For the team at The Heritage, every wedding is a unique celebration. The team loves sharing stories of the memorable moments that make each event special. Marketing Manager, Jennifer Brew, recalls the following highlights: “All our weddings are memorable in their own ways – like Nacho the dog being ring-bearer for his paw-rents’ Aoife and Mark’s wedding; two brides having a guard of honour from their Irish Army colleagues as they left their civil ceremony on site; stunning staircase shots of couples and their guests (our staircase makes the perfect backdrop to those group photos); to name but a few.
To ensure your day is as perfect as you’ve always imagined, The Heritage‘s experienced team offers their sage advice: “Take 10 minutes to yourselves after you arrive at the hotel.” This precious moment allows you to savour a drink and some nibbles together, catch up on the day so far, and celebrate your marriage in an intimate, private setting before rejoining your wedding party.
