Things to Consider when Planning a Wedding in Ireland

Things to Consider when Planning a Wedding in Ireland

Walking down the aisle surrounded by lush greenery and picturesque landscapes in Ireland sounds like the perfect way to say "I do", but it does come with some challenges:

  • Hotels in Ireland are EP (European Plan), which typically means the quoted rate only covers the cost of the room itself, so your meals and drinks will be an additional cost.
  • The flights to Ireland are longer and more expensive from most US and CA vacations. 
  • Wedding packages in Ireland are not all-inclusive, so you'll have to hire each vendor individually (i.e. florist, wedding planner, caterer, photographer, etc.)
  • The overall cost of a destination wedding in Ireland will more than likely be much more expensive than a destination wedding in Mexico or the Caribbean.
