Everything you need to know about weddings in Dublin

Dublin offers a remarkable variety of hotel wedding venues to match any couple's style. The city is rich with options, from the timeless elegance of Georgian townhouses in areas like Merrion Square to contemporary luxury hotels overlooking the Grand Canal. You can find everything from intimate boutique hotels perfect for smaller gatherings to grand, historic establishments capable of hosting lavish celebrations.

  • City Centre: Ideal for a vibrant, cosmopolitan wedding with easy access for guests.
  • Coastal Suburbs: Locations like Howth or Dalkey offer stunning sea views and a more relaxed atmosphere.
  • Country Estates: Just outside the city, find sprawling hotels with beautiful grounds for photos.

Opting for a hotel wedding in Dublin comes with significant advantages. Primarily, hotels offer an all-in-one solution, providing spaces for your ceremony, reception, and guest accommodation under one roof. This convenience is a major stress-reducer during planning.

Most Dublin hotels have experienced, in-house wedding coordinators dedicated to making your day seamless. They are experts on the venue's capabilities and often have strong relationships with local suppliers, ensuring every detail is perfectly executed.

The cost of a hotel wedding in Dublin can vary widely based on the venue's prestige, the day of the week, and the time of year. On average, you can expect per-person package prices to range from €80 to over €180.

What's typically included?

  • A multi-course wedding breakfast
  • A welcome reception with drinks and canapés
  • Wine with the meal and a toast drink
  • Evening food for guests
  • Room hire for the reception
  • The bridal suite for the wedding night

Always review packages carefully to understand the full offering.

Factors Influencing Cost:

  • Guest Count: The single biggest factor affecting your total spend.
  • Season: Summer Saturdays are premium dates. Consider an off-season or midweek wedding for better value.
  • Customisation: Upgraded menus, wine selections, or décor will add to the base price.

Potential Extra Costs:

  • Service charges (often 10-15%)
  • Corkage fees, if you bring your own wine (though less common with hotel packages)
  • Supplier meals and accommodation for your band or photographer

Dublin is beautiful year-round, but each season offers a different atmosphere for a hotel wedding.

  • Spring (March-May): Fresh blooms and brighter days. Hotel gardens, like those at the InterContinental or Castleknock Hotel, are particularly stunning.
  • Summer (June-August): The most popular season, with long daylight hours perfect for photos and drinks receptions on a hotel terrace.
  • Autumn (September-November): Rich colours and a cosy atmosphere. Ideal for elegant indoor celebrations in hotels with grand fireplaces and warm décor.
  • Winter (December-February): A magical time for a city wedding, with festive lights and a celebratory mood.

The beauty of a hotel venue is its reliability, no matter the unpredictable Irish weather.

Ensuring your guests have a wonderful experience is simple with a Dublin hotel wedding. The city is exceptionally well-connected, served by Dublin Airport with direct flights from across the globe. Heuston and Connolly train stations link the capital to the rest of Ireland.

Most hotels offer preferential accommodation rates for wedding guests, making their stay easy and comfortable. For guests extending their trip, a city-centre hotel provides the perfect base to explore iconic landmarks like Trinity College, Temple Bar, and the Guinness Storehouse.

The in-house wedding coordinator is your greatest asset when planning a hotel wedding. They are your primary point of contact and will guide you through every decision, from finalising the menu at a tasting to creating a timeline for the day itself. Their expertise is invaluable in ensuring a smooth and stress-free experience.

Hotels in Dublin are renowned for their high culinary standards. You'll typically work with the executive chef to tailor a menu that reflects your tastes, with options to accommodate all dietary requirements for your guests.

While hotels provide the core elements, you'll still be working with external suppliers like florists, photographers, and entertainment.

Many Dublin hotels have a list of 'recommended' or 'preferred' suppliers. These are professionals who have worked at the venue before, know the space, and have a good relationship with the hotel staff. While you are rarely obligated to use them, it can make the planning process much smoother. Always clarify the hotel's policy on external suppliers before booking.

FAQ's

What is the average cost per guest for a hotel wedding in Dublin?

The average cost per person for a hotel wedding package in Dublin typically ranges from €80 to €180+. This price is influenced by the hotel's star rating, the day of the week, the season, and the specific inclusions of the wedding package.

Can we hold both our wedding ceremony and reception in the same Dublin hotel?

Yes, absolutely. Most Dublin hotels are licensed to host civil ceremonies and partnerships. They typically offer a separate, dedicated space for the ceremony before moving your guests to a different area for the reception, providing a seamless experience for everyone.

How far in advance should we book a hotel wedding venue in Dublin?

For popular Dublin hotels, especially for a Saturday during the peak summer months, it is advisable to book 12 to 18 months in advance. For off-peak dates or weekday weddings, you may find more flexibility with a shorter lead time.

Do Dublin hotel wedding packages typically include accommodation for guests?

Wedding packages almost always include a complimentary suite for the marrying couple on their wedding night. For guests, hotels will typically offer a block of rooms at a discounted rate, which your guests can then book directly.

Are there noise restrictions for wedding entertainment in Dublin hotels?

Yes, most hotels, particularly those in residential areas or with other guests staying, will have a cut-off time for live music, often around midnight or 1 am. This is a crucial detail to confirm with the venue before you book your band or DJ.

What happens if our guest numbers change after we book the hotel?

Hotels are accustomed to guest numbers fluctuating. Your contract will specify a date by which you need to provide final numbers, usually a few weeks before the wedding. It will also outline the minimum number of guests you will be charged for, so be sure to review this policy.
