Ardgillan Castle Weddings
Ardgillan Castle and Demesne is my favourite local venue for weddings. Over the years, I’ve curated a collection of enchanting locations scattered throughout the Castle and its surrounding Gardens that make beautiful memories and timeless photos.
Unveiling the Beauty of Ardgillan Castle as a Wedding Venue
Ardgillan Castle and Demesne is a cherished gem of Ireland, tucked away in its picturesque setting in Fingal betwixt Skerries and Balbriggan. In fact in Skerries (if you ask anyone from Skerries. Or in Balbriggan, if you ask anyone from Balbriggan.) As your local wedding photographer, I’ve had the privilege of capturing the magic of countless weddings within the enchanting embrace of Ardgillan Castle. Here’s why it’s a dream wedding venue:
Romantic Backdrop for Your Special Day
Ardgillan Castle sets the stage for a romantic and unforgettable wedding day. The elegant castle provides the perfect backdrop for couples who seek a civil wedding ceremony with a touch of grandeur.
Spectacular Parklands and Gardens
Nestled in spectacular parklands overlooking the Irish Sea, Ardgillan Demesne boasts a wealth of natural beauty. Its meticulously groomed gardens include a walled garden, rose garden, potentilla garden, and a magnificent herbaceous border – all offering a vibrant tapestry of colours that provide a unique breathtaking backdrop for your wedding photographs.
Opulent Castle Drawing Room
Ardgillan’s wedding ceremonies take place in the opulent atmosphere of the castle’s Drawing Room.
This room is adorned with period features, exquisite paintings, historical artifacts, and lavish decorations.
It offers a stunning view of the demesne’s front elevation and the Irish Sea. As you exchange vows, the conservatory provides a luxurious frame of foliage for a ceremony that’s both intimate and opulent.
Exclusive Photo Opportunities
Your wedding guests can also revel in the lavish surroundings of the entrance hall and the Dining Room, both of which make for amazing backdrops for capturing cherished moments. Beyond its gardens, the stunning surroundings at Ardgillan Castle provide unique photo opportunities to immortalise your special day.
Ardgillan Castle Library
Entering the library through one of its secret doors, you’ll step into a room where time has stood still, surrounded by walls lined with antiquated tomes. It’s a captivating space which lends itself to novel wedding photos (see what I did there?) and further enriches the story (okay, I’ll stop.) of your Ardgillan Wedding.
A Fairytale Setting
Step outside and you’ll discover stunning sea views from the front of the castle. With an enchanted forest on one side, a row of cypress trees leading to a formal rose garden on the other, and traditional walled gardens nearby, Ardgillan Castle truly is a fairytale wedding location and a photographer’s dream.
