We recently had our wedding at the Mercure Parkway Leeds. I can honestly say it was the most amazing day of our lives. Simon, George and Alex were amazing start to finish which meant I did not have to worry about a single thing on the day. They planned the timings of the day down to a tea. They also…

decided to hold the drinks reception outside last minute as we had fluke sunny weather in March which was a lovely touch. They went above and beyond to ensure we were happy with our decorations even arranging new chair covers to be delivered on the morning of the ceremony. The food was lovely and was a perfect amount for our 110 guests that were being catered for. The setting was very picturesque and it really is a hidden gem of a building. Above all the communication from the team was brilliant and they made me feel very at ease during the mornings preparations. The turn around time between the events in the day were planned perfectly and none of our guests were left waiting around for long periods of time. The evening reception went without a hitch and the hotel organised DJ was brilliant taking our own style music and turning the evening in to a proper party. The evening food in particular got 5 star reviews from our guests. The rooms were lovely and private which made it a really nice stay for our guests. We really felt like we were looked after throughout our stay and preparations. I would recommend anybody to get married here and I wish we could do it all again.

We initially picked the Parkway because we liked the look and feel of the Ballroom on the Park.
The staff were very friendly. The wedding planner was incredibly helpful during the planning of the wedding. She kept us really well informed and took all our ideas in her stride to help create the…

perfect day. She really gave structure to our ideas but without being pushy.
Our toastmaster on the day took any worries completely out of our hands and made sure the whole day ran perfectly. The perfect host!
The food was wonderful, served promptly and in plentiful supply.
The formal bits were done with an appropriate amount of formality and then everyone could let their hair down for the party. Really recommend this venue!

I just wanted to send you a quick note to yourself and your team to say how perfect you made the day for my wife and myself.
The whole team was very professional and ready to help when ever we needed you. You helped my grandma who had limited mobility and the guests were very complimentary of…

From our very first encounter with the Wedding Planner, Lauren Wilson, we felt that this is where we want our Wedding to take place.
As well as managing the tasks within her role with confidence, efficiency and pleasant communication in every interaction with us, she conveyed her genuine desire…

to help us and ensure the day was exactly as WE wanted it to be. We felt cared for. Conversation with Lauren was always appropriately personal and professionally relaxed. Her clear communication to other teams and individuals brought about a smooth and well managed day. The implied promise "we would have nothing to worry about" was completely accurate.
The confidence we felt at the beginning was continued with a strong attitude from each member of staff we encountered; that they actually wanted to be positive, friendly and effective and make everything work for us.
The preparation of the Ballroom was exactly what we wanted and every detail we mentioned to Lewis was acted upon. Your reccommended DJ Mark Gedney was first class which really encouraged our guests' talent on the floor.
Each person who contributed to the day of wonderful memories created at "The Mercure Leeds Parkway" where nothing is too much trouble.
We send our warm thanks and sincere appreciation.
Best wishes, Mr & Mrs Alan & Anne Mark

I cannot praise the staff enough, we had the full package Wedding.
A big thank you to all involved on this journey. Becki, Lauren, Laura, Paul (for helping me unload the car!) and Lewis.
I must praise Lewis for all his efforts and hard work on the night. Nothing was ever too much trouble and…

he was always checking if there was anything else we needed, he certainly went above and beyond.
I would certainly recommend this hotel, the staff in events are always on hand by email, phone call or meetings as we had frequent chats to make the day how we wanted and they have picked up ideas on the way.
The food was superb, cooked to perfection and generous servings.
All the guests commented on how nice the hotel and grounds are and the rooms are very nice.
A massive thank you to all

We held our wedding at The Parkway in November 2016 and could not be happier with how our day/evening went.
As the bride I stayed the night before with some friends and the hotel could not have looked after me better, from 'fixing' my room key to the smooth transition to the bridal suite the…

following morning.
There were a number of dietary requirements across our guests, including dairy, gluten and nut allergies, which they dealt with really well adapting the menu accordingly and even cooked one person an entirely different meal to everyone else!
Becki was brilliant helping us organise everything and putting us at ease, whilst our host Rob was just wonderful on the day. He calmed me down before it all started and ensured everything happened as it should (even with a 4yr old chief bridesmaid to deal with!)
My husband and I could not have had a more perfect day for us, and would recommend The Parkway to any couple looking for somewhere to tie the knot.
Thank you to everyone for making it perfect for us!
