As a wedding photographer, nothing beats exploring new wedding venues while traveling the world. I love seeing the unique venues and traditions in other parts of the country and on different continents. This week, we’re excited to bring you a roundup of our five favorite Ireland destination wedding venues, all discovered during recent adventures.

Ireland Destination Wedding Venues

Are you considering a destination wedding in Ireland? If so, we couldn’t be more thrilled for you. After all, Ireland is one of the most beautiful landscapes, and we’ve had the pleasure of shooting there a handful of times now, from County Cork to the Cliffs of Moher.

Luttrellstown Castle

We loved our two editorials at Luttrellstown Castle. During our last visit to this luxury event venue, we had the honor of shooting an engagement session and a wedding editorial. Being part of this day was a joy, and we loved every corner of this stunning, elegant estate.

Adare Manor

The Adare Manor is a true gem, and we loved our visit. With beautiful, lush gardens and all the natural light you could ever dream of from its endless windows, these are just a few of the details that make this the ideal venue for either an extensive wedding or an intimate elopement.

Mount Juliet Estate

Mount Juliet Estate took our breath away. As a gardener, this venue was perfection. I’m still thinking about the climbing vines wrapping this gorgeous estate in lush greenery. We can’t wait to revisit this stunning space.

Gloster House

Gloster House, of course, made the list of our top five favorite wedding venues in Ireland. The estate feels like a dream come true, with its sprawling gardens and cozy interiors. If you’re looking for the perfect space to say “I do” in Ireland, then this West Ireland venue is perfection.

Ashford Castle

No roundup of the perfect wedding venues in Ireland would be complete without including Ashford Castle. This regal estate is drenched in splendor and intentional details. So, if you’re looking for the perfect space to say “I do” in Ireland, then this West Ireland venue is absolute perfection.

You can find the incredible creative team for our Romantic and Moody Cliffs of Moher session here. Our Quintessential Irish Engagement session at Luttrells Town Castle is linked here. If you’re looking for our Timeless Autumn Wedding at Lutrellstown Castle in Dublin, it’s linked here!

Looking ahead, our goal for 2025 and 2026 is to cross all these fantastic venues off our dream venue list. So, if they’re on yours too, don’t hesitate to reach out, and together we can create the most magical experience for your big day!
