Most of your wedding guests will likely reserve a room at the venue if you're getting married there so they can stumble up to bed once the party is over.

From Northern Ireland’s imposing castles and stately homes to the Chic hotels in the city center of Belfast you will not be short of options to ensure your guests are well looked after and get a great nights sleep. No matter where you choose to get married it’s worth doing your research and including some local information for your guests that might be traveling from out of town including taxi numbers and a range of accommodation choices at different price points.
