Arklow Bay Hotel

We had our wedding at the Arklow Bay Hotel in September, and we could not have wished for a better experience. From start to finish, everything was handled with exceptional care, professionalism, and genuine warmth.

A special thank you must go to our wedding coordinator, Tee Corkish, who was truly outstanding. She is the walking definition of a friendly professional. Despite organising our wedding on quite short notice, right in the middle of the busy wedding season, Tee ensured that everything was completed on time and without stress. No request ever seemed to be a problem. Her openness, calm presence, and reassuring communication made the entire process feel easy and enjoyable.

Tee also provided a list of trusted wedding vendors, which made our planning more focused and far less overwhelming. Many of our guests were so impressed with her professionalism that one even joked she’d choose Tee to organise her wedding if she ever got married again.

The hotel staff as a whole were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. We felt genuinely cared for throughout the entire experience. The function room looked fantastic on the day, and the wedding package itself offers excellent value, especially with the beautiful decorations included. The quality of service was superb.

The food was exquisite. We highly recommend the 12 Hour Pot Roasted Feather Blade of Irish Beef as it simply melts in the mouth. The hotel also catered seamlessly for several dietary requirements, including vegan options that received compliments too.

Although we couldn’t use the hotel’s recently purchased outdoor area for the ceremony due to the weather, it still provided the most beautiful backdrop for our photoshoot afterwards. It’s a stunning setting and a real asset for future weddings.

We also appreciated the menu tasting offered in advance, which helped us confirm our choices with confidence. Throughout the planning, Tee put me at ease, especially when the short timeline felt a little daunting. Thanks to her and the entire team, we were able to enjoy our day fully, feeling both important and pampered.

We had a wonderful wedding, made easy by the exceptional staff and service at the Arklow Bay Hotel. We received nothing but genuine compliments from our guests, and we would choose this venue again without a moment’s hesitation.

Highly recommended for anyone looking for a warm, professional, and memorable wedding experience that offers great value.

We had our wedding on the 6th September. From start to finish the service we received was amazing. All the planning went really smoothly with no stress. Arklow Bay took care of everything perfectly. The wedding co Ordinater Tee was brilliant and did an amazing job and made sure everything was as stress free as possible.
The day itself couldn’t have been more perfect- the whole day went without any issues and all on time and to plan.
Can’t recommend the hotel and staff enough. Value was also so good. We were very happy with everything

We had the pleasure that our wedding was at the stunning Arklow Hotel.
The team was always ready to help and provide answers to all our questions.
Planning our wedding couldn't have been better, with all the normal upside downs but everything great throughout the planning and the end.

The wedding day was as dreamed and more. Decoration details, the amazing views, gifts, organization...

As the couple, we personally enjoyed it to the fullest, as well as all our guests.
We got great messages saying that the wedding was amazing.
The food was one of the best parts, as it was utterly delicious.

The attention the team had with us and our families was lovely.

We are so grateful for making our special day to be the best.

The team from Tee the wedding corridinator to the front desk to the bar staff and floor staff they were all unbelievable. They were so helpful and couldn't have done enough for us. We had a fantastic day and couldn't have asked for better.

Excellent food, service, organisation & accommodation. We loved it all.

My husband and I got married in the Arklow Bay on October 11th 2024. From start to finish we cannot fault the Arklow bay. We were greeted by the events manager back in October 2022 to discuss the Arklow Bay as a possible venue. All of our questions were answered, we were given a tour of the hotel and shown so many different options for the day. When we saw the decor and set up, we both fell in love with the venue and knew we couldn’t have our dream wedding anywhere else. We worked closely with Tee the wedding Co ordinator and she was amazing. She answered all of our emails and texts in a timely manner, she took all of the stress off us and really presented our day beautifully. All of our guests were very impressed with the hotel, particularly the menu and the service from the staff. Every guests was very well looked after and all of the staff were amazing.
I cannot recommend the Arklow Bay Hotel enough for a wedding!

