...how amazing your venue, your food and best of all, how brilliant the staff are.
We truly had the best and most memorable day possible.

Guys I really don't know where to start....  First of all me and Luke would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you did for us yesterday. We are so overwhelmed by how how perfect you all made our special day. You made it run so smoothly and made it a day that we will cherish and never forget! The time and effort that you and the rest of the staff went through means so much to us, that I just don't know what to say to thank you enough. Literally every person who attended our wedding had so many compliments and you are both to thank for that. All of our guests had the best time at Craig y nos castle! We are so thankful to you all. Your time and effort is priceless and we are so grateful for everyone's help. We cannot recommend you enough! I have posted a review on your Facebook page and will continue to tell people, in however way that I can, how amazing your venue, your food and best of all, how brilliant the staff are. We truly had the best and most memorable day possible...and the majority of it is down to you. Thank you so much...best wishes Kim and Luke

If you have got this far, you will probably be a local wedding with reduced use of the Accommodation. If all your guests are reasonably local, you will have more day guests but few will want to stay overnight.

Would you have a minimum of 100 day guests, with up to 150 evening guests, for a large all-inclusive wedding maybe with fewer wanting to stay overnight?

Would you like to have guests stay 'the night before' and also to have your wedding on a Saturday?

This means taking over the Castle for the Friday as well. We offer you exclusive use, with Dinner & B&B for all your guests the night before. If you are interested in taking over the whole castle for a full two day weekend, see our Weekend Exclusive Deal - VIP wedding.

This is for a minimum of 70 guests staying overnight for two consecutive nights and days, with full use of the entire castle fully exclusive for your full weekend wedding. This is exceptional value provided you have high accommodation use for two nights consecutively.

Comparing Costs

When you look at Wedding Packages with any wedding venue, look for:

1, Total cost of the wedding package and

2, Cost per Guest/  'cost per head'.

For comparison purposes, look at 'cost per guest' based on your own guest numbers. Compare costs by looking at the 'cost per head' at each venue - compare wedding venue costs here.

Costs per guest of £150-£250 per guest and more, may apply. High 'per guest' costs can get 'overlooked' within an overall wedding package quote.

On our comparison charts we checked cost per guest for each venue. See competitor comparison chart. There is a LOT of information here but if you are 'on a budget', it's worth a look.
