    An exceptional venue!

    From the moment we set foot in Ballinacurra House we knew it was the ideal wedding venue for us. The interior of the house is so unique, charming and full of character. We were lucky enough to have our ceremony outside and the grounds are spectacular. All our amazing photos were taken on site. It was more that we could have hoped for.
    All the staff are so attentive and professional and made us feel at home from the beginning. From day one Orela helped us every step of the way. Nothing was a problem and she was always on hand to offer some advice and guidance. She made our lives so stress -free and as a result we enjoyed every second of the day. We trusted her implicitly and she didn’t disappoint! Her attention to detail is second to none.
    There was huge transparency when it came to the budget which meant no surprises at checkout. The day was tailormade to suit our budget and tweaked to our needs.
    The food is exceptional, what you would expect of a fine dining restaurant. We had been to a tasting day beforehand so lots of attention went into choosing the menu with advice available from the head chef David. We decided to go for the four-course tasting menu which was delicious! All our guests with dietary requirements were well catered for. We decided to go for midnight pizzas and they went down a treat. The Cuban cocktail bar was a huge hit and the bar staff were fantastic. James is super, such a pleasure to deal with. Our families and friends were hugely complimentary on the whole day which was fantastic to hear.
    We would definitely recommend Ballinacurra House for your wedding or any special occasion. It’s a hidden gem!

    Quality & Expertise

    Couldn’t have been happier with our choice of wedding venue. Ballinacurra is a beautiful property, the food was incredible, the location perfect, but what really sets this place apart is the staff. The level of attention and expertise you get at Ballinacurra is second to none, from the planning process to every little detail on the day itself. Everyone had a ball, thanks Ballinacurra!

    Best day possible

    We had our wedding there on 8th September 2018. The custom, professionalism and service of the staff was second to none. We had to ask for very little as everything was thought of and attended to with such ease. It felt like you were a guest in their home.

    When planning a venue, like anywhere else, you have to be careful with your budget, and, because Ballinacurra House offers so much extra, you have to be very careful with your spending. Like most venues, there are hidden costs and it is very important that if you would like to do something, fully explore all pricing.

    4 months on from our wedding and I would safely say, if I was to do it all over again, I would change nothing and I would choose Ballinacurra House every time.

    Simply Outstanding!

    Fantastic experience from start to finish for our wedding in Aug 2018. From the very first contact staff at Ballinacurra were prompt in their responses, super helpful and personable yet professional. We booked Ballinacurra without ever having even visited, as we live abroad. This also meant that we had an 8 hour time difference to contend with but our coordinator Orela was brilliant and we managed everything smoothly via emails and Skype calls.
    The venue is absolutely stunning and we loved the fact that it is an exclusive hire venue. If you want to hold the ceremony at the venue there are lots of beautiful location options both indoors and outdoors. The food was delicious, service staff were great and the on site accommodation is amazingly unique. I would thoroughly recommend this venue to any couple planning a wedding in Ireland.

    WOW what an amazing venue!

    If you’re considering Ballinacurra House for your wedding, think no more and get booking, you will not regret it! We cannot recommend Ballinacurra House enough. This is an amazing venue with awesome food and an outstanding team that will make your day more special than you could’ve dreamed. We met Des who made us feel that this was the right venue for us but we had no idea at that stage just how special the entire experience would be. We organised our wedding from abroad and Orela made planning our three days there very easy for us. From the moment we arrived on the Thursday, Orela, Elaine, James, Paul and the team made us feel at home for the entire weekend to the point where the team knew the names of all our guests and their relation to us, a beautiful touch that our guests are still talking about. The food throughout the weekend was second to none, from the canape’s to our four course wedding meal through to the late night pizzas and posh bacon butties - thank you chef David and his team. Nothing was too difficult for this team, who were attentive, accommodating, fun and effortlessly made our wedding day and in fact our entire weekend one that ourselves and our guests will never forget. You will not get this experience at any hotel or cookie cutter wedding venue – this is a unique and special place with awesome people. I cannot thank everyone at Ballinacurra House enough for exceeding all expectations and making what we thought would be really good, absolutely amazing!
    Tony and Merle – September 2017.

    what an amazing venue

    We planned our wedding from Australia and knew we wanted to get married in Ireland. Having spent some time looking at the options available we came across Ballinacurra, what lucky find. from the first contact we have been nothing but impressed with Orela, Des and the rest of the team. They were amazing at making us feel like the only people having their wedding at the venue. this continued right through to us leaving the venue the day after our wedding, when we were shocked to find out there was another wedding the day after ours - we would never have guessed as the service and attention from the team at the house was 100% focused on making us have the best day we could possibly have.
    From the moment we arrived at the house we were all made to feel 100% welcome which helped everyone relax and feel 'at home' which continued throughout he whole wedding.
    We couldn't have asked for a better team supporting us and they made our plans come to life in the most incredible way which gave us a truely unique and memorable way.
    We can't thank them or praise them highly enough. theres isn't anything that we would say is a watch out, if you're going for a private, exclusive use venue, this is the one.

    Nikki and Damian

    First of all I wanted to say how the House and Grounds we everything we had every hope for and we couldn't have asked for better . The setting was so beautiful and breathtaking every time one of our guest drove up the drive to the house seeing their faces and hearing their comments made very minute of the whole experience worth it.
    From the moment we arrived on the Friday July 3rd the welcome reception we received was outstanding from Declan & Elaine and Orela and all the staff they truly were second to none . It didn't matter what we asked it was never a problem and there was very little we had to ask for everything and every detail was in hand . The preparation that Orela had put in before made everything run so smoothly with no stress or fuss and for that we cannot thank you enough . Declan was beyond a gentleman and every single guest remarked at how helpful kind and truly great he was his attention to us was fantastic. Elaine is someone that every guest also is talking about every single morning she greeted every single guest by name with a smile it truly is a remarkable gift to remember everyone's name to make everyone feel so comfortable and welcomed.

    On behalf of myself and Damian we want to thank you so much for the most memorable magical wedding it was beyond our hopes and dreams and we want to thank from the bottom of our hearts for making it so special . I believe some of my family have written too which is so nice to hear .

    Thank you for everything.

    Cathal and Ciara

    Hope you're well - getting into the next event after last week's madness no doubt.

    Just wanted to drop you another note now that we've had a chance to relax, recover from and reflect on last weekend.

    We truly had an amazing weekend and that was due in no small part to you and the team at Ballinacurra. Everything was just perfect - venue, food, staff and service, setup, accommodation, day 2 BBQ, (even weather) - absolutely top class. The amount of comments / compliments we've had from people since has been amazing.

    So, we just wanted to take the time to thank you again for everything that helped make last weekend so wonderful. You responsiveness and attention to detail were superb and so thanks for everything.