We booked our wedding a mere 10weeks before our big day and Tee and all the team were incredibly helpful. We dived into it with no real experience or knowledge of what to do or expect as we got married at short notice due to a family members ill health. Tee and all the team were so professional yet sensitive and understanding, nothing was any bother and when I was stressed they put my mind at ease. The day was everything we dreamed of and more, and the food, service, rooms, value, staff, everything was next level. Our guests still talk about our special day and how incredible the food and the day in general was.

We had the most incredible experience having our wedding and Day 2 celebrations at the Arklow Bay Hotel. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect and stress-free. Our guests are still raving about the amazing food and the outdoor drinks reception, which created such a lovely and relaxed atmosphere.

Tee, our wedding coordinator, and Anna were simply outstanding. Every email we sent was responded to so quickly, and our meetings were always productive and reassuring. They ensured every detail was looked after, leaving us free to enjoy the entire process.

On the day, Leona went above and beyond to take care of us, serving food and drinks with such warmth and professionalism. The wedding suite was stunning, and the personalised gift they left for us was a thoughtful keepsake that we will treasure forever.

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to make our wedding so special. If we could relive the day, we’d do it in a heartbeat! A huge thank you to everyone at the Arklow Bay Hotel for making our dream wedding a reality.

I personally found the process of planning with the bay very easy, tee was brilliant and so helpful throughout this time. However, as you can imagine a lot of my time and money went into our wedding and I felt that on the day we just did not get the service that we should have.
Service: on the morning of your wedding day you expect to have someone there from early morning who checks in, makes sure the day is running smoothly and just be at hand to the bridal party… I did not have any of that, instead I was running around the morning of my wedding to try help suppliers as there was apparently nobody there. When I tried to discuss my concerns with reception I was told there isn’t going to be anyone in until 10.30 and 12 o clock! That is just not acceptable, there should have been someone there from 8 that morning to assist with the wedding. I was to decide on the morning of the wedding if it was going ahead outdoors or indoors and then they would be back and forth with the decor company….. nobody was there ? After the wedding I was told there actually was a manager there from early morning.. who never once came near the bridal party?
Table planning: went out the window, my tables were completely wrong, I had my family sitting at the back of the room. I spent weeks as every couple nearly does trying to get the tables right, as most weddings your immediate family sits in front of the bridal table…. Mine were at the back of the room. By the time I had noticed when I sat down for dinner it was too late to do anything. I can’t understand why or how this went wrong but this is one thing that did really affect my day… it was a matter of following a plan that was set out and putting a number on a table?
Decor: apparently some of my decor “they couldn’t find” when I went to collect my decor after the wedding I found straight away. I spent a lot of money on having a photo done up of my family, that was to be signed from guests so we could hang it up at home. It was A2 so quite large, apparently couldn’t find it.
I spent money on getting personalised tags done for sparklers for there to be a photo taken with all our guests, with a sign of time it would take place… they couldn’t be found either apparently so iv no sparklers photographed. More money wasted…. But magically they appeared near the end of the night.
As part of our ceremony, our sand kit was misplaced… thankfully found before hand but yet another issue.
Staff service: apart from having no one there the morning of the wedding for the bridal party, there was so many issues that happened on the day.
The electricity they couldn’t get working for our singers so we were lucky enough to get that going before the bridal car arrived for me to walk down the aisle.
The microphone during reception kept going… not one staff member to assist only for our best man to have to get up to try sort.
No one to direct guests to outdoor ceremony which meant I was delayed in going up to the ceremony. I had to ring the front desk at 1.45 to tell them to get the people up to the ceremony… my wedding was to start at 1.30.
Bridal suite… disaster… my wedding was at 1.30… I was let in at 5 past 1 to get into my dress… try get photos an do a reveal with my dad. I was so rushed an panicked.. I actually got upset in this room as to how the morning was going. My photographer was running around trying to find my flowers and any other jobs he could help with.


