Perfect Wedding Venue

Fantastic wedding venue and hotel. Staff are SO friendly and helpful and cannot do enough for you. Our wedding planner Katie went above and beyond for us to make sure everything was perfect, as did lots of others. Jodie was great on the day. Preston is super polite and professional. Nicole and Craig are assets to reception. Even Rama the General Manager is a lovely, friendly guy. On our wedding day everything was seamless, the food was amazing which is usually unheard of when catering for 120 day time guests! The evening buffet was perfect too. An all round great venue. Thank you so much!!

A few who said it was the best wedding theyve bee

I have to say a massive thank you. Saturday was amazing and we were blown away by the room, the food, the service, everything! I can’t thank you and the whole team enough. Throughout the build up you have been brilliant and so accommodating to my random requests, the odd allergies and last minute table swapping!

Please pass on our thanks to Preston too. He was fantastic. Throughout the day he made sure we were ok. We got so many comments from guests who said how brilliant the service was. Nothing went wrong! there were no stresses for me or Nathan and all our guests were happy. We even had a few who said it was the best wedding they’ve been to.

Special Day

Hello Abi and all the staff at Norton Grange,
We are writing to sincerely thank you for making our wedding day really special.
We couldn’t have asked for any more from the service you all provided to us and our guests.
Everyone had a wonderful time. Craig and his team made the event run so smoothly on the day; so please thank him and all the others involved for us.
So, including yourself who helped plan everything in advance, to the team on the day, please accept our gratitude for doing an excellent job.

Dream Wedding

"My husband and I chose the Mercure Norton Grange to host our wedding ceremony and reception afterwards. The day went like a dream - the manager in charge of our day, Preston, made sure everything ran smoothly. Joanne, our wedding planner, was incredibly helpful in planning our day in the weeks and months beforehand. Everything went to plan and we and our guests had a day to treasure. All the serving staff were exceptionally professional, and the venue itself was perfect - intimate and unique. The food at our wedding breakfast was also of an excellent standard. I wouldn't hesitate to tell anyone to have the Norton Grange as the venue for their dream wedding!"

Fantastic Service

Absolutely fantastic service from start to finish. The staff in general couldn't do enough for us. Preston/Joanne the wedding planners exceeded our expectation from the day we booked up until our big day. The food was excellent and Dan the chef left it in our hands about any tweaks that needed to be made to the menu.

Cannot thank them enough for making our special day even better.

Absolutely Amazing

I can't thank preston/joanne our wedding planner and manager for the most perfect wedding reception we had. Joanne was our wedding planner and was absolutley amazing in every way.
Preston then took over for our final meeting and was there for us on our day.
The attention to detail and to us on our day was perfect.
The rest of the hotel staff were brilliant.
They made such a good impression that my daughter is also planning on having her wedding reception at the norton grange in 2 years time.
Once again i would like to say a big thank you for an amazing day.

Thank You

Thank you, our wedding was absolutely amazing.
Thank you for all your help and to Preston and all the staff who made the day run so smoothly, literally everything was done perfect!

Its hard to put into words but Ill try!

Our wedding at the Norton Grange was everything we could have dreamed of. The staff just went above and beyond to make sure everything was as we imagined, they could not have been more helpful. From the first look round the hotel to the actual event, we always felt like everything was under control and could put our trust in them.
The room (The Grange Restaurant) looked amazing and the views are spectacular. We have had so many compliments on the room and the grounds were brilliant for our photos.

Thank You

Thank you so much to both you and Preston and the rest of the hotel staff who made the day go without a hitch. We had such a great day and really enjoyed ourselves. Preston kept us both calm and made us feel at ease on the day. The rooms were expertly dressed and better than we expected. Thank you for catering for the videographers and also the guests that didn't like our chosen starter by replacing it with melon instead. Thank you also for making sure the guests knew where to go at what time.
The day was exactly what we wanted and more.

A Big Thank You.

I would like to say a very big thank you to the whole team at the hotel. We couldn't have hoped for anything better and everything went to plan - nothing was too much trouble and we felt like everybody really cared about the day.

I really appreciate the hard work and efforts that went into the day from everybody including yourself, we are truly thankful and will treasure the memories forever.

Brilliant trouble free wedding day

We cannot compliment this hotel and staff enough. Right from the start Joanne guided us through the planning, possible options and provided advice on potential suppliers for our big day. Joanne kept in touch at regular intervals on the build up suggesting little tweaks we could make and was so patient with us handling all our questions and requests without complaint.

On the day they took care of the cake delivery, flowers delivery and set the tables exactly how we wanted them. Preston and the staff worked tirelessly throughtout the day and evening ensuring everything went to plan and to time including three room set ups and a simply stunning hot and cold buffet for 93 guests

Preston and his team should be rewarded with medals for the work they put in that day & night, Nobody could fault the food or service, all of our guests had a brilliant day and night and much of that success was down to the team at the Hotel.There were no gripes as to the standard and cleanliness of the bedrooms from any of the guests & the bridal suite was lovely!

Simone on reception also deserves a medal for handling all the accomodation details without a fuss and maintining a friendly but professional approach with our guests.

Thank you Joanne, Simone, Preston & all the team you truly made our wedding day a huge success!

Thank You

Just want to send a massive thank you to you for all your hard work, help and support on Saturday. You were amazing and everything was perfect from start to finish. Couldn't have asked for anyone better to be on charge of the best day of our lives.

Just wanted you to know how much we appreciated everything and the staff were all brilliant and so helpful, I hope I wasn't too much of a pain. We've heard nothing but amazing feedback on the entire place, food & set up.

But think you need to take most of that credit and you really was fab.
