Westport Woods has the perfect set up for a destination wedding. Gerard and I got married on the 14th June 2019, in Lecanvey Church and held our reception in Westport Woods Hotel. It was perfect, and this was thanks to Joanne and Michael, Caroline and Seamus and all the Staff at Westport Woods hotel, who made our day. In the months coming up to the wedding, no request was too big or small. Joanne was aware and very understanding that I had final exams coming up and timed any meetings/phone calls perfectly according to my schedule. Joanne is a jack of all trades. She was cleaning car oil (I picked up on the beach) off my wedding dress when I returned to the hotel! Caroline was very helpful and accommodated any request I had, and always came back with a number of options.

We are 7 month into married life now, and We were looking back on our amazing Wedding day! We had such a great day, it's true what they say, it really was one of the best days of our lives! It definitely was down to a lot of planning, however, this was made so much easier with experienced Wedding Coordinators at The Westport Wood Hotel. We chose the Hotel for its great location close to Westport, outside of the town with good parking & accommodation facilities. We also feel in love with the ballroom it was chic & modern (with recent renovation works in Ballroom) also having its own bar it meant all our guests would remain in the same area. Joanne, Seamus & Caroline were fantastic in all aspects of planning out our day, any queries I had they would have an answer to help with my questions almost straight away, even for those silly questions. They were flexible with table planning which I felt would be the hardest part, they made it a breeze. So having said all of that I would highly recommend The Westport Wood Hotel for anyone considering a Wedding in Westport. Lovely Staff, Great Location, Amazing food, Beautiful Ballroom!!! Thank You Joanne , Seamus & Caroline for the great memories! xx

What can I say about our experience with the Westport Woods Hotel. From the minute we went to look at the Woods for a wedding venue it was perfect. The staff went above and beyond for us as the bride & groom but also for our wedding guests, nothing was too big or small of a job for them and I cannot thank them enough for all the hard work they put into making our day super special. The food was fabulous and the service is just out of this world. I cannot recommend the Westport Woods highly enough and we will definitely be back to stay with them in the future. Thank you so so much :)

The staff in the Westport Woods were a pleasure to deal with all the way through the process of planning and organising. They always replied to queries in good time and made us feel welcome and relaxed at every meeting. Meeting times were very flexible, at all times there was one of the coordinating team on hand to answer any questions we had. On the day they really were a delight, taking all the pressure off us so we could enjoy our day and time with our guests. We had to change schedule of speeches on the day as we ran late arriving at the venue but this was no hassle to Seamus and the staff. The venue itself is relaxed and beautiful, the grounds were gorgeous for our photos and even the indoor space where we took our family pictures was a lovely backdrop. The food was delicious - portion sizes were generous, arrived at the tables hot and all guests were offered extras of everything. Room rates for the guests were very good also. I would highly recommend the hotel and the staff.

Westport Woods was amazing. We dealt Seamus and nothing was too much. He was fantastic and so easy to deal with. On the day anything we requested was done 100%. From the minute we met with him nothing was too much to ask for. The hotel was gorgeous and the food was absolutely out of this world. Would definitely recommend this venue to future couples.

From the minute Ibooked our wedding I was met by the wedding organiser seamus lally who was absolutly amazing from start to finish and throughout the whole day.The organisation of the rooms,the venue and the staff was an absolute treasure throughout the whole experience. On behalf of myself and my husband Pat we would like to send our sincere thank you to the the woods hotel and to all there staff.

We decided to go with Westport woods because we were having a civil ceromony and we loved the room where they gold there ceremonies. We were dealing with Caroline she was very helpful from the day we booked our day up until the day after the wedding. Also Seamus was very helpful on the morning of the wedding and through out the whole day. We had an amazing day.

We had our wedding at the lovely Westport Woods Hotel on the 21st of June 2019. From the time we booked the venue all the way up until our wedding day and after, the standard of care, courtesy and professionalism was second to none. Nothing was a problem and anything we needed to know re wedding Joanne, Caroline & Seamus were always on the other side of the phone or email. We also had extra requirements as we were trying to infuse 2 cultures into the wedding and again they made our ideas/dreams come true!! Our wedding day came and everything was brilliant Food was out standing, we had a BBQ menu with a buffet which suited all diets requirements and also a Pig on the Spit. The venue itself is so conveniently located in such a beautiful scenic area, perfect for wedding photos! We had that 'Fairy Tale' rustic ceremony outside and it was unreal. Thank you guys so much, you truly made our day! I had a few tables i needed set up for the day e.g. guest signing table and sweet table etc and omg they were done to perfection. The one thing I loved was I didn't have to worry about anything on the day Joanne and her team had everything under control and they went above and beyond our expectations. everyone at the wedding had a fantastic day and are still raving about the food and the hotel and how everything was done so fluidly.I would highly recommend The Westport Woods Hotel for your wedding or any occasion .