The list really goes on.

All in all, myself, husband and guests had a ball and although I knew of all these issues my guests didn’t (thankfully).
I felt let down, money time and effort was wasted and to be honest if I was to be able to go back and change my the location for my wedding I would… which is upsetting. We had all of our wedding paid for well in time, we expected the service we paid for… to which we did not get.

Zoe & Peter

Everything went smoothly from start to finish. I rang the hotel to ask about having our wedding reception there and was fortunate enough to learn that there was a small wedding showcase that week ( but without the suppliers). We went down and spoke to Anna and Sinead. (Anna has since left but the reigns were ably taken up by Tee).
We went through the options and the hotel came back with a customised package. We wanted a horse and carriage and the Hotel were able to give us a contact who we ended up booking. They also were able to give a referral to a local photographer who did an excellent job.
The tasting menu was delicious and the hotel accommodated the small changes that we requested for the Wedding reception. They also accommodated a change of reception venue the week of the wedding.
(Originally both the marriage and reception was to be in the Asgard suite but we would not have had enough room for the line dancing I had organised so the reception was switched to the Bay Suite).
We were able to hand all our gifts to reception who stored them safely for us saving us several trips to our room.

Everything was perfect on the day including the weather.

We got married 5th July and we were absolutely astounded at the quality and service the Arklow Bay provided. Tee the wedding co ordinator was extremely professional and the team on the day looked after us so well. Photos taken within the beautiful surroundings. We would highly recommend the Arklow Bay to all potential wedded couples.

Tee the co ordinator was above and beyond her excitment for us was so sweet and she made the day run so smoothly, she used our decorations and made the room look more then i expected the food was just to die for and the staff extremly helful, our rooms were beautiful and our 2 girls excitment about the room was something else beautuful location and all around made our day exaxtly what we wanted

We recently got married in the Arklow Bay hotel and we couldn't of asked for a better venue.

The staff were all amazing and accommodating.

Tee our wedding coordinator was amazing we told her exactly what we wanted and she delivered on it.

All our guest were raving about the food especially the risotto.

The special touches and the way all the rooms were decorated I couldn't of imagined anything better and the kids had an area for themselves and loved it.

I wanted a stress free day where I didn't have to worry about a thing and that is what I got, once I handed everything over I knew it was in good hands.

Would highly recommend the Arklow bay for any wedding

I couldn't fault the arklow bay hotel the staff where amazing so helpful .the food was just perfect and they made my daughters wedding reception even more perfect.

The coordinators were just incredible. Dante kept in contact for the whole year running up to the wedding. Any changes were zero issue and she handled everything with upmost professionalism. We even had an issue with a supplier and Dante saved the day for us and found a new supplier last minute. The service was amazing on the day. The food was amazing all piping hot and our guests raved about the quality of the food. The bar staff were fun and super friendly ! Overall they made our day so perfect I just couldn't have wished for better! Dante truly is a credit to the Bay Hotel.

I couldn't recommend the Arklow Bay highly enough from start to finish our wedding was amazing. Dante and all the staff at the arklow Bay where brilliant.

Everything was amazing. I stayed the night before which meant the morning was so relaxed. The gm checked in with my during breakfast as we hoping for an outdoor ceremony but the weather didn't play ball. Other than that the day ran so smoothly, the guests were very impressed by the food and how relaxed we were. The staff went above and beyond to make sure we were happy at all times throughout the day. Would highly recommend the Arklow Bay Hotel and would easily do it all again

We had an amazing wedding celebration at the Arklow Bay Hotel at the end of September 2021 and it was incredible!. Everyone loved it!! The staff, specially Eimear our wedding coordinator, organised everything so well that everything went smoothly and perfectly. We were so blessed that the weather was gorgeous and we managed to have our drinks reception outside at the garden which had enough space for everyone to sit and enjoy the sun while having some drinks and listening to music.
Food and decoration were also amazing. The bridal suite was lovely and beautiful to get some photoshooting before the ceremony.
I could not recommend enough this hotel for a wedding or event celebration, you'll definitely be in good hands!

