Maeve & Shane, March 2017    

We had our wedding reception in Moyvalley Hotel with 140 guests in March 2017, and honestly could not have hoped for a more perfect day. From the first day we met Orla, our wedding coordinator, we felt completely at ease and confident that she would do everything she could to help us organise our wedding day. She listened to our ideas and made suggestions to add to the laid back, fun day she knew we wanted. The Wedding day was brilliant and Orla made sure we had absolutely nothing to think about except enjoying our day with all our friends and family. We started with our drinks reception in the beautiful Balyna house, followed by dinner and dancing in the reception room in the main hotel, and then back to the cellar bar in Balyna house for the residents bar. Our guests were delighted with the service provided by all the staff and spoke about how much they enjoyed the day. The food from beginning to end was delicious and of an extremely high standard. The hotel rooms were extremely comfortable and excellent value for our guests, with the option of staying in the houses right beside the hotel being great for groups. The bridal suite in Balyna house was pure luxury and a lovely treat. Overall we cannot recommend Moyvalley Hotel highly enough as a wedding venue.

Lisa Marie & John, September 2017

We had our wedding here on the 9th of September 2017. We remember driving around most of louth and Meath looking at venues all day and none took our fancy until we drove in the gates of moyvalley. The minute I turned in and started driving up the avenue I knew thus was going to be were our wedding reception would be and I wasn't wrong. We met the wedding coordinator who from the first word out of the her mouth was polite and welcoming and just gave us the run of the hotel and house to look around. We both agreed that this would be the venue and paid a small deposit which wasn't crippling. From the moment we left the hotel that day we had not one thing to worry about we were assigned orla as the planner and we couldn't have got a better person if we tried she was outstanding and answered every question we had at any time of the day and assured us that it would be a day to remember and guess what she wasn't wrong. We arrived at 3.30 on the wedding day to be greeted by friendly staff who went completely out of there way to make sure everything was perfect. Later in the evening we went to the reception room were again orla was there to make sure everyone was having fun. Onto the room which was decorated just as we asked for no corners cut. The meal then was just perfect and the amount of people commenting on it the next day and still today is unbelievable and that is a credit to all the kitchen staff no one was left wanting that night. After the meal and evening entertainment we moved onto the residents bar were we were allowed basically take over until the early hours. I honestly can't say anything bad about this hotel or the staff or the food or the rooms i could go on but I'll only bore you. So my honest advice is if you plan on getting married and want it to be a day you will talk about in 20+ years head straight to moyvalley ask for orla and sit back and relax. Thanks guys you really made our special even more special so thank you very much

Cathal & Lizzy, October 2017

We had our wedding in Moyvalley Hotel / Balyna House on October 28th 2017 and enjoyed every minute of it. We had 175 guests on the day and had our reception drinks in Balyna House and then the main dinner in Moyvalley hotel which was really great and a nice mixture of old and new. We really can't thank the staff enough (especially Orla, Simon & Aisling) who catered for our every need. It really is an amazing wedding venue with great staff and competitive rates. The cellar bar was a real high light and we had our resident bar drinks here until the wee hours! Couldn't fault this hotel, it lived up to and exceeded our expectations.

Colette & Will, May 2015

We had our wedding in Moyvalley in May 2015 and it did not disappoint. It was everything we had hoped for and more. The reception in the house was lovely. The baked goods and canapés were very popular and our guests loved the house and gardens. From the point of view of the couple, we really liked the we were able to have our photos taken in the grounds behind the house so we were nearby to all our guests.

We has dinner in the hotel because our number was too large for the house. Everything was great. The atmosphere was really good, the staff were really enthusiastic and the food was delicious and plentiful. Our guests also complimented the wine. Catherine in the restaurant was excellent too. Our other wedding suppliers, band, photographer, photobooth, florist, etc… had no trouble getting access or setting up and the hotel staff were cooperative and helpful with them.

We dealt with Lynn R who was really excellent at all times. Lynn C also helped us out and was great too. Nothing was ever too much trouble and we really felt that we were listened to and that everybody tried to give us exactly what we wanted. We rented Balyna House for the night of the wedding so that our immediate families and bridal party would all have a night in those rooms. (The rooms really are beautiful!) Many of our guests stayed in the hotel for the night and we had a chance to meet up and chat over a delicious breakfast the next morning. The whole event flew by without a hitch. There were some nice touches too in the form of little surprises from the hotel which I won’t ruin now by describing.

