Best day ever!!!

We chose Grosvenor pulford as our wedding venue as it was so pretty and also close to a church. I spoke to Emma the wedding coordinator throughout the whole 2 years of planning the wedding and she was always happy to help and get me any information that I needed. The rest of the staff were amazing too. We had Alastair and Rose helping on the wedding day, they were an amazing team and made sure everything ran smoothly. Family and friends still talk about how amazing our wedding was 6 weeks later. Couldn’t of asked for a better day or a better venue.

Superb location and team

Loved the venue from the minute I saw it.

Everything was so relaxed and the team worked tremendously hard all day / evening to ensure nothing went wayward!

Emma our coordinator was fabulous, such an easy process, nothing was too much trouble. Anything we wanted she made it work.

Rooms and food also fantastic.

Absolutely amazing day, amazing venue and staff

I can’t even begin to describe just how brilliant the team at the Grosvenor Pulford are. I’m absolutely gutted our day is over. The venue, food, drinks, staff, everything was absolutely perfect. Book, book, book. As someone who works within civil registration and attends lots of weddings, I have no hesitation in recommending this venue. We have been back a few times in the 6 weeks we’ve been married!!

Exquisite wedding venue with professionalism to match

We had our wonderful civil ceremony and wedding afternoon tea at the exquisite Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa on Monday 3rd October 2022. From the first contact we could feel the professionalism in Emma, our wedding coordinator. She was always super responsive to any questions or special requests that we had. On the day, everything ran like clockwork and better than we had imagined. Additionally, we felt that the Grosvenor Pulford offered excellent value for money, when compared with other options we looked at in Chester. We also chose to go with 3 of their official wedding partners for Magician, Decorations and Photography and were delighted with all of them.

Amazing

Emma Simon, our Wedding coordinator was fantastic. She answered any questions I had and went above and beyond. Ben and Alastair greeted us on the day and made the day itself run so smoothly. The whole process from start to finish was amazing. All members of staff went above and beyond to make our day special; everything was taken care of so we could sit back and enjoy our day. Our day was just how we imagined it to be.... and more!

Wedding 18 April 2019

We chose the Grosvenor Pulford for our wedding venue as we thought it was ideal. Unfortunately the staff were not. Prior to the wedding, coordinators advised nothing would be a problem, or too much trouble, however the day before the wedding (quite a number of rooms were booked for bride, family and friends) we were not even met by a coordinator even after asking at reception - everything seemed too much trouble and the morning of our special day staff were evasive, unhelpful, disorganised and dismissive. A catalogue of events caused stress and anxiety. A wedding schedule was completed but not completely adhered to which resulted in the middle tier of our cake having to be binned. Emails were sent and met with staff - to raise our concerns - this was to be looked into, no explanation was giving. A letter was sent to the owner who also gave no explanation and totally disregarded the situation regarding the cake. The letter also stated that now we have got it off our chest she hoped that our negative experience would not deter us from returning to the hotel. This is unsatisfactory and totally unacceptable especially for a hotel that was supposed to have such high standards.

Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa's reply:

We have been involved in an ongoing dialogue with you regarding your concerns since the date of your wedding in mid-April.

Since that date, members of our wedding team met with you in person to discuss your concerns in detail. After this meeting we received an email from you in which you expressed appreciation for the opportunity to meet with them and openly and honestly air your concerns face to face.

At this point we believed the matter to be closed, but you then sent a letter of complaint to the hotel owners repeating your concerns, all of which we believe we thoroughly addressed in the previous meeting. The owner responded to your letter of complaint, clearly reiterating our position.

Now you have chosen to begin leaving negative reviews on the internet regarding your experience, which we acknowledge you are completely within your right to do. That said, we are completely within our right to respond to these reviews and counter with our point of view.

The Grosvenor Pulford Hotel & Spa is proud to have a thoroughly experienced, dedicated and hardworking wedding team who put countless hours into working with couples from the moment they first visit, to the end of their wedding day. We successfully organise and manage hundreds of happy ceremonies and celebrations each and every year, and have a very long list of positive testimonials supporting this.

Due to fact we run so many weddings each year, we have robust, proven procedures in place to ensure ceremonies take place calmly and as planned.

For clarity, our wedding coordinator is responsible for handling everything up to the eve of your wedding, before handing over to the master of ceremonies on the day itself, which would've been discussed in one of the meetings you had with the team ahead of the wedding.

We freely admit that like all businesses errors do on occasion occur. When they happen our committed team work quickly to resolve them to the very best of our abilities so circumstances can move forward in a positive fashion.

We don't believe the circumstances that are presented here portray an accurate or fair commentary of the the events of the day, the amount of hard work that went into the preparation of the event from our staff both in the run up to or during the wedding, or the events that have followed.

At this point we remain unclear what exactly you believe we should do to remedy your concerns, because as we mentioned earlier, you indicated in your subsequent meeting and emails to the team that they had been dealt with to your satisfaction.

Everything worked like clockwork

Everything worked like clockwork and we were very impressed with every aspect of the service provided. The lady working for Marius on Saturday evening was particularly attentive and greatly added to the success of the more important aspects of the event. The food was delicious too. We were very impressed with the quality of the bedrooms and the complimentary gifts provided with them. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. The staff at reception were also friendly and helpful and so were the kitchen staff when storing and cutting the cake. We will certainly come back to The Grosvenor soon for lunch as it will always be a hotel with a special place in our hearts.

Would love to do it all again!

Emma Simon; we want to say a massive thank you for all of your help over the last couple of years; you've been absolutely amazing. Cannot thank you enough. The staff on the day were fabulous too especially the man in charge; he was brilliant and on top of everything. We had an amazing day and can't believe it's all over with. Would love to do it all again.