We had the most amazing wedding day in the Arklow Bay on 23rd September 21. Eimear was our wedding organiser and from the very get go she was so so amazing, I didn't have to worry about a thing and she had everything planned to perfection . We had planned a church wedding however last minute we decided on civil ceremony in the Arklow Bay and they were so accommodating and made it all just so easy! They arranged all the decorations for ceremony room and it was genuinely beautiful. We were also lucky with weather and had an outside reception and it was gorgeous. Every member of staff were good fun and very helpful. Couldn't recommend the venue enough, anything we asked was no problem and they go above and beyond.

we had our wedding day in the arklow Bay and from start to finish it was amazing...the staff couldn't of been more helpful to make our day so special..and eimer our wedding organiser was fantastic she went well over and beyond for us; thank you to all and we would highly recommend the hotel for your special day.

The Arklow Bay Hotel- the perfect wedding venue. We had our wedding here& I can honestly say, it was the perfect venue. From the first viewing, we felt so welcome& comfortable& knew straight away this was our perfect wedding venue. The hotel is simply stunning& so are the surrounding areas. The gardens, the lake& the sea make for breathtaking photo backgrounds. The graffiti area& the industrial background provide a more alternative atmosphere, which was perfect for us. The staff in the Arklow Bay Hotel were always so friendly, helpful& could not have been nicer. Everybody made sure we had the best weekend ever. Eimear, the hotel's wedding coordinator was such a pleasure to deal with& having around on the wedding day. She answered all of our questions& was as accommodating as possible with any requests. Eimear listened to all of our ideas& showed a genuine interest in what we wanted which translated to the perfect d?cor& atmosphere on the day. Thanks to Eimear we had the most magical day. All I can say about the food is that everything was amazing. The portions were generous& every single guest was full& more than happy, what more could you asked for. We couldn't have picked a better venue for our ceremony& can't wait to come back for our wedding party in the Arklow Bay Hotel next year. Thanks so much

we got married in the Arklow Bay on 28th of December 2020 and I can honestly say we had the best day ever the management, staff and Eimear the wedding coordinator couldn't have treated us any better than they did 100% we would recommend the Arklow Bay for any occasion a beautiful hotel and we cannot wait to pay another visit to the hotel many thanks Pauline and Billy larkin

Getting married, as everybody knows, involves a lot of planning and preparation. Organising a wedding mid ? pandemic added much uncertainty and nervousness too. But for Andrew and I, choosing the Arklow Bay Hotel for our reception was the best decision. From our first encounter with the wedding co ? ordinator, Eimear, and her team, we were made to feel at ease straight away. They listened to all our ideas and accommodated everything we asked for. We had the complete wedding experience, from start to finish, despite the restrictions. The surroundings are just beautiful too and this made for some fabulous photos. The day passed without a hitch and that was all down to Eimear and the team. We were treated like a King and Queen for the day. We would highly recommend the Arklow Bay Hotel for fabulous service, food and an unforgettable wedding experience.

We got married 20/10/20 in the Arklow Bay Hotel and we couldn't have wished for a better day! Most of our wedding planning took place under various Covid-19 restrictions, and the hotel and staff could not have been more accommodating and flexible. We were originally due to marry on 22/10/20, but ultimately moved the big day to the 20th on just a few hours notice before further restrictions were imposed! This wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for the staff of the Arklow Bay Hotel! Eimear was amazing, she had staff called in and had everything organised right away! She even came in to arrange everything even though she was on annual leave.

The venue was beautifully decorated, the staff were outstanding, the food was delicious, and the atmosphere was unparalleled. Nowhere else could have competed with the day we experienced.

Planning a wedding can be a stressful time (especially during a pandemic), but the Arklow Bay Hotel couldn't have made things any easier for us.

