A traditional wedding never dates. It is the classic Irish celebration, with a church or formal ceremony, a warm welcome, a fine meal and dancing late into the night, done with elegance and care.

Traditional weddings, answered
Is a traditional wedding more formal?
Usually a little, following the classic running order with speeches and a formal meal. But formality is yours to set, and a traditional shape can still feel warm and relaxed.
Do we need a church for a traditional wedding?
Not at all. Many couples have a religious ceremony, but civil and humanist ceremonies fit a traditional celebration just as well. The style is about the whole day, not only the ceremony.
What venues work best?
Established hotels, manor houses and castles with experienced teams tend to deliver a traditional day most smoothly, with the space and hospitality that classic celebrations rely on.
