Incredible experience, Kelly our coordinator was exceptional.

Kelly I want to thank you for the care and attention you personally gave to ourselves, the wedding and our families. Your sunny, bubbly personality put us all at ease, nothing was too much trouble and you went above and beyond for our wedding.

I have waited until I had time to write this because I wanted to ensure the feedback, attempted to do justice to the initial enquiries and arrangements, the actual wedding and the after care provided.

Matt and I had a number of difficulties during the year running up to the wedding, I honestly thought we would be looking at having to cancel but the events team were brilliant and saved our day by tailoring everything to the budget we ended up with, without any issues or complaint, in fact the support and understanding was beyond expectation. Once we were allocated to you as our coordinator nearer our wedding and we met to discuss everything, I was instantly put at ease by your calm, friendly and welcoming manner. You helped us achieve what we had in mind, including what the veggies had to eat, getting the bunting I supplied put up, working with us to get our decorations on site and arranging the 2p favours for our guests, which was talked about afterwards as the best wedding favours anyone ever had 😂

The wedding was incredible, it was all the little things, like the card and Mr & Mrs Gonks left for us, my girls, my mother and I loved the bridal suite for getting ready in, you got my grandmother a blanket and offered her a hot drink because she was cold, dealing with our music, liaising with photographers and ensuring all the turn around points went smoothly. I know I provided the decorations but you put it all together and it looked stunning. When the flower arch was delivered I realised the batteries for the lights had run out and you must have put new batteries in because they were on and working for the ceremony❤.

Everybody gave compliment after compliment for how beautiful and unique our wedding was, they all had a lot of fun, I think the older males in our families reverted back to childhood and were running around the arcade wide eyed and having a go on everything more so than the actual kids, this also applied to the sweet cart🤣 Everyone loved the fish and chip supper, the gravy was a hit, my Mum is asking for the recipe, she said it was bloody lovely.

The DJ supplied through yourselves was great, obviously we are a bit of a mad bunch so the party was always going to be a good one. The pier staff assisting with the wedding were also friendly, welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us.

At the end of the day we didn’t have to worry about anything apart from tipsily making our way back to the hotel, you made it easy for us to come back the following day and collect everything that you had carefully packed up for us. Another surprise was that you had kept the top tier of our cake for us to take home, I was so pleased because with all the dancing I forgot to eat any, so we took a few slices on honeymoon with us to have with a cuppa.

I can honestly say our wedding will be lovingly reflected on for some time to come, it brought a lot of joy to a lot of people, everyone said it will be remembered for how beautiful, fun and unique it was and also the obvious love and connection Matt and I have for each other.

Thank you with all our hearts to all The Grand Pier staff involved in our wedding, we are so very grateful you were our coordinator.

Absolutely perfect!

We had a perfect day. Our wedding co-ordinator, Faith, Kari and the whole team went over and above to make sure everything went smoothly on our special day. Nothing was too much trouble. The venue was great, with lots of space, light and spectacular views from the balcony and the food was excellent. I would highly reccommend the Grand Pier to anyone getting married.

The best ever

Having our wedding at the Pier was honestly the best thing we ever done! We had looked so many other venues and honestly we had given up hope. But we found the Pier by accident, and honestly was the best accident! The team here are absolutely great at what they do and go above and beyond. Thankyou all so much! I highly recommend your venue!

Punches above its weight in every respect!

The Grand Pier exceeded all our expectations – on their price, food, service, and tailoring the offering to our needs. Cat, our wedding planner, was responsive and worked with us to realise our dreams. We had not tasted the food before, so it was a bit of a leap of faith. It was really delicious and many guests commented on how tasty and beautifully presented the four course dinner was. The Tiffany has spectacular views throughout the day. It looked great with long tables for 90, and space for a dance floor included. On the night, the team, especially Charlotte, worked with military precision to get all the timings perfect. The price of the venue was extremely reasonable and the service offered could not have been better. Getting to use the rides/ arcade was a really fun touch that the guests loved, both those young and old. It was truly an unforgettable day and can't recommend it enough!

Just ecstatic

I wanted to say that we were blown away by the service offered but the Pier. You were so responsive and helpful all the way through. The room looked amazing on the night, it was better than I could have hoped for and many guests said how stunning it looked.

The service of all the staff was fantastic. Charlotte was so on it on the night and organised on the floor. The food was delicious.

All in all we were just ecstatic at how it turned out and you and the team did an amazing job.

Thank you Cat for everything!

The most awesome time

We both had the most awesome time, the food was yummy, atmosphere relaxed and everything flowed smoothly - which is just how we wanted it. Thank you for all your help with that.

Thank you too for being so flexible and chopping and changing the plan to suit our spur-of-the-moment ideas and work around our beach photography moments.
The ceremony room set-up and dinner tables looked marvellous and you and your team did a fantastic job - it couldn't have suited us, or looked any better! :)

Several people have said how great the day was and a few even rating it as one of the best days in their lives!

Thank you again for making our special day really special and everything that we wanted from it! We really really appreciate it.

The most amazing day ever

I know everyone says their wedding was the most amazing day ever – but this one really was!

Everything you did, all your hard work and long hours paid off – the room looked fantastic, both for the ceremony and the
wedding breakfast.

Everyone commented on the excellent food – the heart shaped croutons in the soup were a lovely touch!

The serving staff were unobtrusive but always to hand, very polite and helpful.

The most fabulous wedding on the Grand Pier

Thank you so very much for making our wedding day so very, very special.
What a memorable day it was. We are so glad we chose the Tiffany Room as our venue, it looked absolutely
stunning. The food was also amazing. Meeting friends and family after the event they, like us,
are still talking about the most fabulous wedding they went to on the Grand Pier

Most amazing day ever

Just to say we had our wedding on the pier at Weston super mare on 21/09/2013, it was the most amazing day ever, we couldn't have been looked after better, our wedding planner Gayle was with us from the first moment we met at the wedding fayre until the day of our wedding, I can honestly say she was priceless. She was with us on our wedding day until the end of the night, she went over and above board on what she did, we had our venue in the Tiffany Room which we had all day for everything, it was amazing from the decor to the waiters they were out of this world. As we had a civil ceremony we had to have registrars brought in, they were so kind and more than willing to explain anything we needed to know. All our guests commented on the day on how brilliant a venue it was, I can't praise everyone enough for their hard work especially Gayle who we couldn't have done it without, thank you isn't enough.
