Nestled along the scenic banks of the River Slaney in Enniscorthy, Co. Wexford, the four-star Riverside Park Hotel continues to solidify its reputation as a premier wedding destination. For couples seeking a blend of natural beauty, refined service, and modern luxury, the hotel is now entering its most exciting chapter yet with a major ballroom transformation set for 2027.
A Legacy of Excellence
The Riverside Park Hotel has long been a favorite for Wexford weddings, known for its versatile Hilton Edwards Suite which can cater for up to 350 guests. The venue is fully registered for civil ceremonies and humanist blessings, allowing couples to say “I do” against the backdrop of the River Slaney.
The hotel’s reputation is backed by glowing testimonials from couples who have celebrated there:
- On the Planning Experience: One couple noted that the wedding team “pulled out all the stops,” making the process feel personalized and stress-free despite hosting many events.
- On the Culinary Offering: The food is a frequent highlight, with guests often remarking on the “incredible” quality and “generous portions” served throughout the day.
- On the Atmosphere: Another review described the day as “magical and special,” noting that the staff made the bridal party feel “like royalty” from the moment they arrived.
The 2027 Vision: Elevating the Experience
While the current offerings are highly regarded, the hotel is set to unveil a significant expansion in early 2027 that will redefine the wedding experience in the South East.
Key features of the upcoming redevelopment include:
A Spectacular Ballroom Redesign: The extended ballroom will undergo a complete transformation to create one of the region’s most romantic and impressive settings.
Exclusive New Arrivals Suite: Designed specifically for wedding receptions, this sophisticated space will offer a private, intimate area for couples and their guests to gather.
Panoramic Riverside Views: The new pre-reception suite will feature floor-to-ceiling windows, providing breathtaking views of the River Slaney.
Enhanced Ambiance: With a focus on relaxed luxury, the expansion will include warm lighting and a private bar to set a perfect tone for the celebrations.
