It was an absolute pleasure having you plan our wedding, it was everything we expected and more. We couldn’t have asked for a better team to look after us. This is a day we will always remember and that is down to you. Thank you so much for exceeding our expectations and going above and beyond. ❤️

Since our first meeting you have listened to what we wanted and provided advice and support to ensure everything was organised as we wanted it. And on the day Cas was great at making sure everything ran smoothly and everyone was where they needed to be. The room looked lovely and everyone enjoyed the day. Thank you so much. Kind regards, Irene & Pip

The most perfect wedding!
We had our wedding here a few days ago, the hotel - Rio and Caz especially - were brilliant throughout the planning the wedding and up to and on the day. The venue is beautiful and the day was everything we could have asked for. Anything we needed, they were all right on it. Highly recommend!

Mr. & Mrs. Cater
From myself and my new husband, we want to thank Solent Hotel so so much for everything they have done for us and our wedding. We had the most magical day and honestly could not have asked for more! The hotel itself looked absolutely amazing and so much better than we could have imagined! The wedding venue/room looked stunning at every part of the day, everyone who was involved in making our room look lovely, done an amazing job and we couldn’t have asked for more. We honestly was so happy with how’s things went and so grateful to Rio and Caz for how smoothly the day went too. We loved every second of it and we can’t wait to come back to visit Solent again. You have honestly given us the best experience at planning a wedding at no point have we felt stressed or worried as I've heard some people say planning a wedding. You made sure every single detail we wanted was done and took so much on yourself to save us the worry. I honestly could not recommend having a wedding at Solent hotel more. You truly are amazing and we will treasure the memories you helped make forever!
