We have only amazing things to say about our experience at the Royal Marine. Our wedding day was magic, the hotel was beautiful, but we really want to thank the staff that made it all happen. Nothing was too much, Dhriti was so professional, kind and an amazing support on the day. Jeff was 'the man' when it came to helping us pick our meal, plan the seating, his experience is priceless, and as for Healey, she couldn't have done more for us, she didn't miss a beat. All the staff on the day were just wonderful, so we really want to say a huge thank you to you all. We would and will highly recommend the Royal Marine for future events. Warm regards, Donatella and Garrett

We had our wedding reception at the Royal Marine Hotel after having our service at the Maritime Museum. From the start of the planning right through to the last days of collecting decorations, the staff helped us with the utmost respect and kindness. Dhriti was our wedding planner, and she was always very communicative and helpful with every question we had, giving us sound advice and making sure the day went off without any issues. On the day, she was so great at getting guests to where they needed to be, as well as calming me and my husband after all the emotions of the service. Additionally, Hayley at reservations helped immensely with room organisation. We had a few overseas guests, and she was more than accommodating to those who needed rooms on the night of the wedding. She went above and beyond, and we were so grateful. Finally, Malcolm was an exceptional host during the evening of the wedding, helping us with every request our hearts desired. He was so kind and generous with his time, and we could not be more thankful. All the staff, from the planning to reservations, security to management, we and our guests really felt welcomed and part of the Royal Marine family. The food was also delightful and plentiful, and guests never felt that they were underfed. The treats were very tasty, and presented very neatly so thank you to the kitchen staff. The night catered by the Royal Marine made me and my husband feel like we were royalty, and it is sure to be one of our best memories ever, thanks to the kindness, support and generosity of the hotel.

Thanks for your help with everything leading up and for your patience from the beginning as we were making up our mind. It all went great on the day, I know I at least was trusting that some of the details will go fine on the day and it really did, Dhriti really was a super help all the way through the day, she radiates calmness and kept us on track. And Malcolm too in the evening - we had met him at the tasting and he is an absolute pleasure to deal with. Please pass on our thanks to both in particular but also all the other staff who were brilliant.

We had the most wonderful wedding experience at the Royal Marine Hotel. We are based in London and had family and friends traveling over from the U.S., UK and Ireland so we really wanted somewhere that highlighted Irish charm and hospitality. We cannot believe how many guests have commented to us that we absolutely chose the best venue for our wedding. The hotel itself is so beautiful and we loved being able to have a view of the seafront during our reception. The staff at the Royal Marine Hotel were incredibly helpful in making sure everything went to plan and every detail was considered beforehand, especially as we were not local to the area. All of our wedding stress disappeared when we arrived because we were in such good hands and my husband and I were able to truly enjoy our wedding day without worrying about a thing! In particular, Jeff, Malcolm, and Dhriti went above and beyond to make sure all of our guests were looked after, not just on the wedding day itself, but the whole weekend! The Royal Marine Hotel holds a very special place in our hearts now and we cannot wait to visit again!

Myself and my wife celebrated our wedding in the Royal Marine hotel. It was a magnificent and magical day that we will both remember always. The staff and management and our wedding co-ordinator Dhriti were absolutely magnificent. They made sure that everything ran smoothly on the day and could not have been more helpful. They were extremely professional but also warm and welcoming. The layout of both the ceremony room and the wedding reception area was perfect. Catering for our guests who had specific dietary needs was no problem at all. We always knew that we would be in good hands with the Royal Marine but they far exceeded our expectations. We have no hesitation in recommending the Royal Marine hotel to anyone who is seeking the perfect venue for their wedding.

Our wedding reception at the Royal Marine Hotel was more than we could have hoped for. All the staff were extremely helpful and went out of their way to make it a fantastic day. In particular, Dhriti and her team were attentive to every detail. We live abroad and organised the wedding remotely but this posed no difficulty due to the fact that the team were available for phone calls or video calls any time we needed guidance. Hayley and the reservation team were very efficient. The Royal Marine Hotel is a beautiful venue and our guests from abroad and Ireland were very impressed with both the hotel and its surroundings. The food and service on the night were excellent thanks to Jeff, the floor manager, Alicia, and the rest of the staff. Everything went very smoothly on the day but we had two stressful moments regarding the flowers and the dress (due to our own negligence) which Dhriti and the team solved immediately. We were extremely grateful for their help. We would have no hesitation in recommending the Royal Marine Hotel to any couple looking for a venue for their celebration. It was a wonderful day and our guests have all told us how much they enjoyed it.

