Destination weddings have gained immense popularity in recent years, and if green rolling countryside dotted with castles and quaint pubs sound like the kind of backdrop you’d like to welcome your nearest and dearest, what better place to exchange vows than the breathtaking landscapes of Ireland?

Back in April we set out on a luxury Irish venue reconnaissance mission with Kerry Jeanne Photography and our very first stop (straight off the plane in Kerry’s case) was this stunning spot.

Among the numerous enchanting venues in the country, Luttrellstown Castle stands out as a remarkable choice for couples seeking a fairytale wedding experience with the convenience of being only a mere twenty minutes drive from the Dublin airport. Nestled in the heart of the Dublin countryside, this historic castle offers an idyllic setting that blends old-world charm with modern luxury.

Luttrellstown Castle, dating back to the 15th century, exudes a rich heritage and grandeur that sets the stage for an extraordinary wedding celebration. The castle's architecture, with its elegant turrets and lush gardens, creates a romantic ambiance, making it a dream venue for couples longing for a fairytale wedding experience (no wonder Posh and Becks chose the castle as their wedding venue). As destination wedding planners, the highlights of the venue (in our minds) include:

  1. Exquisite Surroundings and Breathtaking Views: Located on a sprawling 560-acre estate, Luttrellstown Castle offers total privacy and stunning views of the Irish countryside, providing a picturesque backdrop for wedding ceremonies and celebrations. From the meticulously manicured gardens to the serene lakeside, every corner of this estate offers breathtaking beauty. The interior event spaces are bright, good sized and feature stunning original details and soft colors.

Additionally, the estate offers exclusive amenities such as a golf course, horseback riding, and a private cinema, ensuring that every moment spent at Luttrellstown is filled with joy and relaxation.

  3. Tailor-Made Wedding Packages: Luttrellstown Castle takes pride in offering personalized wedding packages tailored to meet the unique preferences of each couple. The castle is rented by the night, so you can choose the length of your stay.

  4. Convenient Location and Accessibility: Situated just a short drive from Dublin's city center, Luttrellstown Castle offers the perfect balance of tranquility and accessibility. The castle's proximity to Dublin International Airport makes it convenient for both local and international guests (or vendors!), allowing them to easily reach this enchanting destination.

  5. Local experiences on the property: Luttrellstown Castle offers more than just a stunning backdrop for weddings. The estate provides a range of activities and experiences for couples and their guests, including spa treatments, whiskey tastings, falconry displays, and guided tours of the castle's historical treasures.

  6. Hair and Makeup Studio: by 2024 the charming grounds keeper cottage in the photos below will feature a full blown beauty studio available for the wedding party to use on the wedding morning.

For couples dreaming of an enchanting destination wedding, Luttrellstown Castle in Ireland offers a magical setting that surpasses expectations. With its historical charm, breathtaking surroundings, luxurious accommodations, and impeccable service, this castle provides an unforgettable experience for couples and their loved ones.