We couldn't speak more highly of the hotel itself and their staff. Absolutely exceptional from start to finish! Anything we asked for was fulfilled, no task was too great or small. We would 100% recommend the Arklow Bay Hotel, they will take care of you.

We had settled on settling our date for our wedding the 22nd of July 2021 after putting it off for years, so let's go hunting for a venue.

We had viewed about 6 different venues before we went to visit the Arklow bay hotel, upon arrival we both met Dick the General manager who made us both feel welcomed and brought us into the wedding show case, it was very well layed out. The wedding coordinator Eimear was talking with another couple when we arrived so Dick proceeded to talk with us about themes and colours for our big day, dates etc even went as far as to change the lighting in the room to Teal which is and was Elizabeth's ideal wedding colour.

He brought us around the hotel and showed us the bridal suite, indoor and outdoor venue, for where the weddings are held if the weather allows for it which we had planned for being the 22nd of July 2021.

Dick showed us the wedding menu's available to us and the packages on offer, we wanted as little hassle as possible and the more we could deligate the better, we have 2 young kids and I'm a chef so the less we have to do the better, We went for the top package (I think) ????. Basically all we had to do was source dresses, suits and rings everything else was looked after by Eimear and the crew from the Arklow Bay.

So we booked the date and started the journey to the wedding we wanted and had planned in our head for years.

We had continued contact the whole way through the process and then boom Global pandemic, Covid-19 landed in Ireland late January and grew to be a bride and grooms worst nightmare, we were hearing of weddings having to be cancelled and postponed until further notice and we had started to panic then.

Around the middle of May we had Contin plated postponing the wedding as the Covid-19 cases where growing too fast that it looked as if we wouldn't get our big day on our 7th year anniversary of going out together.

Eimear was fantastic at first we taught we could get away with reducing the numbers to 50 instead of 100 guests and we hoped it would be enough that if restrictions we're still in place we could proceed but, that was not the case we there was a full level 5 restriction in affect, so we had to postpone until 22nd of July 2022.


In the end we were lucky enough that restrictions started to lift early June as cases dropped and the race was back on, after postponing the wedding by a year we got back in contact with Eimear to try go for our original date of the 22nd of July 2021, with 5 weeks to go to the big day it was going to be a push.

Eimear and the crew got everything back on track to go ahead with 2021 and we where laughing we could have 50 guest but we only ended up have 37 in total which was fantastic everything on the day in the hotel went off without a single problem.

We had originally planned on a outdoor wedding and the forecast was set to look good and in traditional Irish style the morning of the big day it rained ????, so we where forced to move it indoors which wasn't a problem at all the Staff got it all sorted in a matter of a few hours.

Our Room was beautifully decorated and very well Laid out that all the guests could be in full view of the top table and in turn we could see everyone of our guests, we obviously hoped we could have had more guests but unfortunately with the pandemic it just wasn't an option, we had friends and family stuck in Australia and China that couldn't get home for the big day unfortunately.


The food was fabulous, we had been very fussy about other venue's s due to the menus and food choices on offer as I am a chef and I also had a few chef friends on the guest lists, after our event in the hotel they gave us permission to sit out in the garden after the wedding and we light candles and about 15 of us sat there until early hours of the next morning, if ever there was a mental picture of a relaxed and comfortable wedding this was it and all thanks to Eimear, Dick and the rest of the Staff at the Arklow bay, Without them we would not of had the day we did.

We had our wedding in September and the team were amazing Eimear shauna and Dean from the very start to the day itself they went above and beyond nothing was too much trouble couldn't meet nicer people .Eimear the wedding coordinator was always on hand during the planning process taking any stress away .The food was fabulous all our guests commented how nice it was Jennifer who looked after the top table was always there if we needed anything brilliant at her job .The hotel was beautifully decorated and all the staff at the hotel really looked after our guests so well some have even rebooked to stay again. We would like to thank you all at the arklow bay for helping us have such an amazing day would highly recommend the hotel for weddings look forward to visiting again soon.

