FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

Do you hold more than one wedding a day?

No, we do not! We have a one wedding a day policy. In addition to this, we offer full, exclusive, Castle Hire for your wedding. This means no other event will be happening on the Castle grounds during your wedding day. 

Are you able to give us vendor recommendations?

Of course! We are happy to provide contact details for vendors that are trusted by us and/or have worked in the venue before. All you need to do is ask your wedding coordinator what you are looking for, and they will provide a list. 

Would I be able to have a rehearsal day the night before as well as a celebration the day after our wedding?

Definitely! We specialise in multiday weddings. We can offer night before wedding rehearsals with your close family and then day two celebrations which could include a barbecue and a pig on a spit! That's one of the best things about getting married in Slane Castle, we can accommodate most requests, and we have plenty of event spaces to make your day special. 

Do you cater for couples that do not live in Ireland?

 Of course we do! We have many past and present wedding couples who come from all over the world including, America, Japan, Canada, and the UK. We work with and around the time schedules to ensure your wedding planning experience with us is no different to that of people who live close by!

Have you had any celebrity guest or wedding at your venue?

Shhhhh, we can't tell you that, it's a secret.................
