    Good to know when you’re choosing

    • Approved or not? A civil ceremony by an HSE registrar needs an approved venue; religious and humanist solemnisers have more freedom. Every couple must give the HSE at least three months’ notice, so book that appointment early.
    • Book your guests’ rooms early. Rural venues often have few beds nearby on a summer Saturday – use “Stay near” on any venue to find places close by, and book direct for the best rates.
    • Midweek and winter are cheaper. Many venues take a good chunk off Monday–Thursday dates and November to March.
    • Always check the details. Guest numbers, prices and rules come from the venues and wedding directories and change often – confirm everything with the venue before you book.
