OVERVIEW

“We recently had our wedding at Stamford Plaza Brisbane, and I cannot recommend them enough. From day one, the team were amazing and went above and beyond to make sure everything went off without a hitch. Every tiny detail was thought of and planned, and it made not only the day but the entire lead up to the wedding such an easy and stress-free process. The grand ballroom was stunning and was everything we had hoped for, the accommodation was second to none, and we still have people telling us how much they loved the food and the entire evening! It really was the most magical night, and we honestly just can’t thank the Stamford enough.” - Georgina R.

We couldn’t have been happier with our experience at Stamford Plaza Brisbane. Isabel, our event coordinator, was amazing from the very beginning and made the whole process feel so easy. She was always quick to answer questions, happy to help, and genuinely cared about making sure everything was exactly how we wanted it. This celebration meant so much to our family, and Isabel and the team made us feel completely supported every step of the way. On the day itself, all of the staff were incredibly attentive and worked so hard behind the scenes to make everything run smoothly. We felt so looked after, and our guests commented on how wonderful everyone was. The setting by the river was beautiful, the food was amazing, and the service was exceptional. Most importantly, the team helped create a day that felt really special and meaningful for us. We are so grateful to Isabel and everyone at Stamford Plaza for helping us create such a wonderful memory with our family and friends. We’re already looking forward to coming back in the future to celebrate more milestones, and it’s lovely knowing we now have a place that will always be special to us.

We recently had our wedding at the Stamford and I cannot recommend them enough. From day one Kate and the team were amazing and went above and beyond to make sure everything went off without a hitch. Every tiny detail was thought of and planned and it made not only the day but the entire lead up to the wedding such an easy and stress free process. Kate in particular is a miracle worker, absolutely nothing was too much trouble for her, day or night, weekday or weekend, she was there and it made such a difference to the entire experience. The grand ballroom was stunning and was everything we had hoped for, accommodation at the Stamford was as expected second to none and we still have people telling us how much they loved the food and the entire evening! It really was the most magical night and we honestly just can’t thank the Stamford enough. We would definitely use The Stamford again for any functions, or even a night away!

Stamford had a really wonderful all in one package that suited us perfectly. Our ceremony and reception areas were put together beautifully. The suite was beautiful and we had a tray of dessert waiting for us at the end of the night. The food was absolutely divine.
