We had the most magical Christmas Wedding at Kilkea Castle, it is stunning all year round, however there is something special about how it feels to be there over the Christmas Season.
The Staff were exceptional, so warm and welcoming. We were treated like royalty from the moment we arrived, each time we visited not just on our big day.
Our planning experience was made stress free from beginning to end thanks to Michaela and Elaine. The best in the business. The organization and planning in the lead up was also taken off our hands and all service providers were communicating directly with Michaela to ensure everything went seamlessly.
I cannot recommend this team and venue highly enough!
Response from Kilkea Castle
Thank you so much for your kind words Dee & Ross. We hope you both had an amazing first Christmas as Mr & Mrs Munnelly, and Lily got spoilt

From the moment we met Michaela and the wedding team, we knew we wanted to have our wedding with Kilkea Castle.

They were continually there for us, at the drop of a phone call or email. They talked us through the whole day, its run up and when we got to the day itself it went better than we could have imagined. The food and wine tasting made us feel like we were the only people getting married there the whole year! The amount of compliments we got on the food, the comfort of the rooms and the general ambience was incredible. A particular mention must go to Michaela who has made the whole experience a relaxing and fulfilling one. We would absolutely recommend Kilkea to any prospective couple.

Liam & Roisin - it was our absolute pleasure to look after you both on your big day. We look forward to seeing you again soon

Kilkea is an amazing wedding venue and Michaela and the team provided an excellent service on our wedding day in November. The food was amazing and our guests are still talking about it. It was a dream come true to get married in such a beautiful setting. Michaela made the day stress free for us and had everything so organised we couldn?t recommend her and the venue enough.

Elaine, Michaela and the rest of the team at Kilkea Castle really provided us with the most magical wedding day, they made everything so easy for us from initial viewing until the big day and made sure everything ran so smoothly on the day and took all last minute stresses away. The venue, the reception drinks, the food everything was absolutely amazing and our guests had the best time from start to finish.
The team were able to accommodate for last minute changes and requests and were so professional throughout. We would not have been able to have the day we had without them.
The grounds itself is spectacular but the team really go the extra mile to make sure your vision comes to light. Honestly, we were so happy with choosing Kilkea as our wedding venue and would highly recommend this to any newly engaged couples.
Thanks so so much again, can't wait to go back and visit!!

My husband and I got married in September of this year and Kilkea castle could not have been any more amazing. From the very start when we selected the venue, Michaela and her team were always available for questions and provided helpful solutions at every turn. We are US based and so planning a wedding from afar was daunting, but Michaela was able to help us with vendor recommendations and handled everything at the castle smoothly so we didn?t have to worry. The team were also incredibly accommodating to any ask that we had, like supplementing the wine choices or having pints of Guinness at the drinks reception. When we realized our wedding size was going to be a bit too large for the indoor ceremony space and had to pivot to having a marquee in the garden, the team were excellent in helping us get that coordinated. On the day Michaela and Elaine kept everyone together and gave my us peace of mind that they would manage any potential snafus and we could just enjoy our magical day. We would absolutely recommend Kilkea to anyone thinking of having their wedding in the Kildare area!

The weddings team at Kilkea castle are second to none, they were professional and very responsive. I could tell they knew what they were doing and trusted the team to ensure our guests had a very special stay. Many guests have commented on how superb the staff were, they could not do enough for us!
Every dish that came out of the kitchen was delicious and piping hot, they have great options to suit all needs. There are so many beautiful spots for photos too, your photographer will love you!

An extra special shout out to Michaela on the weddings team, her calm positivity is exactly what you want beside you on your big day, she really made working with Kilkea a pleasure.
We cannot wait to revisit Kilkea in the future, it has the most special place in our hearts!