We couldn't recommend Eimear and the team highly enough.. from start to finish we felt as if our wedding was their priority. No request was too much and all of our personal touches were encouraged and met. Our wedding day was amazing. We felt so relaxed and enjoyed every minute ourselves. Feedback from all our our guests was hugely positive also. Bernie and Amanda.

We had our wedding at The Arklow Bay Hotel in August it was a fantastic day. The staff were amazing, food was amazing and the staff couldn't do anymore to help they were fantastic. Eimear the wedding coordinator was absolutely amazing, so helpful, couldn't meet a nicer girl. I would highly recommend The Arklow bay for a wedding, the gardens are gorgeous and the scenery, we got married down by the lake such a lovely day thanks to everyone!

Jim and I had our wedding in the Asgard Suite at the Arklow Bay on Aug 15th 2019. We live in London so the fact that we had Eimear on the end of the phone or email made everything so much easier for us in the planning stages. Our thoughts and ideas were listened to and taken on board but more importantly stuff we did not even think about was presented to us in a friendly and thoughtful manner. On the day itself everything was perfect. Our guests were blown away by the friendliness of all the hotel staff and by the quality of service particularly in the serving of the meal. The food was stunning and many of our guests do not live in Ireland so they were amazed at how much food there was! it was truly a perfect day due to the experience and dedication of all at the Arklow Bay.

Myself and my wife knew the moment we walked in tho the Arklow bay hotel that it was were we wanted to get married. The staff and team were wonderful. We had only booked our big day a month when we were informed that the wedding coordinator was changing and we had a new coordinator looking after us . This is where Eimear came in, we contacted her and she was so lovely. She made us feel like our big day was her main priority. She took us through a general run through of what most couples do on their day but let us know that they were very open to any creative ideas we had to make things a little different for our day. She really put our minds at rest and we knew it was definitely the right place for us.
We would like to thank you again for all of your help from the day we enquired about booking our wedding, until the moment it was time for bed on our day. Nothing was ever too much for ask for, and questions were always answered super fast. We couldn't have asked for a better day, or a better venue. The Arklow bay was the first venue that we viewed that made us feel at home , and we left with such excitement knowing that it was the venue that we wanted to get married at; It really did exceed all expectations
thank you so much for all your hard work in making our wedding the best day of our lives. It would not have been possible without you all.All of our guests had a wonderful time and couldn't praise the venue or the excellent food enough.
Mr and Mrs Redmond

From our first visit to the arklow bay we fell in love with it, to the food, the views, the lake and most importantly the staff we knew we would not want to get married anywhere else.

We booked our wedding 18 months before the wedding day and as any couple planning a wedding you want to be in contact with them, which was never an issue, no question was ever to big or small, the staff at the arklow bay always wanted to help any way they can.

Like any wedding guests at a wedding the main things they will always remember is the food and music and craic
The food was amazing, I still have guests 3 weeks later saying it to me about cleaning off their plates,

If you are lucky enough to have good weather get married at the lake, you will not regret it, an amazing experience it's truly beautiful down there the way the wedding is set up, how often can you get married outside in Ireland, the room in the hotel that ceremony would be in is also beautiful lit up with candles and flowers

The bay suite has been fully renovated this year and it's a gorgeous room for the reception,

All in all I would recommend the arklow bay for anyone getting married it truly is an amazing hotel, from Eimear, Musa, Shauna and Dean and all the staff in the arklow bay we couldn't be more grateful for all they did to make our day one to remember.

Well where do we begin?
The Bay was our number 1 choice for our big day from the second we got engaged. We had been to several weddings in the Bay in the past and all were superb.
From initial meetings to visiting wedding showcases we fell in love.
The day itself took our breath away and the very special attention to detail was flawless.
The whole hotel not just the wedding team deserve amazing praise.
Our families from far and not so far all said and I quote 'the best wedding we have been to in for forever'
We can't recommend the Arklow Bay Hotel enough, from the food and atmosphere to the hospitity and genuine care they show to their guests. First Class.

