A huge huge thank you to all the staff at the Stanwell house hotel for making our wedding day the best day of our lives. The whole day went without a single hitch. Lucie you were absolutely amazing and always one step ahead.

So many of the guests commented on what a brilliant job you all did.
Thank you Stanwell house hotel for creating our dream wedding!!

Sorry for the delay in writing, we have just returned from our honeymoon in the Maldives but, myself and Gareth just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you and all at Stanwell House for helping us with our amazing Wedding.

My conversations, numerous emails and minor panics to Annette leading up to the big day were always dealt with quickly, professionally and left me knowing that our Wedding would be exactly as we had planned.

Lucy (who has been a star from our first stay at Stanwell House 2 years ago, just after Gareth had finished Chemo) was brilliant from the moment we all arrived on the Saturday. Thank you Lucy!

And finally to Anita who we feel on the day went over and above her role. She was absolutely amazing! From sorting out the Cheese wedding cake, helping with decorations, to helping our best man with his Laptop for his speech, nothing was too much trouble. Anita excels in all she does, she was brilliant. Thank you Anita from myself and Gareth, you helped make our day run so smoothly and make it very special. Good luck for your Wedding next year, we wish you the best of luck.

We will be coming down to see you all soon, I need to collect my cheese board at some point!

Thank you again.

To all the staff at Stanwell House Hotel, thank you for making our wedding reception perfect. Your attention to detail, kindness and brilliant guest service made everyone feel incredibly welcome and relaxed. The canapés and wedding breakfast was amazing and we have received so many compliments from our guests saying they thoroughly enjoyed the reception. You went beyond our expectations and delivered a first class wedding reception for us. Thank you once again. Rob and Paula

I've finally managed to sort out some pictures for you. Feel free to pick all or any from these that you like or if they aren't what you were hoping for, please let me know and I'll have another look.

As regards our experience on the day, it genuinely could not have been more perfect day. The whole team were so attentive and accommodating, from the kitchen guys assembling our cake to you fixing on the button holes after the ceremony. I would never have guessed that it was Christopher's first turn at being in charge, he made it look effortless and really took the strain away from us. We were able to relax and enjoy every part of our day, which was so important.

All our things were moved from the preparation room to the wedding suite without us having to ask, which was great. The staff welcomed all our guests and helped everyone to feel relaxed. The hotel had so many perfect places for photographs and it was so much fun exploring them all, both before the day and after the ceremony.

We also received so many compliments on the wedding breakfast - a friend of mine told me that it was the best food she has ever had at a wedding! One extremely pregnant guest asked for her steak to be cooked a little more and rather than just doing that, the kitchen team cooked her an entirely fresh meal. Things like that really made us feel that everything mattered to you as much as to us.

I would also like to thanks Annette for patiently dealing with all my emails in the lead up, even as they got a little more fraught towards the end!

I think I'm going on a little bit too long now, but I really cannot stress just how special you made our day. I want to do it again!

Thank you all so much

We were married at Stanwell House in July. From the first time we visited in autumn we were made to feel extremely welcome, we subsequently visited a few times before committing to having our wedding there.

Once agreed and signed up, everything was very smooth in the preparation - lots of communication and someone was always around to promptly answer emails or the phone. When we needed to move our wedding date they were incredibly accommodating and left us with no doubts that we had chosen the right venue for us.
On the day itself they completely surpassed themselves. The sun shone so we had the ceremony outside, a fabulous location.

A special mention to Thierry, Annette, Anna and Pedro - they worked tirelessly before and during our day. There are countless others whose names I sadly don\'t know but a clear team effort and nothing was left to chance. Exactly what you want which meant me and my wife could relax and enjoy our ceremony and the company of our guests.

As a venue it offers something different in the lovely town of Lymington - a lot of the other New Forest venues seemed a little bit like \'wedding factories\' whereas the personal touch was evident throughout at Stanwell. The value for money was fantastic and meant we could have the elegant and stylish day that we wanted without breaking the bank.

Overall it\'s an absolute gem of a place, great atmosphere, staff, rooms, food and location. What more do you need?