My husband Alex and I had our wedding reception at the Royal Marine hotel. Ashleigh assisted us in the run up to the wedding and made everything so easy for us and was a true professional. We had an amazing reception at the Royal Marine Hotel and loved every second of it. Our families and many of our guests expressed how impressed they were with the quality of the staff service and the quality and quantity of the food served. Our stay afterwards at the Royal Marine was also amazing, our room was of very high quality. Our guests expressed how impressed they were with their stay at the hotel and the quality of their rooms. I myself am from Dun Laoghaire, so I was really proud to show our guests how lovely the area is. The hotel and amazing reception really personified the loveliness of Dun Laoghaire. Alex and I sincerely recommend the Royal Marine hotel for any stay or wedding. Orla

We are completely blown away by how amazing everyone has been here - You, Istvan and teams, the chef, Hayley for giving everyone such great rooms, the ladies cleaning our room (especially the blonde girl, I didn't catch her name), the reception team, Liga and the breakfast team, everyone in Hardy's bar and bar staff on the night of the wedding, I could go on... Our day and week has been just so perfect. Everyone was so incredibly friendly, flexible, smiley, patient, professional, helpful and detail-oriented which we really appreciated... We could write a book about all the little things on the day and during the week that we loved and it was all down to you and the staff in the hotel... Our families had the most amazing amazing time - they too were blown away by how well organised the day was and how much they enjoyed themselves. Everyone has been so brilliant and we are so incredibly grateful.

We have had a lovely week as newly married! We wanted to say thank you for all your hard work for our wedding, you were so helpful and made planning from abroad so easy! We weren't stressed at all going into the big day! On the day, the Hotel's staff were incredible! So friendly and polite and bending over backwards to help in any way they could. The professional manner of all of them was truly a credit to the hotel. Thank you so much for everything, we really appreciate it.

I would like to say a huge Thank You to your entire team who have helped in the run up to the wedding and on the big day itself. We have received endless compliments about the beautiful location and I myself really appreciated the helpfulness and support of the staff especially when it seemed like things were falling apart and not going to plan. The day went better than I ever imagined and I look forward to coming back next year . Thank You for your kind well wishes, we arrived safely in Italy (Puglia) last night and look forward to starting our lives together as Mr & Mrs McKenna. Wishing you all the best.

Eurojee and I wanted to express how grateful we are on what happened during our wedding day. I personally set my expectations a lil bit low and was ready for anything to happen only because I was overwhelmed with the wedding preparations and I find it so stressful. Long story short it was the opposite of what happened on our wedding day. We both felt that our wedding day was perfect, magical and definitely magnificent in every possible way. We are truly grateful and appreciate all the people behind the event. All our guests and families were amazed of the venue, scrumptious food and drinks, kindness of the staff. We all enjoyed everything that day that we kind of set a standard and our guests wished they could have the same party for their son/daughters wedding. Once again we sincerely thank Daphne, for organising the event, Mr. Aidan Ryan, Mr. Colin Brown, Chef Karl, Mr. Roy, Mr. Istvan and the entire staff of Royal Marine Hotel for coordinating our wedding. We won't forget you guys and will definitely recommend Royal Marine Hotel to our friends and other future grooms and brides.

Daphne, myself and Simon just wanted to thank you so much for organising the best day of our lives, we had such an incredible time and we were so happy with the day. You did an excellent job and you have been so nice and you're such a lovely person! And we wish you all the very best in the future.

Hi Ashleigh, Let me extend our warmest thanks to you, Daphne and Prem, as well as the rest of the staff at the Royal Marine Hotel. We could not have asked for a better team. All of our guests felt so well taken care of, you really made the day go so smoothly. We were so impressed, thank you so much. Thank you again for all your help over the nearly 3 years that we've been planning this wedding with you. We would not hesitate to recommend the Royal Marine Hotel to any friends or family looking to plan a wedding in the future.

Thank you so much. We had a fantastic day. Everything was perfect from start to finish. The staff were incredible, particularly Prem, Roy and Ashleigh! The food was also incredible. Everybody was commenting on it and the room looked spectacular. We had an incredible day. Thank you so much for everything! We know it was not the numbers we had planned, but Royal Marine Hotel looked after us so well. We really do want to thank you for everything! All of our future events will be held at the Royal Marine Hotel!!

