The perfect place for your Wedding! – September 2025
“What an absolutely magical and wonderful experience! We decided on a Twilight Wedding, and the Holiday Inn Southend provided absolutely everything we needed for our dream wedding. The events team were absolutely amazing with helping create the best day for us, so accommodating and helpful. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The food was brilliant, and the overall atmosphere was just perfect. All our family have said how much they enjoyed their experience too. Thank you all so much again for giving us the best day we could have ever asked for!”
The food was absolutely amazing and beyond our expectations – August 2025
From the beginning of our wedding planning our allocated wedding manager, Hayley was very responsive and helpful. She has taken consideration of our wishes and made sure we were involved in every step of planning. We cannot forget about our wedding host Suzannah who was also very good in decorating our venue and ensured good time keeping and organisation during the day of our wedding. She made us feel at ease and made great effort to follow our wishes and made sure we were not feeling any stress on our special day. In overall Hayley and Susannah along with the rest of the staff we came across were very professional and friendly. The food was absolutely amazing and beyond our expectations. We would very much recommend the Holiday Inn venue for anyone who also plans to spend their wedding party at their facility. After the party we were given personalised gifts and welcomed to a beautiful room that was spacious with comfortable bed to rest over the night. We couldn’t be any happier and we are very grateful for their effort and professionalism. Thank you so much for such beautiful memories we have created and experience.
Absolutely Amazing! Hayley and Suzanna were brilliant – August 2025
We had our wedding at Holiday Inn Southend and it was absolutely beautiful. From booking the wedding a year before to the day of our wedding everything was so smooth, the rooms are beautiful- we had a lovely room with the airport view, the food was absolutely amazing we had so many compliments on the food (canapés, wedding breakfast and evening buffet ) the staff were so friendly and welcoming, the ceremony room and reception room was beautiful and Suzanna was amazing, the whole day from start to finish was everything we asked for and more and when we got back up to the room it was decorated beautifully with some lovely personalised mugs and a beautiful handmade card, Hayley our wedding planner is so so lovely and actually what sold us booking our wedding there, she is the friendliest person ever and we couldn’t have asked for any better. Thank you so much Holiday Inn Southend
Joanne and Doug – August 2024
“Our wedding day was all we could dream of and absolutely more. From the moment we met Hayley to view your hotel we were filled with complete confidence that you would make our day special. At each meeting and every email you were kind and so helpful. On our day Sue and Suzanna were calm and in complete control of everything They ensured that the day ran so smoothly we really cannot thank them enough They were so kind and we didn’t feel rushed at all. Their gentle guidance was so much appreciated. The food was fantastic and the service was so efficient. Every single member of staff were friendly and welcoming. All of the companies recommended by you (Kms and the DJ) were fantastic. We really cannot thank you or recommend you highly enough. Everything was absolutely perfect and we still glowing from an absolutely amazing day.”

Nickie and Stuart – July 2024
“We booked our wedding here 2 years ago and over them 2 years the team was amazing especially as I had a million and 1 questions over the time and nothing was too much effort for them they was amazing. Our wedding day, was everything we ever dreamt of, it ran smoothly all day we didn’t have to worry about anything and we got to enjoy the day and night to the max. The food was amazing and hot which is surprising when catering for a large number, the room and tables were beautiful it was like walking into a magical place. One of the best features is the sweeping staircase where you can have your photos taken. All of our guest had a great time and most saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Sue who was with us all day was absolutely amazing she is so good at her job and made sure we had everything we needed from preparation to the end of the day. All I can say is thank you to the whole team for everything you went above and beyond to make our day perfect in every way, I would highly recommend anyone to have their wedding here.”
