Weddings by the Water


Weddings by the Water is a welcome new initiative from a creative group of young hoteliers who have been listening to their customers in order to focus on what people really want.

With a common philosophy, independent nature and great brand recognition, this small selection of hotels are set to target the intimate wedding market. Five properties - The Aghadoe Heights House & Spa, Bellinter House, The Ice House, Lisloughrey Lodge & Wineport Lodge are all part of this initiative and offer individual, distinctive properties with superb locations – all beside water, with the hallmark of warm personality driven hospitality and a big emphasis on delicious food using the very best regional and seasonal ingredients.



The most innovative aspect of the campaign is to demonstrate how these wonderful properties can offer excellent value for money in the current climate for those couples who want the very best but are working to an exact budget.

Small & Beautiful is a fixed price package available in the Weddings by the Water properties. It is a fully inclusive Wedding programme designed for 50 guests to have a mid-week Wedding for €9950.00. This package includes everything from champagne reception, canapés, wedding banquet, wine, bespoke flowers at the venue, late night nibbles, photographer, Wedding album and entertainment!

Weddings at these properties can be as traditional as required but also as quirky as can be. Civil services, commitment ceremonies and blessings can be held onsite. In addition, each property can also roll out the complete weddings package from pre-wedding celebrations to honeymoons. Onsite wedding planners at no additional cost are also available to offer the best advice, assistance and co-ordination skills necessary to make the wedding day experience as stress free as possible. Weddings by the Water will be focusing their marketing efforts on direct marketing, wedding fairs, niche advertising and promotions. With the new distinctive spending groups now unveiled, the Weddings by The Water concept will be highly attractive to the newly defined spending groups - Cent Savers, Confident Cubs, Experienced Recessionistas, and Cautious Optimists.

These properties represent some of Ireland’s finest hotels and all are Irish owned and managed. They are dedicated to excellent service, superb hospitality and above all delivering a great wedding experience for those seeking something a little different. Simply put, it will be your wedding – your way.