Seamus and Caroline were a dream to work with great ideas and were able to give great advise to help our day run smoothly. We wanted something little more relaxed and party feel and they done exactly that. The woods outdoor area is fab we actually were able to get married outside they made this happen was just beautiful. We had the bbq the food was fab and guests were raving about it and could go back for seconds. We had a friends wedding there 2weeks ago seat down meal was also really tasty. Highly recommend the woods for the room,outdoors, staff and for the wedding team.

From the moment we had our first meeting with Seamus the fabulous wedding co-ordinator, we knew we wanted to have our special day at the Westport Woods Hotel. The grounds and reception room are stunning and the staff are wonderful. The wedding team Caroline, Joanne and Seamus were always on hand and nothing was too much trouble. They gave great advise and really made us feel relaxed as everything was taken care of. They are true professionals and I would highly recommend the Westport Woods Hotel. Only wish we could do it all again, we had an amazing day. Thanks guys

We highly advise to plan your wedding at the Westport Woods Hotel & Spa. Highlights: Beautiful and spacious Hotel, large renovated courtyard by the woods; Offer Ceremony set up; Spa, swimming pool, gym Service is absolutely amazing and genuinely helpful; the wedding team is always responsive and provide supplier advice; wedding coordinator included in our package. An all in: choice of wedding packages (a brilliant price quality ratio); decorations including: choice of flower arrangements for the tables and decorations of the room (lights) for the dinner; decorations of the room for the ceremony (you can add do your own as well); print table seat assignments; coordinate with the vendors directly; Our dream wedding at the Westport Woods Hotel & Spa: In Summer 2018, we decided to host our wedding in Westport Co. Mayo Ireland. My husband and I live in Ohio, U.S., I am French & Canadian and he is American. My mother-in-law Irish heritage and my obsession with Ireland were the reason we chose County Mayo, Ireland for our special day. The first venue we visited was the Westport Woods Hotel & Spa, where we had the pleasure to be welcome by the owner, Joanne. Prior to our arrival, Joanne provided us with very useful information on the venue to help prepare for our destination wedding. We met her in person and fell in love with the people and the Hotel. It wasn’t that long after that we set the wedding date: August 24, 2019. We chose to have our wedding at the Westport Woods Hotel & Spa for multiple reasons. First, we were enchanted by Westport; a very colourful, unique & animated little town by the Clew Bay. Then we arrived at the Hotel, where we were so nicely welcome. The venue is beautiful; by the woods with a charming steel gazebo, recently renovated courtyard and hotel; perfect for wedding pictures and the first look. We thought it was optimal for a destination wedding. It has all you need for your guests: special rates for the guests, a bar with live music, a huge restaurant, a gym, a swimming pool and a Spa. We also chose the Hotel, as the package included the service of a wedding coordinators. A large selling point for us. When planning a destination wedding, we knew we needed help to have suppliers contacts, recommendations and coordinate the wedding for us from afar. Cherry on top, my family is French and one of the wedding coordinator happens to be French… Imagine our surprise! We were delighted, the venue just checked all the boxes! Thanks to our wedding coordinator, Caroline, we found it smooth to organize it from Ohio. She was very flexible with her schedule to accommodate us. We had biweekly skype calls in the last few months before the wedding to coordinate for our big day! She guided us and advised us when choosing our vendors (music, photographer, videographer, flowers, cakes,...). Again, we highly advice to plan your wedding at the Westport Woods Hotel & Spa. It is perfect for a a local or a destination wedding. We were 70, and nearly all the guests were at the hotel. They all loved it! The food is from local vendors/distributors. The hors d’oeuvres, the dinner were simply amazing. Bravo to the chef, and the staff on the floor, who were very efficient, attentive, kind and talented! A huge thank you to Caroline and Seamus for making our day simply perfect! And more…

Dermot and I would highly recommend Westport woods as a wedding venue. The entire team were fantastic to speak with during the planning and super efficient on the day itself. The room was set up beautifully and everything was immaculate. The food and wine was amazing and with no wait! The layout of the room and outside area really contributed to our guests having a brilliant time as it kept everyone together and the atmosphere relaxed! We would love to do it all over again, I would recommend booking it without hesitation! We are back for a friends wedding soon and cannot wait! Thanks again Seamus, Caroline and Joanne!