Johnny and I were extremely happy with our wedding in the Royal Marine Hotel. The entire team were fantastic! I found Ashleigh great to work with, and we would like to commend her for our wedding. The Royal Marine Hotel was the perfect place for our wedding, and I would recommend it to others. We will definitely come back for visits.

We had an absolutely amazing day! Our planning had started back in September, and the communication we received was brilliant. Over the next few weeks, we went up to visit the hotel twice and were treated so well each time. Even though our wedding was quite small, we were always made to feel like their number one priority. From the drinks reception to dinner, to accommodation, no small detail was left untouched, and all our queries were answered quickly and efficiently. As for the day itself, it was better than I think we had both anticipated, and the staff were brilliant throughout the whole day. We could not have been happier, and the 3 nights we spent afterwards staying in the hotel were magic.

We had the best day! The staff at the Royal Marine were just amazing and put us at ease from the first meeting with them. They really worked hard to make our day feel individual and put so much effort into discussing things and making sure it all came together so well. I was extra impressed to be allowed in to help set up the room the day before making me feel more relaxed knowing everything was done. Our guests all complimented the service from the staff and also the delicious food and I was amazed at how beautiful the flower centerpieces were. We had a lot of guests from abroad who mostly stayed in the hotel and loved it especially the beautiful views of Dun Laoghaire which also looked great in our wedding photos! Thank you to all at the Royal Marine Hotel.

We had an amazing day! They team were fantastic. Every member of staff was fantastic, with particular mention for Ollie and Gabby on the day, they couldn't have been better! Roy was a blessing, everything ran smoothly, he is is absolute pro and a gentleman!! I believe there was a mix up with the menus on the tables before guests entered the room but both myself and Chris had no idea, he handled everything with such grace and calmness! We also had the pleasure of dealing with Aiden also, he was so kind and thoughtful, his presence and wisdom for the day was greatly appreciated! The food was fantastic, and the set up was perfect. We couldn't have asked for better, and all our guest have echoed this back to us! Thank you so much for everything! We will be recommending the venue for any event/wedding within our friends/family! Mairéad & Christopher Farrell

Ashleigh, Thank you so much for your email. We had an unbelievable time. You and all the staff were fabulous. The room looked great, everything was how we wanted and the day went without a hitch! You made the run up to the day so calm and easy, thank you. On the day all of the staff were brilliant but we would particularly like to thank Ollie, Danika, Sophie and Roy. Thanks again Ashleigh, it was such a fantastic day. All of our guests were blown away by the hotel and the food! Rachel and Conor

Ashleigh, We just wanted to say a big thank you again for everything. Thank you so much for all your help throughout the planning, the lead up to the wedding and making sure everything was in order for us on the day. Thank you to Roy for all his help and for making sure everything ran smoothly on the day. A special thank you to Danka, she was so helpful and attentive on the day, she was brilliant with the kids and we just felt she really went above and beyond. So many of our guests complimented how great she was. Thank you to the chef and kitchen staff who did an amazing job on all the food, it was so delicious and enjoyed by everyone. Thank you to all the other staff that day who helped to make our day so great. Our day was absolutely perfect and we could not fault anything about it. We would highly recommend The Royal Marine. Melissa and Colm

Ashleigh, I just wanted to say thank you to you for everything. I would also like to mention Roy, Gabby and Ollie. They are exceptional staff members and went above and beyond for us. Also thank you to Danka who looked after us during dinner service and breakfast. Also say thank you to Hannah and Shirley. So sad it’s all over would do it again in a heartbeat!!! Sharon & Tex

We had an absolutely amazing wedding day and weekend. From beginning to end we could not fault one thing. The room looked amazing thanks to Danka and the staff. John was just a dream to work with. Andrew and Paul from the Thursday evening until I came back to collect my car was just absolutely amazing and Niall, everyone kept talking about how friendly and helpful and kind he was. I did not catch the bar man from the Saturday's name but he was so lovely and the lads had a laugh with him. All of our guests have made comments on the hotel and the staff and said they would recommend it to anyone as they just had such an amazing time.. The Germans loved Paul by the way. Both Mark and I have agreed that the Royal Marine is not just where we had our wedding is but is like another home and that is down to yourself and the staff. We hope to come down over the next few weeks and take the staff up on their word to visit. *Wedding Co-ordinator - Ashleigh - Wedding - April 2019*
