Absolutely amazing!

What can we say. This was the most perfect setting for our wedding. The wedding from start to finish was absolutely amazing, everything was magical. The whole package was fantastic value. We chose the twilight package as we didn't want a huge wedding. It was perfect in every single way.

Ella and her team were a pleasure, they made sure everything was perfect and they really worked hard to provide the best service.

The food was absolutely delicious for a hot food buffet, everyone said it was delicious. They even made sure the bbq could still happen although the weather wasn't fantastic, they put a gazebo out just for us. Myself and Luke cant thank everyone enough.
The waterfront will forever have a special place in our heart.

Make yourself an appointment and when you see the room and view, you will want to book! The room is huge, has its own bar and toilets. It is totally secluded from the rest of the hotel.

We loved our Wedding...

Well we were originally going to have a quiet wedding at the town hall followed by a meal with the families so we booked to go to the town hall for a viewing.... So glad we did as neither of us were very impressed, we just looked at each other and said, no way! So we went looking at other venues and had almost made our minds up when we decided to just drop in at the Waterfront. So glad we did! It was done up for a Xmas party at the time but as soon as we walked into that room, with that view...we knew it was the right place for us. We got chatting to some guy who was helping to set out tables, who was really helpful and knowledgeable...turned out he was the general manager, Frank! We walked away, excited and impressed!
We got in contact with the events coordinator who became our wedding organiser, Ella. Ella was wonderful from start to finish, even meeting us at the venue at the weekends when it was her time off. She made everything very easy and took the stress out of the whole thing, she made sure we were happy every step of the way (which we were!) and the whole day went smoothly, without a hitch. The venue looked wonderful, the food was excellent and we enjoyed the day immensely. Special thanks to Diva who took over as Master of Ceremony on the day, she was wonderful too! Would we recommend the Waterfront? Absolutely, we would. We had guests come in from all over the country and abroad and everybody, bar none, enjoyed the day and their stay. Thank you Ella, Frank and the team, you really made our day special!

McNamara - Gillow wedding Feb 2025

We chose The Waterfront as our location due to the welcoming, warm staff and the relaxed lovely feel of the event room. From the very beginning the process was made so simple with the professionalism and efficiency of The Waterfront. Our co-ordinator was Ella and she helped us throughout the whole process by keeping in touch and checking that we had everything in place for the day. Her warmth and professionalism and helpful advice made it all so easy and there was no stress at all. The Waterfront has a connection with a company that provides wedding decor for the room and the 2 ladies who did this were also brilliant and handled everything for us based on our chosen colour palette. The whole day was perfect. The staff working on the day from arrival for the Wedding Breakfast through to the last orders that night were excellent and so capable. The views from the hotel over the Marine lake were stunning. Cannot find any fault at all and highly recommend The Waterfront.
