Some of our happy couples - their happiness is our satisfaction
Katri McMahon, July 2022
We had this venue first booked for June 2020 (100 guests) but due to covid restrictions and venue closure our wedding date was postponed several times. We finally decided to go ahead with an intimate wedding (14 guests) 4 weeks after the venue was reopened in July 2022. We truly had an amazing day, Marcella and her staff ensured everything went perfectly on the day. We had our spiritual ceremony in the gallery room, the room was decorated beautifully with a wooden wedding arch, floral arrangements and lanterns. Our drinks reception was at the lovely garden room where we were served prosecco and canapes. We were also able to enjoy the private garden outdoors. Our delicious dinner was served in the drawing room, we were all seated together at a large dressed table. The 4 course meal was amazing, and our wonderful waitress Susan looked after us throughout the day. We were surprised by the barman serving us with cocktails, which was a nice personal touch. We would definitely recommend this venue for any couple looking for an intimate wedding in a beautiful setting.

Hi Nikki,
Thank you for your email and thank you for looking after us so well. We have to say the day was awesome, room was perfect and staff was so nice. We were very lucky with the weather, it was great that we could chill out with our guests outside in the private garden. We were afraid we’ll be stressed out but everything was prepared for us really well and we didn’t have to worry about anything.
We’ll highly recommend Kingswood and yourself to any of our friends who are getting married.
Florence Lawlor – July 2019
We only booked our wedding 3 months before the date. We met with Nikki and she organized everything for us all we needed to do was turn up on the day. I would recommend KingsWood house for any wedding small or big. The staff on the day couldn’t do enough for us and our guests. We had elderly guests at our wedding and the staff went above and beyond to assist them in any way they could. Great venue, great staff, great wedding planner and beautiful food. Top class venue I would highly recommend it.
Niamh – May 2019
We had an amazing day. The whole process of organising a wedding can be stressful at times, but Nikki and the staff at the Kingswood Hotel helped us out more than they could know. From our first meeting we were given a blank canvas and together we managed to plan a really special and fun day. We had a humanist ceremony followed by a drinks reception, then dinner and dancing. All our guests couldn’t get over how relaxed and happy we were. They thought the venue, food and staff were amazing. My guests who I have met up with since our wedding have talked about how well looked after they were, things that I would of missed…which is so lovely to hear.
We want to again thank Nikki and all the staff at the Kingswood Hotel that made our day so special. See you for our anniversary 😉
Susanne and Marc – December 2018
We celebrated our wedding with Kingswood House and we couldn’t have chosen a better venue. From the first day we went in to view the hotel until now, the staff were and still are just amazing. Raj, Nikki and Stephen were there for us no matter how small the request and they went above and beyond for us, along with the rest of the staff. Nikki is extremely professional and outstanding in every aspect of wedding Coordination. We can safely say you are in good hands. The food was absolutely amazing and everyone complimented it. The chef Sergiu Berzan is an outstanding chef and we would highly recommend him. The decor and the layout of the room was done up beautifully with its beautiful rustic charm. This hotel really is a hidden gem. We had a BBQ on the second day and would highly recommend this. The girls behind the bar and the after hours manager were great and made us feel very comfortable in a very relaxed atmosphere which was very welcomed after such a hectic but fantastic day before hand. Again the food was amazing and we had the garden suit for this and it worked perfectly for us. Occasionally we go up for some dinner to McGettigans and we always receive a great reception. We would like to thank everyone at the Kingswood Hotel for making our day so special. It truly was an unforgettable day that we will remember for the rest of our lives.

Our wedding day 14-08-18 was so amazing in the Kingswood hotel. Thank you Kingswood team for making our day so special. The food was really fresh, hot and everything tasted exceptionally good and I’m a qualified chef. The staff were amazing as they attended to our every needs, they made us feel very special, no request was too big. Our Guests were overwhelmed by the whole day, the beautiful hotel, filled with fun and dedicated staff and amazing food so much, it has been named the best wedding ever in my family, me being the youngest of nine and last to marry. Thank you Kingswood team, especially Darrelle and Raja, you helped us create the atmosphere to make it the Best Day of our Live’s. Ciaran and Bella. We will be back to McGettigans for your delicious food and great sense of humor Susan and hope someday we get invited back to a wedding for the whole experience.
Tobi & Iona – July 2018
My wife and I got married here in July. We came over from the UK as did most of our guests and stayed for a few days. The venue was absolutely perfect. We held the ceremony and reception in the Locke suite which was absolutely beautiful and everything went perfectly to plan thanks to all of the amazing helpful and friendly staff. The food was also amazing. I would defiantly recommend this venue to anyone planning a wedding in Dublin.
Joe and Lua, December 2017
Kingswood House was the perfect location for our wedding. The Joseph Locke Suite is a bright, beautiful space & we were set on it once we saw it! The package we put together with Caroline & her team suited our requirements perfectly & they were very accommodating to our requests at all times. The day itself ran seamlessly from start to finish with great support from the Kingswood House staff which made our day so much easier & enjoyable. All we have heard since the wedding is how impressed our guests were with the venue, food & service which speaks for itself… We are extremely grateful to all at Kingswood for giving us a day to remember!

Testimonial from Celebrant
“I am a Solmniser (Celebrant) with SPIRITUAL CEREMONIES who performs legally binding marriage ceremonies 7 days a week. I have been in and will be in a lot of venues and have the pleasure of meeting many event coordinators. When arriving to a venue to perform a ceremony it is always great to consult with the coordinator. Its very important to know that everyone is here to make sure that every second given and ever detail is everything that the couple have visualised.
This is exactly how Nikki had everything when I arrived to the Kingswood Hotel. The professionalism Nikki shows makes my job a lot easier which allows myself and each supplier give their own position 110%. Nikki has a great team around her but she still is very hands on and uses her great eye for detail to implement everything down to the tiniest detail that helps make the venue and each couples day perfect.
Professional, a perfectionist, a Lady are just a few words to describe Nikki. Once you as a couple meet her, you will know you are in great hands which will allow you as a couple to stress less and allow you to enjoy your build up to your special day”
