We enjoyed every second

We knew how stressful planning a wedding could be and the red lion hotel took care of that. They were very organised and understanding of what we wanted to make our day special. They took care of everything so we could enjoy every second.

Beautiful venue and amazing staff

Honestly the Red Lion Hotel was amazing. I added the décor package; it was simply beautiful. The ceremony room was stunning! We stayed in the Seamstress Room, I have never stayed in such an amazingly beautiful room. We want to book in again to stay for our anniversary. I want to mention how professional and attentive Radina was. Fantastic team and lovely people. Thank you for the best day, it was better than we imagined.Our guests also said how relaxed and lovely the day was.
