Clonmel Park Hotel

Clonmel Park HotelA lot of couples have asked me to review more hotels along my travels as an award winning wedding videographer covering Tipperary, Kilkenny, Waterford and Carlow, so this week it’s  the turn of the Clonmel Park Hotel.  I have filmed lots of weddings in this hotel in Clonmel, and over the years have found it to be a fantastic hotel for weddings.  I see upon arriving at the hotel that the red carpet is always at hand – it’s not rolled out too early so as to keep it clean, but when the bridal car arrives it’s all hands on deck and out goes the carpet nice and fresh and clean.

The couple are greeted with a champagne reception on arrival and of course some fresh strawberries.  I have always found the staff very friendly, polite and extremely helpful to all, including myself as a videographer in the course of my evenings work there.

The couple are taken into the function room to see and give their approval of the seating and the details that have been placed on tables etc. Then it’s time for the photographer to set up the mock cutting of the cake – this is done at this time so that it’s a controlled and relaxed shoot. When this is done the couple are brought into the foyer of the hotel or the room that has been reserved for the couple and their guests to enjoy some much needed tea, coffee, and the fabulous food. I have always noticed there is no shortage of food at this time!

Another great hotel for the calling on time for dinner, this something some hotels slip on! but the Clonmel Park Hotel.  is ahead on this.

Another great hotel for calling guests in good time for dinner – this is something some hotels slip up on but the Clonmel Park Hotel is on the ball here!

Over the years and having been part of many weddings in the Clonmel Park Hotel I have not heard of an unsatisfied guest at  a wedding there.  From what I see on the day (and we wedding videographers don’t miss much!)  the service is fast and friendly, and I must say I always find there to be a very good turn round of the function room for the nights entertainment.  And any couple that I have worked with at the Clonmel Park Hotel have been entirely satisfied with their experience there – and isn’t that the most important thing!
