Magical Autumn Wedding

There are not enough words to describe how wonderful our wedding was at the stunning Lissanoure Castle. From our first meeting with Emily and Peter we felt very relaxed and their knowledge and passion for Lissanoure was infectious. We knew we were in safe hands with their professional manner and nothing was too much trouble for us to achieve the wedding of our dreams.
We decided on the Coach House for our reception with our ceremony being outside in the beautiful stone building at the side of castle. We had our pictures taken by the lake which was stunning. The Coach House was so cosy with the fires lit and candles flickering, so inviting for our guests to enjoy the drinks reception. Our wedding reception was in the function section of Coach House, the team had taken our flowers from the ceremony into this area to dress the room, it looked so pretty with the candles lit on the tables and window sills. We stayed the night in the castle and our room was gorgeous and so homely, our breakfast basket was amazing, such attention to detail.
Jane and Sarah were our wedding coordinators for the day, they both were brilliant and thought of everything to make the day go without a hitch. Jane was with us until the last guests left and was lovely to be able to sit at the fire with a wee glass of fizz to reflect on our wonderful day.
I can't recommend Lissanoure Castle enough and would love to do it all again!

Highly recommend Lissanoure Castle! It is an absolutely beautiful venue for the reception and photos. Patricia and all the staff were extremely helpful, flexible and accommodating during the entire planning process. On the day we were treated like Royalty from start to finish and they took care of everything. We cannot thank the team at Lissanoure enough for making our day so enjoyable!

We were married at Lissanoure Castle on 25th July 2015 and it was the most beautiful day in every way due in no small part to the absolutely amazing care and attention to detail of Sheryl, Trisha and Amanda along with the rest of the staff. Our wedding was a very moving and bitter-sweet occasion for our family and Lissanoure were so thoughtful and sensitive towards us all. Everything was perfect, nothing was too much trouble and all our family and friends will be talking about it for years to come.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the most perfect wedding day we could have ever wished for.