We got married in the Westport Woods on 6th July. Our ceremony and reception were held in the hotel. It was amazing. From our first contact with Caroline and Seamus to the final product, everything was so easy and fun. We had such a blast on the day with everyone commenting on how fantastic the hotel was. The food was out of this world and was served around the tables with precision! :) There is a brilliant flow from the ceremony to the drinks reception and onto the main reception itself and its lovely that there is either an outdoor ceremony choice or indoor in a different room to where the evening reception is held. We cannot speak highly enough of the staff and hotel itself. The grounds are fabulous around the hotel as well so pictures are so easy :) Thanks again - we will be back for our anniversary x

The wedding team at The Westport Woods were absolutely fantastic to deal with. From start to finish, they were flawless to deal with. On the day itself, everything went so smoothly. And I have to say that Seamus, Caroline, and Joanne really made us both feel calm and confident on the day. We opted for a BBQ wedding and although the weather wasn't on our side on the day, it really didn't matter. Our guests and us were simply thrilled with the food, the service, and the overall feel of the wedding reception room. Seamus was especially helpful with setting this up on the morning of — so many thanks for that! Thanks again to the wedding team at The Westport Woods! We would highly recommend!

We originally had our wedding booked for July 2019. Early this year we got news that changed everything. I contacted Joanne in The Westport Woods Hotel in January and she could not be more supportive and accommodating to our requests and wishes. We were constantly in touch with each other which made things so much easier on us. Seamus was just a godsend nothing was ever a problem no job too big or small, he always gave 100%. The day of our wedding went so smoothly thanks to all the staff and their hard work. All of our guests praised the staff and management of the hotel so much they thought the service they received at our wedding was unbelievable from the beautiful food to the decor. We would love to do it all over again. A huge thank you to Seamus, Joanne and staff for making our day so special xx

From the moment we went to look at Westport woods hotel we fell in love!! Seamus and Joanne are just wonderful to work with and made everything feel so easy and relaxed!! The day itself, I can’t thank Seamus and Joanne enough, from the stunning function room to the delicious food and every little detail in between. Seamus and Joanne got everything just perfect. All our guests had a wonderful day. I can’t recommend you both enough!! Thank you. Kelley and Thomas Clarke

I had my wedding recently at the Westport Woods Hotel. Not only is the hotel stunningly beautiful, its staff are amazing. Seamus, Joanne and staff go above and beyond for you! Anything I needed Seamus was there for me day or night, helping or giving advice . He is an incredible wedding coordinator and very professional in everything he does. Planning a wedding can be very stressful at time and without his help I would have being lost.

My wife I enjoyed our wedding in this Hotel in July 2017. There were several reasons initially why we chose this venue for our wedding (1) the location is ideally situated for travelling guests, close to town yet outside of the hustle and bustle of Westport traffic (2) The scenery and surrounding grounds of this hotel are idyllic for strolling round and capturing those photo moments. The perfect setting on a warm sunny day (3) The family friendly amenities on offer are second to none. Perfect for travelling families to keep young children entertained (4) The wedding venue was bright, well decorated and flexible to cater for small and large crowds, at the time we did not have in mind the number who would be attending (4) The staff and in particular Seamus was very easy going and cooperative from the get go In hindsight, we are glad me made the call when we did to go with this hotel. My wife and I could not have wished or planned for a better day. From the very first moment either by email or by phone Seamus and the crew responded and looked after our every request. They were great for putting our mind at ease and assuring us that everything was at hand and being dealt with. I’m sure the staff here have dealt with many weddings in their time yet they handled ours like we were the first through their doors. On the day the service was second to none, so good in fact that at times you would not notice the staff there yet everyone’s needs were being promptly looked after. The food severed on the day was delicious and consistent for the Bride and Groom as it was to the very last guest served, there was not a hungry soul to be found that evening. In the last 4 months since our wedding I still have heard nothing but positive feedback from the guests who were in attendance. A few wedding veterans amongst guests have even gone on to say “it was the best wedding they were at”

Hi Joanne and Team Apologies this message is so long getting to you. Myself and Adam would like to thank you all for making our day so special at The Wesport Woods Hotel. Our day was everything we hoped for and more and all of our guests also enjoyed the day. The grounds are absolutely beautiful we got some lovely photos and the function room is perfect with everything you need in the one spot. The food was amazing and there was plenty of it, all of our guests commented on how nice the food was. The decore in the function room is also beautiful and can't be faulted. Our only disappointment was that the day went to quickly, we wish we could do it all over again. We didn't take up the offer of a BBQ the second day as we had plans for a party at home but if we were to do it again we would definitely opt for this as we felt very at home here. We would not hesitate recommending this hotel for your special day. Thank you again to Joanne and all the staff at The Wesport Woods Hotel. Samantha and Adam Griffiths

We had our wedding here on the 24/2/17 was amazing everything was perfect food was lovely staff were amazing they were brilliant help to all our planning everything we need they were on hand and foot Everybody raved about how well the place looked and the function room is fab .. also has big residence bar..
