The Spa Hotel Review, Tunbridge Wells

The Spa Hotel situated in historic Tunbridge Wells is a quite beautiful venue, the grounds were fantastic for daytime photos, the staff friendly and helpful, the food divine (the bride and groom provided me a meal so I can vouch for it 100%). From my point of view as a performer the Royal Suites acoustics had it all and complimented my 2000watt sound system perfectly. The groom said to me at the end of the night that the sound was "perfectly balanced and as crystal clear as if i was listening to it on my iPOD" so i took that as high praise indeed. There was a large staged area which i filled nicely with my light show and i highlighted the arched windows wih uplighting. It all amounted to a great experience for myself and the guests and was definately one of my if not my favourite venue this summer, taking into account iv played at some very exclusive venues this year that says a lot about The Spa Hotel.

On this occasion we also had a jazz band playing on the lawn during the photographs which was really nice. When the guests entered the wedding breakfast i had arranged for jazz to be playing throughout the meal and following the speeches the bar opens straight away so the reception moves swiftly into place without oo much of a delay due to only 2 or 3 tables needing to be removed. The dancefloor is an oblong shape but suits the room very well and is carpeted over during the day. The night i was there I heard afterwards that there had been some gatecrashers from another wedding party down the coridoor who preferred the music but they were apparantly removed straight away. Although The Spa Hotel has the facility to host 3 weddings on the same day you do still feel like it retains a feel of exclusivity unlike some other venues i have been to that feel more like "wedding conveyer belts" which makes you feel less special.

There is also a lovely lake which is perfect for photos and i also noticed the photographer take some aeriel photos from a staircase running up the rear of the building.

I would highly recommend this venue plus it is ideal for wheelchair access.

If you need any advice or recommendations regarding venues, entertainment or suppliers i have worked with feel free to drop me a line and i will help you out the best i can. I have performed now at over 600 weddings over the past 10 years and have made some very good contacts. I have now expanded my own business to include bands, solo acts (harpists, classical guitar etx), duos, tributes, a caricaturist and a magician. I met all these performers during the time in my previous role in event management when i was responsible for managing entertainment for important events such as weddings and corporate functions so Choice Entertainment is now a one stop palce for all your entertainment requirements.
