I am just so excited to finally sit down and compile a list of who we believe are some of the best Ireland wedding vendors for destination weddings. We just recently got back home from an incredible two week experience in Ireland shooting multiple weddings and working with the BEST group of vendors I could ever imagine working with. And I'm so ready to share them with you so that you will hopefully get to work with them as well! Don't forget to reach out if you have any questions at all, scroll to the bottom of this post for an easy contact form. Each vendor's Instagram or website will be tagged so you can easily connect with them!

The Best Ireland Wedding Vendors for Destination Weddings

Hair:

I have two different options for you to choose from for hair and some of one of these guys also do makeup as well. ANY of these choices will absolutely make you feel like your best self. I've worked hands on with both of them and can truly say what an amazing job they do. Each of my clients were just over the moon thrilled with their final results.

Debbie Mckibbin: Debbie has an incredible, fun and outgoing personality. She also does bridal makeup as well so she's a great combo stylist who - https://www.instagram.com/debbie.mckibbin/

Scott Oreilly- Scott is such a kind human being who kept us laughing the entire day. He's so talented and you'll love his demeanor and his work! https://www.instagram.com/scottaoreilly/

Venues:

The absolute hardest part about International wedding planning is finding your venue. It's IMPOSSIBLE to decide when you can't see them in person and tour them before making your final decision. That's why you have to trust us when we say we found two of the BEST Ireland wedding venues you could even imagine finding. Both are located in County, Meath- so just a short drive from the Dublin airport.

Loughcrew Estate: Loughcrew is the embodiment of historical and vintage luxury. The old church ruins are covered in gorgeous ivy, making it a truly magical place to exchange vows. If you are imagining that perfect Ireland castle wedding venue, this would be the place to consider. You can also read much more about Loughcrew weddings in our recent post here. And you can find their Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/loughcrewweddings/

The Clonabreany House: The Clonabreany brings a special kind of luxury that you just won't find anywhere else in Ireland. The housing alone is a huge plus, sleeping 80 people so you don't have to minimize your guest list. It's an upscale, luxury estate venue in the Irish countryside- and something you would imagine on the cover of Italian Vogue Weddings. To see more photos and read a little more about the space, click here to see a recent post of ours. Or you can view their Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/clonabreany/

We have personally visited and photographed weddings at both of these venues, so we can speak from experience when we say you will receive nothing but the absolute best experience possible if you choose either one of these spots!

Makeup:

Although we loved our time in Ireland, I cannot tell you how HUMID it was while we visited in June. I don't think I wore makeup a single time because it was just so wet outside and it just slid right off my face. That's why it's so important to find someone well versed in doing makeup professionally for your wedding day.

Debbie Mckibbin: Debbie has an incredible, fun and outgoing personality. She also does bridal makeup as well so she's a great combo stylist who - https://www.instagram.com/debbie.mckibbin/

Laura Devides: I met Laura through an Instagram message and I'm so glad I did. She is SO talented and absolutely stunned us when we worked with her last June - https://www.instagram.com/lauradevidesmakeup/

Wedding Planners

Aside from photography (I may be biased), finding a wedding planner who can make sure that you have the day you've always dreamed of is so important. Planning a wedding overseas is a special kind of stressful, take it from me. We planned several different sessions with multiple vendors on our last trip to Ireland- between the Instagram messages and the Zoom meetings working around the different time zones, I needed 5 separate Google Documents to keep things organized.

Rachel with Inspired Events Ireland: Rachel GETS THINGS DONE, and that's probably an understatement. We had a blast working with her and she went above and beyond for our couple- https://www.instagram.com/inspiredeventsireland/

Daragh the Ireland Wedding Planner: Daragh left us a little speechless with how wonderfully he handled the day. He was always two steps ahead of everything we needed and our bride and groom were absolutely floored with his work. He's also a legal officiant so that's a huge plus when looking for someone to help plan your wedding! - https://www.instagram.com/ireland_wedding_planner_/

Florists:

I've got three florists for you to choose from here because I loved working with them all so much that I couldn't dare just pick one. Florals were SO important to me as a bride and they are still something that I just love to photograph as an Ireland wedding photographer. I always find myself shooting one too many film photos of the bouquets or floral arch. So trust me when I tell you that I would only recommend the best of the best to your for your own wedding day.

O'reilly Flowers- Simple, chic and classic would be the words I would use to describe their work. They do absolutely stunning work and we were just blown away at how fantastic the flowers held up in the Irish humidity- https://www.instagram.com/oreillyflowers/

Elmgrove Irish Flower Farm- If you are imagining a very wildflower, picked straight from the garden type of bouquet, these guys would be a perfect match for your wedding vendor team. They own a sweet family farm where they handpick all their florals and design your bouquet personally- https://www.instagram.com/elmgroveirishflowerfarm/

VP Flowers- This floral vendor might be your choice if you are wanting something more luxurious feeling. We couldn't believe how incredible the floral arch was that was at the wedding we worked together- https://www.instagram.com/vp_flowers/

Stationery

Sarah Jo Design: Technically this vendor is not Irish and is located in the states, but that doesn't matter when hiring a stationery vendor! Luckily, Sarah can mail your invites to your door no matter what state you are in. She's located in North Carolina (same as me, so consider me lucky!). Sarah is incredibly talented and truly makes your wedding invitations feel like a little piece of luxury. We highly recommend her- https://www.instagram.com/sarahjo_design/
