

It was absolutely faultless. We still can’t get over everything and how smooth everything ran for us yesterday.
From the moment we first walked in the door for our show around in 2017 to when we eventually left the hotel this afternoon, we have been impressed every single second.

Please please pass this email onto every single member of staff and your GM as everyone we spoke with over the weekend could not have been more helpful and went out of there way every single time to help us have the dream day that we really did have. The team at the Aviator really are the definition of hospitality.

The food was simply AMAZING. We have had so many comments about how lovely the wedding breakfast was (the heart ice blocks did make for an interesting 20 minutes). Who knew chicken could taste as wonderful as that! The evening buffet was phenomenal. We weren’t really hungry – but the spread that you put out was brilliant. So many people commented how it was the best wedding buffet they had ever had and so much better than soggy sandwiches

Thanks again!

A very happy Mr & Mrs Gibbons!

Best day of our lives!

Thank you so much to Hayley and all the operations team at the aviator. Everything was absolutely perfect, the food, the atmosphere and the organisation were all fantastic. we loved the design of the hotel and it’s close to our family, which is why we looked at the Aviator. After our first meeting there it was clear that no other venue could compare! The staff went out of the way to make sure it was our perfect day! Thank you again to the Aviator!

Hi Hayley,

We just wanted to say a massive thank you for all your help with the wedding. The day was perfect, we couldn't have wished for better. Special thanks also to the Ops guys (can't remember their names, sorry), they took great care of us and our guests right to the end of the night. All our guests have commented on the food and how delicious it was so thanks to Adam as well.

Emma and Gary

A perfect and stress-free day

We chose the Aviator because of its stunning design and the ability for us to have the ceremony and reception all under one roof.

The format of our wedding day was slightly different to the normal way of doing things but Chelsea and Peter were fantastic in putting our ideas into practice, and even added some special touches that really added to the occasion. Peter made us both feel incredibly special on the day and looked after our every need, including a replay of the Grand National!!

The food looked and tasted fantastic, both for the reception and for breakfast the next morning - all our guests were raving about it.

We had a suite for the weekend which was absolutely gorgeous - just wish we had stayed there another night or two.

Overall we would thoroughly recommend the Aviator for a wedding ceremony, reception, or both. Our day was everything we could have wished for, and then some. Looking forward to heading back for the one year anniversary!!

Aviator made this our very special day

We looked at other venues but the atmosphere and chic class of the Aviator made us enquire further. From the minute we started the process we knew we had made the right choice. Organising our wedding felt like we had a concierge with us every step of the way. My wife and I have fabulous memories of the day and our guests still say it was the best wedding food they ever tasted! I highly recommend the Aviator as a venue, the staff team involved are second to none and the rooms, service, views, photo's are exceptional and made our wedding a truly, very special day. I would give them a 6 if the scale went that high!

One of the best choices we made...

Bex and I chose the aviator for many reasons, firstly because of how it looks and the atmosphere it creates but also because of the location - what a view!

We were immediately impressed by the way in which we were treated and catered for. The whole process was painless and completely effortless. The team (especially Chelsea) looked after us every step of the way, every email and call was actioned and or replied to immediately.

On the day we were not disappointed, from the moment we arrived we were all treated like royalty, the staff couldn’t be more helpful and treated every request as their first.

The food, from the canapés to the evening buffet was exquisite (and tailored to our needs)...compliments to the chef, it was all beyond our expectations.

I was invited to write this review, and in all honestly every word written is the God’s honest truth, we couldn’t of asked for more.

Who says that weddings are one of the most stressful things in life!

Always knew it would be beyond fabulous.

Right from the start, we always knew that Aviator was the wedding venue for us, having experienced the fantastic service and quality regularly since opening in 2008. Our Civil Partnership was made such a memorable day by the attention to detail and attentiveness of staff. If you really care about the quality of food, service and comfort of your guests, in refreshingly chic and modern surroundings then this is the hotel for you. Chelsea, who liaised with us regularly on the planning of our special day, made us feel like VIPs (as did all staff) and gave useful advice along the way too. On the day, Peter, our Event Manager was outstanding and everything went brilliantly, consistently exceeding high expectations. The building itself was a breathtaking backdrop for photographs and we have had some really amazing photos back as a result – especially the rotunda in the middle. Considering the very high standard of the hotel, we believe the prices are extremely fair. We really couldn’t recommend Aviator highly enough – it's all about comfortable, friendly luxury; that’s exactly what we got, and then some.
