SWEET BLOSSOMS & SOMETHING BLUE: MICHELLE + DECLAN AT THE SHAMRO

Where there is tea, there is love. This bride and groom’s wedding cake was mad as a hatter! A wonderful delight to the eyes, with an insane level of creativity.

From our visit to see the venue to the wedding day itself, it was a very enjoyable and hassle-free experience. Despite the unpredictable Irish weather, we wished for an outdoor ceremony at the venue - The Shamrock Lodge came up trumps. The garden was laid out beautifully for us, and there was a

backup plan in case the sun did not shine. After our ceremony, the drinks and canopies reception was laid out beautifully and catered for all dietary requests. It was really important to both of us to have our wedding day at a venue that is well renowned for its great wedding dinners. The Shamrock Lodge did not disappoint; our guests really enjoyed the starters, soup (a big hit), lemon sole and beef dessert and, of course, the great wine that accompanied the food. The management and staff did a fantastic job with both the outdoor and indoor decor and thought of everything. The service was second to none. Paddy, Warren, Alan and Doireann were constantly available and made sure everything ran smoothly on the day. The fact that we were able to have our ceremony and reception at The Shamrock Lodge meant that it was seamless for guests to get from one to the other. Many of our guests stayed the night, and all highly rated the rooms, service and breakfast. The personal touch of a family-run business cannot be beaten.

The Shamrock Lodge was the only hotel where we could celebrate our wedding. Being a family-run hotel makes it even more special. Paddy, Alan, Warren, Doireann and all the amazing staff couldn't do enough for us in preparation for our wedding day and on the day itself. No ask was too big or too

I want to thank you for making our wedding day so so special. It wasnt just the day that was special, it was at every transaction with every staff member, every phone call and every email before and after that we had with your hotel. I can honestly say that your customer experience, personal touch,

genuine care for your customers and the love you all have for a family run hotel is what makes you stand out by a country mile! Even when I think of the Shamrock Lodge now I get a lovely warm feeling.

We absolutely loved everything about our time with you for our wedding day. Your dedication, passion and attention to detail eliminated all the stress of planning a wedding with 2 small children and this was a MASSIVE point for us.

We felt really at home with the care and hospitality you gave us, our families and guests. You took such good care of us.

The food was absolutely beautiful, and everyone commented on it. You really looked after our 2 very sensitive coeliacs, one of whom was my mother-in-law, so that was excellent!

In our thank-you speech on the day, we spoke of how coming to the Lodge was like coming home to family. The Shamrock Lodge Hotel and the staff, Mary, Alan, Doireann, Lorna, Raj, and everyone else made our day perfect.

The attention to detail, care, and consideration everyone gave was amazing.

They gave us the much-needed reassurance and calmness when we were most anxious about wedding preparations.

The day was flawless, perfect and memorable. The food was delicious, the staff friendly, and the management on the ball with every one of our wishes, big or small, catered for.

Thanks for the amazing day.