We could not recommend Moyvalley highly enough. We thought it was good value given that the house and grounds make is so much more than a standard hotel. We did not have even one negative piece of feedback about the venue from any of our 160 guests. We wish all the team in Moyvalley every success in future,

Naomi & David, June 2015

Where to start, we had our wedding here on 26th June. Everybody that attended the wedding is still raving about the stunning venue, gorgeous food and amazing friendly staff! Both Lynn and Orla looked after us so well during the run-up, day itself and throughout the whole weekend, nothing was too much! Daniel the chef was brilliant and made sure we were happy with everything being served. Barry and Simon where brilliant on the day and made sure that everything went smoothly. We had a BBQ the following day in Balyna House and again everybody was impressed with the amazing feed and how well we were looked after. I would highly recommend any couple to have their wedding here. We wish we could do it all again but exactly the same way!

Thanks a million.

Marie & Glen, September 2015

We had our Wedding on the grounds of Moyvalley Hotel and Golf resort last month and I cannot rate my experience high enough. We had our reception in the Stone House and it was so beautifully decorated that it was a magical experience walking up the aisle. The reception was held in Balyna House and I could not have asked for a beautiful venue to share with my family on my special day. The meal was fabulous, my guest were very impressed. It was beautifully presented and hot, which in my experience is a rare compliment. So a big thank you to the chefs and waiters and waitresses on the day. You are the hidden gems in the hospitality industry.

A special thanks to Barry, he kept a very cool head on the day when the little things went wrong!
And lastly a huge thanks to Orla, the Wedding and Events Coordinator. From the start she was just as excited for my Wedding as myself and my now hubby were. There was nothing that she wouldn't do for us to make the day as special as it was. There was nothing I had to do but turn up, get beautified, get married and have fun. Orla and her amazing Team did the rest.
I cannot recommed Moyvalley Hotel enough to other Brides-to-be. So if you are reading this and think of having your wedding there, go check it out you will fall in love with it instantly. Simon, has created a brilliant staff team and it was an absolute pleasure to share my day with them.

Thanks again to everyone.

Dear Moyvalley Team,

First and foremost, our sincere apologies this testimonial is such a long time coming. We have had a hectic couple of months since the wedding and shockingly are still getting around to some of our post wedding to do’s.

Ruth and myself just wanted to thank the entire Moyvalley staff for making our wedding day perfect for the two of us and our guests. We both had an amazing time and our guests had nothing but good things to say about Moyvalley and its staff. Everybody loved the food and the venue and we’re over the moon we chose to celebrate our wedding day there.

Lynn was our wedding coordinator and she went above and beyond to meet all our requests and ensure everything was set up exactly how we planned on the day, so a massive thanks to her!

Thanks again!

Aileen & Krigh, June 2015

To all at Moyvalley,
It's been three months since our wedding and we can't believe how quickly time has flown by.
We want to say a huge thank you to everyone at Moyvalley for the amazing weekend we had for our wedding at Balyna House.
A very special thank you to the wedding co-ordinators we dealt with over the months. Lana, Lynn R, Lynn C & Orla. You were all amazing, answering all our many questions, making suggestions and reassuring us that all was under control. Your quick responses were really fantastic and between you all we always got all the information we needed.
Another special thank you to Barry, who was a very calming presence on the day. He kept it all running smoothly. A terrific guy who is fantastic at his job !
We had a magical few days at Moyvalley. For us it was the perfect venue. Being able to have the ceremony and reception in the same place with all our guest staying in the hotel or cottages was exactly what we were looking for. It kept everyone together all weekend and we felt like Balyna House was our home from home for the few days. Our guests from Ireland, UK and Canada were blown away with the house, hotel and its grounds. It was so peaceful and beautiful and well maintained. All the advantages of a modern hotel with the charm of a country house. The food for the meal exceeded our expectations. The wedding co-ordinators helped us shape the day they way we wanted it and the staff could not have been more helpful. We have amazing memories for our beautiful wedding at Balyna House, Moyvalley as do our guest and we can't wait to come back for another visit.

Pamela & Robert, June 2015

We had our wedding reception at Balyna house, last June.
Our wedding was everything we could have wished for. On the lead up to the wedding, the wedding coordinator Lynn and her team, were very helpful and had everything in hand. They put us at ease and no query or request was too small.
On the day of the wedding, Ann and her team in Balyna house were amazing. They were very professional and courteous, putting us at ease from the moment we arrived. The ambiance was exactly as we envisaged, formal while still being relaxed.
Our guests are still talking about how much they enjoyed the venue and continue to compliment the staff.
If you are looking for a venue we would highly recommend Moyvalley, you wont be disappointed.

Thank you again so much!
