"We just wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for being a part of our wedding day and the role you played in making the day absolutely perfect. We loved working with you and really appreciate your attention to detail, patience, professionalism and excellent advice regarding planning such an event. It really helped reduce our stress regarding the whole wedding knowing we were in such good hands. Our guests are still raving about both the beautiful venue and the delicious food (many have said it was the best food they have ever had at a wedding, and several others have said it is the best steak they have had in their lives!). We have heard lots of compliments about your wonderful serving staff also and how friendly, kind and professional they were. Thank you so much for your help in creating wonderful memories that will last a lifetime. Best wishes,"
"We would like to thank you all so much for an absolutely incredible wedding reception last Saturday, it exceeded all of our expectations and we wouldn’t have changed a thing. The food and wine was outstanding, our guests are still raving about it! But really it’s the team at MPW that make it so special, thank you again Ciara, Gustavo, Robert and the others whose names we don’t know, for going beyond the call of duty. You all worked so hard that evening looking after everyone but made it look effortless, always smiling and full of good cheer. We felt so comfortable and relaxed on a day which could have been stressful. We look forward to going back soon! Our very best wishes."
“To all the team at Marco Pierres, Genuinely from the bottom of our hearts we cannot thank you enough for the day you gave us on the 29th of December. Right from the beginning every single detail was seamless and at no point was anything an issue. You worked with us to deliver an incredible 25 guest wedding fairytale. The service and atmosphere was like a regular night at your restaurant, always buzzing and full of character. Every single person commented on the venue,staff, & food, how it was one of the best meals and venues they had been too for a wedding. Going through rescheduling a wedding and the uncertainty of what the past year has brought, we can truly say it’s been a pleasure and it means so much to get the customer service and a venue working with you right now to give you the best day imaginable. Thank you all sincerely on your outstanding delivery.”
” From the day we met you and did our tasting, we had every confidence that things would run like clockwork and that everything would be perfect – and it was. The day was on point. The food was amazing and we have non stop really good feedback from our guests about the food and wine. Although we had to make some alterations due to the rain, everything looked like that was always the way it was meant to be. Again, from the day of our tasting to the day after the wedding when we collected our bits and pieces, the staff were always friendly and helpful. Our guests commented on the level of customer service from the staff, nothing was too much trouble and to be fair I don’t think they were a tough crowd. We spent a few days in a five star hotel down the country and they would be so envious of your staff. So, thank you very much for everything you did, the leadership obviously comes from the top.”
“Trich, Matt, Emil and the rest of the waiting staff (particularly Gustavo!), Paddy and I cannot begin to tell you how much we enjoyed our day in MPW!! Absolutely everything was PERFECT! The food, attention to detail and level of service we received was second to none!! I cannot tell you the number of our guests who came up to us and said it was the best wedding they’d ever been to!! I cannot praise you all enough and I cannot recommend you all and the venue highly enough!! Thank you so much again!!”
“Well, I think it goes without saying that we had the night of our lives on New Year’s Eve, thank you all so much! It was really amazing! We were blown away with how much fun we and everyone else had. We’ve had so many thank yous and well wishes since, and everyone has been so complimentary of the venue, the food, the service and the staff. Genuinely, best food I have ever had at a gathering of such a size, wedding or other function. And we have had so many people rave about the food. All the staff were just so friendly and so professional, all our guests remarked that the service really stood out”.
“This is a long overdue email but I wanted to drop you a note to say thank you so much for the outstanding service provided by you and your team not only on our wedding day but for all the months prior! We knew we had nothing to worry about with you in charge and we really, REALLY appreciate all the support, emails & calls answered as we worked through organising and reorganising the wedding. You have the patience of a saint! On the day, the food, wine and service were all top class. Thanks again to all your team. Our guests had such a great time and one couple are even hoping to have their wedding in the venue at some point next year! We hope to see you soon! Thank you so much & all the best.”
“We would like to extend our sincerest thanks to all of the staff at Marco Pierre White who made our wedding day as incredible as we envisaged. Given the circumstances this year, we were extremely lucky to have been able to have our wedding reception here, and we can honestly say that the staff went above and beyond to make our day absolutely wonderful. Both ourselves and our guests were blown away by the atmosphere, the food and the service, all of which far surpassed our expectations. Words just can’t describe the amazing feeling you get upon entering the twinkling courtyard at Marco Pierre White. It’s a place like no other and we couldn’t recommend it highly enough.”
I had some extremely picky people at my wedding they were blown away , the whole thing was flawless I honestly could not have even dreamed it went so well , the food the level of service, everything! It was fabulous , I’ll write a proper review next week but the out of ten it was amazing! Matt and Lorcan are such pros , their guidance on things were spot on!
A huge thank you to all the team at MPW! We had a really wonderful evening which was down to how relaxed we felt on the night. The staff are true professionals! From start to finish the evening ran like clockwork. This meant all we had to do was enjoy ourselves! Our guests loved the delicious food, the atmosphere and the pure ease of the location. We were so delighted with our choice and would not hesitate to recommend MPW’S! A special thank you to Matt, Lorcan and Trish for all their help. Susie and Chris.
