How our fees work

Our planning fees are always covered in your wedding package. They are set based on the typical effort and level of responsibility each service takes to organise, and not as a percentage of your budget, i.e. a bigger budget does not mean a bigger fee for us.

Your wedding at Castle Leslie

Dubbed as Europe’s Most Romantic Hotel, this secluded wedding castle in Monaghan is the venue for you if you want a luxurious ambiance for your intimate destination wedding in Ireland. This wedding spot is a 1000-acre estate with three charming lakes, its own family church, an equestrian center, and an evergreen landscape. It became most popular in 2002 when Paul McCartney and Heather Mills got married in its religious sanctuary called the St Salvator's Church, followed by a banquet for 300 along the castle grounds.

Ceremony

The magnificent castle is full of old-world grandeur and character and can accommodate wedding parties with up to 70 guests. For larger wedding parties, The Pavilion at castle estate is a delightful space overlooking Glaslough Lake, which can accommodate up to 260 guests. Minimum numbers apply for weekends, bank holidays and peak dates throughout the year. (Please note Castle option is available on midweek dates only)

If you’re having an elopement for two in Ireland or a small wedding with up to 20 guests, choose any spot along the garden or in the parkland where you can hold a symbolic wedding ceremony. If you prefer a religious and legally-binding wedding, say your vows at the St. Salvator's Church which is also inside the estate. For an indoor and weather-proof ceremony, the main building is available for you. Its function room inside can accommodate up to 100 guests.

Photoshoot

After the ceremony, have your photos taken along the Dream Lake that features an artificial island. Your photographer can also take you to the forest, the parkland, the gardens, or in front of the main castle for a glorious photo shoot.

Accommodation

This destination wedding venue has over 90 rooms in total where you and your guests can stay for the night. The main castle has 21 individually designed rooms with the majority having no radios or televisions for a genuine vacation experience. The fully restored Old Stable Mews has more rooms, offering a more homey ambiance. The third property called The Lodge has 50 bedrooms in total which are also available for your stay here.

Reception

Enjoy an intimate dinner with your friends and family in one of the venue’s function rooms. Extend the celebration to the venue’s exclusive bar inside.
