Had a wonderful day, couldn’t fault the staff. Sadhana, our master of ceremonies was amazing! She made us feel very relaxed as she was so in control of the day to day runnings.Had a wonderful day, couldn’t fault the staff. Sadhana, our master of ceremonies was amazing!

Our wedding day was everything I had dreamed of. We literally had the most perfect day without any hitches. During the lead up to the wedding our wedding co-ordinator Laura was there whenever we needed her and would see that she responded with any queries that we had quickly and efficiently. A week before the wedding Shadanna (the toast master, sorry if I spelt your name wrong ) went through everything with us and on the day was absolutely amazing. she put myself and my partner at ease with everything and was so approachable and payed close attention to detail. All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves and couldn't praise the hotel staff enough. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and they were genuinely lovely people especially Dan who helped with the set up of our room in the Carrington Suite the day before, lovely lad. If i could do it all again i would definatly pick the Holiday Inn East, they were simply amazing. A few of our guests have also mentioned that they would look into having their wedding day there too. Hats off to you all 10/10! Thank you for an amazing day. xxxOur wedding day was everything I had dreamed of. We literally had the most perfect day without any hitches.

My now hubby and I got married in Italy in May 2018 and wanted to hold a reception party back in England for our extended family and friends. We live near Milton Keynes and had family and friends travelling from various locations in England, Ireland and Scotland, so wanted a convenient location for everyone. We picked the Holiday Inn MK Inn East as it ticked so many boxes for us - location, cost, quaint-ness of the building, helpful staff and being able to tailor things for us. All along the process (we booked the venue in May 2017 for our party in June 2018) we could visit when we wanted, ask as many questions as we needed to (and get prompt replies) and on the day everything went smoothly for us. The hotel holds regular wedding fairs which are really helpful and can help with supplies (which you can book though the hotel or independantly) - you can also use independent suppliers if you wish. We used the Carringron Suite for the party which had it's own bar and had doors leading out to the courtyard which was lovely. Two outstanding ladies at the hotel made the whole process so easy for us and answered all our questions - Katie Chopping (who was our contact from our initial enquiry about using the hotel right up to the day of the wedding) and Shadonna (who was our 'toastmaster' at the party and kept things to time etc. Both ladies knew their stuff inside out and helped make the evening run smoothly and such a wonderful time. We are so pleased we used this venue for our party and would defintiely recommend it. Wish we could do it all again!My now hubby and I got married in Italy in May 2018 and wanted to hold a reception party back in England for our extended family and friends.

Amazing wedding serviceAmazing wedding service
We are so happy with our decision to marry here. Our designated wedding co-ordinator throughout the planning process (Katie) was absolutely brilliant and so helpful. She always responded to my emails in a professional and efficient manner. Our toast master on the day of our wedding (Jenna) was also fantastic and made sure everything went smoothly. I had chosen a starter that I knew I wouldn't like but my guests would. On the day when she saw I wasn't eating it she went and got me an alternative. She also catered for one of my guests who didn't like the pudding. She truly couldn't have worked harder or been more helpful. I hope all future brides and grooms are as lucky to have these lovely ladies as we were. It was an amazing day from start to finish and one l will never forget,We are so happy with our decision to marry here.

From the moment we walked into the venue, we knew that this was for us. We met the lovely Katie on our first day and put down the deposit straight away, then the fun began. Numerous emails back and forth and various visits later, the day before our wedding was here. The staff were fantastic and helped us with all (there was a lot) our decorations. The day could not of gone any more perfect, I still look back on the day and cry as to how happy I was. during the evening I became ill and the receptionists helped me to my room and and made sure I was OK, after a sleep I danced the rest of the night away. We want to thank our wonderful toast master too (unfortunately her name slips our minds) everything during our day went perfectly. once again thank you to all the wonderful staff at the Holiday inn Milton Keynes east, and sorry for the mess. If you want a small or big wedding, they cater for it all. We can't recommend this venue enoughFrom the moment we walked into the venue, we knew that this was for us.

Perfect in every wayPerfect in every way
We recently had our wedding reception in the newly refurbished Lovett room (formerly pillars room) and have to say that it was the perfect venue. From start to finish Katie and her colleagues were very professional and paid attention to detail at all times. Nothing was too much effort and the day was ran very smoothly by Sadhanna our toast master. All of the staff were very welcoming and we had the perfect day. We would highly recommend the Holiday Inn MK east to anyone.We recently had our wedding reception in the newly refurbished Lovett room (formerly pillars room) and have to say that it was the perfect venue.
