Steph

5.0 out of 5 rating

As we approach our first wedding anniversary, I wanted to take a moment to reflect on and share a review of our wedding day at The Grand Hotel in Sunderland. From the very beginning, our day was impeccably organised by the wonderful Leanne. Her communication throughout the planning process was exceptional—emails were responded to promptly, and every query was met with practical, helpful advice. Our wedding was bittersweet, as I had sadly lost my Mam—who was meant to give me away—just weeks before the big day. I was in a very delicate emotional state, and Leanne’s kindness, sensitivity, and support made an overwhelming difference. She handled everything with such care that it truly helped me navigate a very difficult time. There was a small hiccup with the table plan on the day (my mistake), and Leanne acted immediately to resolve it seamlessly. Thanks to her quick thinking, our guests were completely unaware, and the day continued without interruption. From start to finish, the entire day was flawless. We held our ceremony in the smaller upstairs suite and our reception in the main hall. The room looked incredible—we opted for the caterpillar-style table layout, which our guests absolutely loved. The canapé reception was fantastic, and both the food and service throughout the day were outstanding. The bridal suite was stunning—spacious, modern, and complete with beautiful sea views Our wedding at The Grand Hotel was everything we hoped for and more. The venue, the team, and especially Leanne, created a day that was beautiful, smooth, and truly memorable.
