"Thank you all for all you did to make this past weekend an absolutely wonderful wedding celebration for Susan and Joe and all in attendance. We appreciate all the work which goes into making such an event run smoothly. The beautiful facilities, the delicious food, the great service all add up to a most memorable time. We’ve been telling all our friends up here about Antrim 1844 Hotel, and what a special place it is for a get-away. Again, thank you all so very much."

"Thank you for helping to make my Mom and Dad’s retirement party on February 7 a success. Our guests all said they had a great time, and especially enjoyed the food. I’m so glad I decided to have the event at Antrim 1844. It was very special night."

"We want to express our thanks for everything you, Chef Gettier and the entire Antrim staff did to make our wedding a most wonder occasion. The setting is lovely and we were most fortunate that the day was sunny and not too hot. Chef Gettier did an outstanding job with our wedding luncheon; our guests all thoroughly enjoyed the meal. The service was impeccable; staff members were pleasant and helpful. We will always have fond memories of our wedding at Antrim. We are already planning to return to celebrate our anniversaries."

"Our wedding was November 6...and it was absolutely perfect. In talking to many of my friends about their weddings, they all have "regrets, or things they wished they would have done differently"...but my husband and I have said MANY TIMES....we wouldn't have changed a thing with ours!

It was an absolutley magical day...it was our Fairy Tale come true! Antrim is a gorgeous venue rich in history and charm. It is the perfect setting for an elegant and special wedding. The Historic Mansion, the English Garden, and Glass Pavillion allow you to create a wedding ceremony and recpetion that is unique to you and your fiance! Our guests raved about the cuisine and the fabulous service...and we're still hearing compliments several months later. The venue sells itself...but I must say," ...Antrim's..." expertise and genuine passion in making sure couples have the perfect wedding, are qualities that we didn't see anywhere else.

My husband and I have yet to watch our Wedding DVD Photo Album...with dry eyes. As I said before, it was a Fairy Tale, beyond our greatest expectations, come true!"

This could be the shortest evaluation - the wedding was perfect - and the briefest expression of gratitude - a great big thank you - that you have ever received. But, as one who stood by while the father of the bride delivered his "brief" remarks at the reception, we suspect you knew we wouldn't be so brief! Nor should we be.

From the time we sat down with you for the first time in the drawing room last summer, we were confident that Jennifer & Darron Would get the perfect wedding they so richly deserved & you more than any other single person delivered it. Okay, so you weren't responsible for the weather in the mid 70s & the perfect light for the photographer. We've already thanked Mother Nature for those. But you were responsible for seeing that every other detail of the event took place as we had arranged it.

Please express our thanks to Michael Gettier for the marvelous food from the 4 o'clock tea & cookies & tasty appetizers to the delicious sirloin steak & crab cake main meal & the generous burrito at breakfast the next day, the food was outstanding. The wedding guests were full of compliments for the food & service & a few even walked away with the recipe for that magnificent crab cake.

You're right of course, when you say that Antrim's Gardens, Pavilion, & Rooms sell themselves. But without the over-the-top friendly service of the staff & their careful attention to the needs of every guest, this wouldn't have been the perfect wedding. JoAnn & I can't thank you enough for making this one of the most memorable & rewarding days in our lives.

With Warm regards,
The Kreckes



Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For making our night at Antrim so wonderful! We loved our cozy room! Dinner was amazing! We ate & ate J It was a late valentine surprise for Darron and you made it really special. We are so excited to have our wedding there.

Thanks again,
-Darron & Jen



I can't thank you enough for making sure that Shant;s Wedding Day was a success. Everything was perfect and I know that doesn't happen by magic. We have had many compliments from our guests on the food, staff and ambiance of the setting. I would recommend the Antrim (and you in particular) to anyone planning a special event. Thanks again!

Sincerely,
-Penny Powers




"It wasn't until we had a cake to cut that we understood 'how much we "needed" a cake to cut! Thank you for such a beautiful and delicious creation. We can only imagine how much care went into making it and feel so fortunate to have received something that so much time and thought went into. We shared a piece on our wedding night and have frozen the rest to save for our anniversary. However your cake was almost too pretty to eat. We even had to take a picture of it before we could allow ourselves to taste it.

Thank you so much for not only the cake, but for all of the large and small ways you helped to make our wedding festivities so special. We're grateful to you for your humor and perspectives and most of all your patience with our never-ending questions and requests. You made our wedding such an enjoyable experience from start to finish, and we actually felt as though Antrim become our second home during all of the months of planning. How wonderful it is to have found such a special place. We will cherish the memories always.

Wishing you much continued success and looking forward to celebrating our anniversaries with Antrim in the years to come."

Fondly,
-Matt & Jenny Gillis



"Dear Mr. and Mrs. Mollett,

My husband and I were married at Antrim 1844 on Thursday, October 23rd. Our experience (and that of our guests) at Antrim was everything we had hoped it would be and we wanted to take the opportunity to comment you and your staff.

From the moment we arrived on the day of our wedding until we left the next morning, the staff at Antrim took excellent care of us. When we arrived, the woman at the front desk immediately knew who we were..." " ...Our room, the rooms, and the were just thrilled with them. All of the little touches - the welcome letter, James the Butler, turndown service - these are things that set Antrim apart and make its guests feel welcome and special...."

"...We must also commend the chef, Michael Gettier, for his outstanding menu. We thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to meet with him and design our menu. His ideas were wonderful, and our guests enjoyed a phenomenal meal that they will not soon forget. Sia Ayrom also did an excellent job in selecting wines that were a perfect compliment to our meal.

Antrim 1844 - and its wonderful staff - met and exceeded our expectation. We know you will have some return customers from among our weddings guests, and new customers from all those who have seen our wedding pictures (which truly show the beauty of the property) and heard out stories about our experience at Antrim. Thank you to your staff for making our wedding day unforgettable! "

Sincerely,
-Kirsten Olean
