Having our wedding at the Talbot Hotel Ballincollig was the best decision we made for our wedding.

The venue, staff, decor and food were amazing.

Tanusha is absolutely amazing at her job. Her creativity, kindness and professionalism are out of this world. She will make all your ideas come …

to life and steer you in the right direction.

The team she works with will make you feel so welcome and treat you and your guests like royalty, and do it all with great humour, making our day all the more fun. Brandon, Rose and Janice were fantastic on the day and made all our guests happy and well attended to.

We will never forget how they treated us and our guests, and we are so grateful.

Choosing the Oriel/Talbot was an easy decision for me and Aidan. We had attended a wedding here previously and were very impressed with everything.

Tanusha, the wedding coordinator, was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish. Her enthusiasm and love for her job were evident from every …

interaction, whether it was by phone, email or onsite visit. Her bubbly personality and infectious laugh made it feel like you were chatting with a friend and took the stress out of the wedding planning.

When the big day came, everything was seamless, Tanusha and the team gently guided us through the day and directed us on the next steps as the day unfolded.

Compliments to the chef, also on the amazing food that was served throughout the day. We had heard so much positive feedback even prior to the wedding about the food in the hotel, and it did not disappoint. The menu tasting was a nice touch to give us a chance to taste our chosen menu prior to the big day.

Thanks to each and every one of the team for their contribution in making our special day so memorable.

I would like to start by saying we had the most relaxed day due to the time and effort put in by Tanusha. There was nothing that was refused, and Tanusha also took what we said and improved it in every possible way.

We started the night before in the Bridal Suite, and the madness started very …

early in the morning with breakfast delivered, and the choices did not leave anything out. Tanusha popped in to make sure we were all on track. As she had all the notes taken, she knew when everyone was arriving. She also kept me on track with the transport arriving at 11 am.

On arrival back after the legal bit was complete, Tanusha was ready with two glasses of bubbly and let us know when everything was ready for us to come in after the Photos.

The meal was as we remembered at the tasting and even better, as the place seemed to go silent when the main was served. There were loads of empty plates throughout. The mushroom vol-au-vent was amazing, and my favourite part of the meal. I have not had better anywhere else. The salmon was perfectly cooked, and the sauce is still being mentioned as it was so light yet flavourful. The evening food was perfectly timed, and there was plenty to go around. The chicken kebabs were succulent and tasty, the spring rolls were perfectly crispy, and the mini fish and chips were a perfect treat for the kids.

The staff were excellent, they kept the glasses full and made sure we were all happy with the meal. The night manager, Rory (I hope I have his name right), was very good at keeping us on track and made sure we were taken care of. A special mention was made for Anne, the Reservations Manager, who made sure all the guests were in the best rooms for their needs. My father does not have great mobility, and she made sure he was close to the function room. Tanusha was very good at making sure all the preparations were spot on. The menus were perfect, as my mother has passed, she made sure her favourite flower was included in the design.

I would highly recommend

Our wedding day flew by. Everyone tells you that, and they’re right. We had a fantastic day, and it really was one of those lifetime moments to always look back on. The hotel was brilliant all weekend and couldn’t have been more helpful, ensuring everything went as planned. Planning the wedding …

was a breeze, not what everyone tells you, but it was. We hadn’t a clue from an organising perspective what to do, but the wedding organiser, Tanusha walked us through everything and almost gave us tasks for each meet up on what needed to be done and by when. She certainly kept the pressure off us. This hotel is definitely worth a look. It really was a fantastic day.

When we first walked into The Talbot Hotel, we knew it it would be our location for our wedding day. We had both a ceremony and a reception in the hotel. The work that went into organising it was unreal, from transforming it from the ceremony to 3 hours later sitting in the same room for our dinner. …

We dealt with Tanusha, she was amazing from start to finish. she would have a normal conversation to get to know each other but at the same time work so hard on your wedding the detail that she put in was unbelievable no job was to big for her, her energy was so calming throughout the whole planning of our day. And for that we are so grateful. food on the day was outstanding we couldn't fault a bit of it. Myself and my husband would highly recommend having your wedding at The Talbot Hotel.
