Eccles Hotel & Spa makes for a fabulous wedding venue.

A winter wedding wonderland

The Eccles Hotel & Spa in Glengarriff is what winter wedding dreams are made of.

While being an ideal wedding venue for every month of the year, we can’t help but fantasize about what winter weddings have to offer. Think of the open fires, candles decorating the room, hot drinks to warm your hands, and the all-around cosy atmosphere that comes with the dream winter wedding.

If you are one of the lucky guests to be attending a wedding during the winter months, you will be sure to indulge in many of these lovely moments and décor additions. But if you have the honour to be a guest invited to a wedding at the Eccles Hotel this winter, you are in for a treat.

Speaking with the wedding coordinator at the Eccles, Marie Dooley, she said: “The winter weddings still provide you with the gorgeous view overlooking Bantry Bay, and when you enter the hotel reception, you’ll have 2 roaring fires so your lovely and warm. You can indulge in mulled wine or hot whiskey on arrival as a part of your drinks reception, and between the terrace views and the open fires, you have gorgeous opportunities for family photos.”

If you’re a soon to be bride or groom and getting a start on the 2023 planning, why not opt for the colder quieter months rather than in the midst of the summer hustle and bustle?

Marie said: “November is my favourite month for weddings, between the open fires and the candles everywhere I just love it. I like how November is usually quite a quiet month for most people, before the lead up to Christmas.”

The Eccles Hotel can and will provide you with a great wedding experience. Marie would be your contact with the hotel, helping you through the entire process and would be there on hand throughout your big day.

And just to make your day even more special, the Eccles Hotel has completely refurbished its Bridal Suite. Whether you’re getting ready or spending your wedding night in the suite, the new renovations have created a magical and romantic space for the happy couple.

“There have been so many couples to get married here at the Eccles, and I have so many fond memories from every wedding for different reasons.

“One of my favourite parts of the experience is just to greet the bride and groom on their big day. It’s just so special,” Marie added.

To present everything they have to offer, the Eccles Hotel are having a wedding showcase on 20 November. Go and view the stunning Ilnaculln ballroom and see the newly refurbished bridal suite and all the hotel has to provide for you on your day.

So, if you are in the thick of wedding planning and have yet to nail down the perfect venue, now is the time to put the Eccles Hotel & Spa on your list. Get in touch with Marie and let the Eccles Hotel provide you with the perfect wedding day.
