Romantic Ireland

Why? Well, for a start, the variety is outstanding: secret valleys, deserted white-sand beaches, traditional Irish-speaking islands, and wild romantic hills swathed in heather. These are landscapes that have inspired poets and thinkers, novelists and musicians such as WB Yeats, Paul Henry and Enya, and couples from all over the world continue to be drawn to savour their drama, grace and beauty. Filmmakers adore Ireland as a location, especially for romantic movies including Far and Away, Once, Circle of Friends and PS I Love You. And from the wilds of the Sperrins to the soft green hills of County Wicklow and the showstopping drama of Sheep’s Head in West Cork, discovering your own cinematic backdrop is as easy as can be.

Wonderful wedding venues

But it’s not just about the scene-stealing landscapes – what sets Ireland apart as a wedding and civil partnership destination is the warmth of the people, the ability to throw a legendary party and the unique brilliance of the venues. Imagine saying ‘I do’ in the candle-lit vaulted 12th-century crypt of Christ Church Cathedral – Dublin’s spiritual heart. Or how about delving into a bit of Celtic mysticism and tying the knot outside at an ancient Celtic site on the ruggedly beautiful Aran Islands. Fancy a bit of old-world charm? Well, book yourself into the 17th-century Belle Isle Castle (pictured) overlooking one of the most romantic parts of Northern Ireland: Lough Erne. There are incredible castles all over the island to choose from (favoured by celebrities such as Dita Von Teese, Paul McCartney and the Beckhams). And with blazing log fires, a traditional banquet feast, and a fantastic swirling céilí to finish the night off, a castle wedding in Ireland guarantees an experience to remember.

Iconic sites to tie the knot

Of course, some couples like to think seriously big when it comes to making an impact. It’s no surprise then that some of Ireland’s most dramatic spots, such as the Cliffs of Moher in County Clare and Mussenden Temple in County Londonderry are sought-after locations to tie the knot. You can even have a wedding on your very own private island, with incredible one-of-a-kind spots such as Inishturkbeg, Inishbeg and the intriguingly named Lusty Beg!

Heavenly honeymoons

Best of all, if you have your wedding or civil partnership in Ireland, you have a perfect love-story destination on your doorstep – a blissful location for your honeymoon, whether you want to a take a hip city break in Dublin, Cork or Belfast, or escape from it all in an award-winning resort, such as Donegal’s Lough Eske Castle, the Lough Erne Resort (pictured) or Monart Destination Spa. One thing’s for sure: you’ll never want to leave…