As soon as we viewed The Courtyard we knew we had found our wedding venue for our Dublin City wedding in May 2018. The Garden Room is a stunning intimate space with beautiful light and contemporary features. At the wedding tasting we got an opportunity to taste a wide range of dishes from both wedding menus and Matt, a serious wine connoisseur paired each course with several red and white wine options. We also got a real sense of how things would run on the day and Matt took on many of the small jobs that we hadn’t even thought about!! As soon as we arrived to the courtyard after the wedding ceremony all the staff took charge and made the day so special. The food was incredible, as was the staff and service. Our guests couldn’t praise it highly enough and Lorcan the manager was constantly available and checking in with us to ensure all was well! We can’t say enough good things about The Courtyard and it made our wedding day truly perfect. THANK YOU!!
Kev and I wanted to extend a heartfelt thank you for hosting our wedding on the 4th August past. We’re just back from a week away and still going through txts and emails full of compliments from our guests!! We are delighted that we chose your venue. From the outset we were very impressed with members of staff we with dealt with. You made it very easy and very enjoyable to plan, something that removed a lot of stress! We knew from the second we entered the courtyard that that was our venue, it set the scene for our special day! Our guests were blown away by your phenomenal staff who were so friendly, helpful and couldn’t have done enough for everyone! They are a credit to your business. The food was fantastic. Everyone is still raving about the meal and we are delighted our guests were so happy! We really can’t thank you all enough.
We had a great day on 5 May! Everything went really well. The venue looked great – we didn’t do anything extra with the tables and it all looked really simple and elegant! People are still raving about the food – while the steak was always going to be a winner, the crab and the peanut butter and chocolate cake went down a storm. The guys on the ground were great on the night! There were a couple of last minute changes to plans but they facilitated everything really smoothly! We are so glad we chose the venue – with c 100 guests it was exactly what we wanted! Thanks for all your help with the organization!
The Courtyard restaurant hosted our wedding April 2018. From the moment we walked into the restaurant we knew it was the place for us. The courtyard is just beautiful and it was perfect for pre wedding drinks. We wanted something a little bit different to the normal hotel weddings and The courtyard ticked all the boxes for us. The food was fantastic and we really enjoyed our menu tasting Matt really looked after us and nothing was too much bother. The day was perfect from start to finish our guests arrived to a Processco and Beer reception in the courtyard. The band set up in advance which was perfect we danced until late and had the most amazing day. Thanks to everyone in the Courtyard for making our day so special.
We had an absolutely fabulous day-I couldn’t recommend this venue more. And Matt and his team were super! Everyone kept telling us it was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding, and were so complementary of the staff.
“We had the most amazing day. It wasn’t just us who were bowled over by the staff of MPW but all of our guests were so impressed – they were incredible. We really couldn’t recommend it enough. It was just so perfect”.
We are so happy we chose Marco Pierre White Courtyard Bar and Grill as our wedding venue. The day was perfect. The food was spectacular and despite there being 150 guests at our wedding, the venue still had such an intimate feel. We can not thank Matt and all of his staff enough. We were organising a wedding from abroad and did not have much time for wedding planning but once we had had our first meeting with Matt he took over all the details and all that was left for us to do was to enjoy the day! All of the staff on the night were so friendly and helpful and the service was incredible. We have had so many guests tell us that it was the best the wedding venue they have ever been to. Thank you to all at Marco Pierre Whites for making it such a special day for us.

Thank you so much Matt for all the work you put in over the last weeks and months. Saturday night went so smoothly – everything was amazing, not least of all the food. Please say a huge thank you to all the kitchen staff for their wonderful efforts on our behalf. The guests were amazed by the quality of food produced for such a large number of guests in such a short space of time. I genuinely cannot express how wonderful an experience it has been organising this event at Marco Pierre White’s, and that is really down to you. You have been more than accommodating, warm and helpful. I am not the only one to have said this, and I know that the music/show wouldn’t have been possible without the kind assistance you gave to Shauna, Chris and the crew. From Franzi and myself (as well as from my parents) – a huge thank you for what really was the night of our lives. We enjoyed it immensely, and I cannot wait to dine again in the restaurant whenever I am in Dublin next. We hope to see you in there again! Best of luck with everything in your own working and personal life. I sincerely hope that the headaches will be few and far between. With every best wish.
Marco Pierre Whites is run by an amazing team, words hardly describe the tone, mood, style, glamour and professionalism they portrayed on our wedding day. From our first meeting in September through to our wedding day on NYE we were consistently enchanted by the professionalism shown by all at MPW’s. Each and every member of staff was gracious, courteous, attentive, and friendly. We had the most lavish wedding reception imaginable in such opulent surroundings with a truly intimate atmosphere. MPW’s maintained their reputably flawless high quality throughout the day while hosting our 132 guests with ease, grace and five star professionalism. There is nothing generic about this venue; from the food to the atmosphere it oozes style, quality and elegance. It is an established restaurant that needs nothing but the wedding party to arrive. We wish the team at MPW’s the very best and feel any future newlyweds would be privileged to host their reception at your venue.
"We had the most fantastic day for our wedding at Marco Pierre Whites in Donnybrook. Throughout the whole experience from booking, to food tasting to the day itself the team made everything so easy and stress free for us. On the day itself the venue looked fantastic, the food was delicious, and the staff were just incredible. Everything went off without a hitch and neither of us had to worry about a thing on the day and just enjoyed ourselves with our family and friends. I look forward to returning to the venue for our anniversary."