Thanks for everything,
Ross & Margurite Turner

The Best Vegan Wedding Ever!
Thank you so much for making our day so special and unforgettable. Your staff really went above and beyond to make sure we all had a brilliant day, and we really did! We especially want to thank your amazing sous chef Aine who created the perfect vegan menu for us. Everyone was raving about it, including all the meat eaters there (who didn't ?chicken? out)!
Another special thanks has to go to our wedding coordinator Eimear who was with us every step of the way, ensuring everything was planned perfectly. We barely had to think of anything; we just enjoyed every minute of the day.
We have gotten nothing but good feedback from our guests about your lovely staff who provided amazing service all day. Yet another special thanks has to go to your night porter who went so far as to drop some guests home in the early hours of the morning when they couldn't get a taxi.
There's nothing bad we can say about The Arklow Bay Hotel. The service we received was as good as any 5 star hotel. We would recommend The Arklow Bay to anyone, especially any vegan couples out there. You?ll be sure to have one of the best days of your life for a fantastic price!
- Jodi and Jade

We got married in the Arklow Bay Hotel on the 24th of May 2019 and it was my fairytale wedding I always dreamed of. The staff are nothing short of perfect and the wedding co-ordinator Eimear is the nicest woman we have ever dealt with and she deserves all the credit. She made everything so easy and took a lot of stress of myself and my now husband. Eimear imagined everything I could have ever dreamt of and made it a reality. We cannot talk any higher of the staff, the three nights that we stayed in the hotel were fantastic and that's down to the quality of the staff. The food is divine!! After three days we all needed to be rolled out of the hotel! The chefs prepared an award winning dish every time something came out of the kitchen, whether it was lunch, or even our wedding dinner, it was impeccable!! If anyone is unsure of where to look, the Bay definitely should be an option.

Special mention to Eimear, Shauna, Derek, Dick, Laura, Alice and Cian who made such an impact on our wedding and we will be forever grateful ??

We had our big day on the 11th of May. Couldnt thank the team enough. From early talks with eimear and her continuous help during what can be a very stressful journey, she was an absolute dream. To shauna and the team for the service that we received. Marguerite and Zara in the bay beauty rooms pulled out all the stops for my bridal party. We had the best day, as did our friends & family. We would highly recommend for future brides and grooms.

"If you look for a location of your big day , I cannot recommend enough The Arklow Bay hotel. You will be amazed with the service you will receive from your wedding planner. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is just fabulous, delicious deserts .... you will be living the dream..."- Zydrune

A special thanks to Eimear and Shauna and everyone at the Arklow bay hotel for giving us the best wedding anyone could have wished for ,so helpful and amazing people highly recommended.- Kieran

We got married in Arklow Bay hotel in April. We chose this hotel as we found it to be excellent value and the staff were so lovely when we went to their open day. Leading up to the big day our wedding coordinator Eimear couldn't have been nicer and made everything stress free for us. As we got married in the hotel itself, we didn't even need to worry about flowers or church decorations etc as the hotel organised all of this for us as part of our package. We were able to have our drinks reception outside which our guests loved as the hotel has beautiful grounds and is only a stone's throw from the beach. The actual reception itself was wonderful. The room was stunning and all of our guests raved about the food and how friendly the staff were. I would highly recommend Arklow Bay to any couple looking for a wedding venue...Thanks so much to all the staff who went out of their way to make our day so special it was greatly appreciated!!

Lovely venue and ceremony room

Wonderful service from start to finish, Orla our coordinator was brilliant and Marguerite from the Bay Beauty rooms was amazing. The couldn't do enough for us.

We had absolutely no faults with the arklow Bay Hotel. It was an amazing venue. We had family over from London and Scotland so the hotel gave us extra rooms at the discounted price. They accommodated to all our needs in the most professional way. They really did go above and beyond for us which made our day even more special.
