Perfect overseas wedding
We planned an overseas wedding, which made everything a little more difficult as we weren't familiar with vendors. The team at Belleek Castle made everything so easy for us, helping us find the perfect band, photographer, and accommodations for the guests. They handled everything, so that our guests and bridal party simply got to enjoy themselves. As the bride and groom, we were able to just focus on enjoying ourselves. Everyone who attended said it was the most fun they'd ever had at a wedding.

Small Wedding
We had a small family-only wedding with the ceremony in the castle and Eva went out of her way to make this day so special for us. She offered her advice on each aspect of the day without pressuring us and helped us with all of the planning, we really felt she went above and beyond for us and her demeanor throughout was so warm and professional. The venue itself is spectacular. There wasn't a single thing about the day that we would've changed with the exception of the weather!

Most Fantastic Wedding
We had the most fantastic wedding ceremony and celebrations in Belleek! The Stables, where we held the ceremony, is the most beautiful rustic space and was the absolute perfect location for our service. The food was delicious and each of our guests spoke so highly of the service and all of the staff on the day – they all really made the difference! The atmosphere throughout the whole Castle really is so magical and gave us such a wonderful backdrop for the day.

Great Staff
We had our wedding here on New Years Eve and it was brilliant. Everyone of our guests loved the venue as it has so many interesting features, the food was fantastic and guests in particular enjoyed the drunken bullock - not a bad word about the food- which is amazing for a wedding meal!!I highly compliment Eva and all of her team for being so polite and relaxed on the day, whilst making the day run on time and smoothly.

The best Castle staff
The wedding team in Belleek Castle could not have been more helpful since we first booked our wedding. They remained in regular contact with us and facilitated all of our needs. On the day itself, they could not have been better. All staff ensured that they assisted where possible to make sure that everything was stress free. The venue itself is absolutely stunning, the castle, the rooms and the grounds, so picturesque. And the food is amazing, especially the Drunken Bullock.
