Irish Wedding Venues: The Ultimate List
Finding a venue for your wedding in Ireland is HARD. It's expensive, stressful, and some of the most popular venues are booked so far in advance that you might need to plan years ahead for your special day.
We made this list to try to put together as much of the key information as possible, like pricing, capacity, locations, and further links, for each venue. It is intended to be a starting point for your research.
Why This Guide Exists
After experiencing the frustration of venue hunting firsthand, we realised that information about Irish wedding venues is scattered across dozens of websites, brochures, and word-of-mouth recommendations. Many venues don't list their pricing openly, making it difficult to budget effectively without endless phone calls and emails.
This comprehensive guide aims to save you time, reduce stress, and help you find the perfect setting for your big day. We've researched over 100 venues across all 32 counties to bring you accurate, up-to-date information all in one place.
What You'll Find Inside
For each venue in our list, we've included:
- A ballpark figure for pricing, either per reception or per person
- Capacity details for both ceremony and reception
- Accommodation information
- The type of venue, e.g. 'Castle', 'Hotel'
- A description of the venue
- A link to the website for contact information and booking process details