Our wedding at Kilkea Castle was fabulous. The venue's enchanting castle, beautiful gardens, and luxurious rooms created a magical setting. From the moment we began planning, the wedding coordinators Elaine & Michaela, were extremely professional, and they were extraordinarily helpful throughout the entire process.
The bridal party's designated lodge added a special touch. This space was specifically designed for this purpose so has a great area for hairdressers and make-up artists to work. It really contributed to having a perfect morning of pampering and pictures as we prepared for the ceremony.
Throughout our day the attentive staff took wonderful care of us. Our guests couldn't stop praising the incredible food quality as well as the venue. Choosing Hermione's restaurant for our day two party was a brilliant decision.
Kilkea Castle gave us a dream wedding, with its charm, service, and culinary excellence making it an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!

My partner and I recently had the absolute pleasure of hosting our wedding reception at Kilkea Castle, and we couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the moment we stepped onto the grounds until the last guest bid their farewell, this historic castle and staff left us and our guests in awe.

First and foremost, the food was simply exceptional. The culinary team at Kilkea Castle are fantastic across all the outlets. The diverse menu options catered to everyone's preferences, and the attention to detail in presentation was commendable. Our guests couldn't stop raving about the quality of the meal and food options available onsite.

The staff at Kilkea Castle went above and beyond to ensure that every guest felt like royalty. From the warm and friendly welcome at the entrance to the attentive servers during the reception, we were all treated with the utmost care and respect. Not once did we have to worry about a thing, as the staff seamlessly orchestrated the event, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the day. David and Ismal looked after us both on our wedding day, they were simply amazing and things could not have went smoother.

We must extend our heartfelt gratitude to Elaine, the wedding manager at Kilkea Castle. Her expertise, dedication, and meticulous planning were evident throughout the entire process. Elaine made us feel like we were her top priority, taking the time to understand our vision and turning it into a breathtaking reality. Her calming presence and quick problem-solving skills ensured that everything ran smoothly, making our special day truly memorable.

The accoamdation is perfect for large groups or wedding guests, the lodges are ideal for any large families.

Kilkea Castle is more than just a wedding venue; it's a magical place where dreams come true. The food, service, and staff all exceeded our expectations, and Elaine, the wedding manager, deserves special recognition for her outstanding work. We wholeheartedly recommend Kilkea Castle to any couple seeking an unforgettable wedding experience surrounded by history, elegance, and warm Irish hospitality.

From the moment we booked and decided on Kilkea castle, right through the process they made our wedding journey a joy. The castle, facilities, rooms and whole build up was made so much easier knowing the teams quality and standards. We were married on 29th December 2022 in Kilkea Castle. It was an amazing day and we and our guests are still reeling from it. In summary, fantastic staff, lovely venue, amazing food and drinks. Hard to beat in our opinion.

Kilkea Castle for our wedding in December was the perfect venue choice. Weather on the day was icy and frosty but the team took this in their stride and we?re extremely accommodating in terms of where to get amazing photos and how to accommodate our guests. The team were extremely professional and our wedding was absolutely perfect!! The food was amazing and all the guests were talking about how exceptional it was. The castle and the baronial hall are so well decorated and were so exquisitely setup by the team. In the run up and on the day Elaine, Michaela and all the team are very helpful and responsive to all requests. On the day David the food manager was a star too. We would highly highly recommend Kilkea Castle to anyone looking at castle wedding venues. The whole team really went above and beyond from start to finish and we are so grateful for all they did to help create our dream wedding!!!

All of the staff were fantastic but in particular our two wedding coordinators Elaine and Michaela went above and beyond and their professionalism was second to none. Everything on the day went so smoothly and they took care of so many little details in the background, making the whole process as stress free as possible.

We recently got married at Kilkea Castle, and we loved every second of the weekend! Elaine, Michaela and all of the staff at Kilkea were phenomenal to deal with, they made us feel so special on the day and all of our guests were blown away by the service and the venue itself.
They were responsive and supportive especially in the last few weeks before the wedding and made sure everything ran smoothly and on time without letting things feel rushed.
We had a few special requests and they managed them and advised on different options to make sure we got the most out of the day.
Our favourite moment that they created for us was some time alone to enjoy the canap?s before the dinner, this was a really special time where it started to sink in that we were newlyweds!
I would recommend Kilkea without hesitation to any newly engaged couple looking for an exquisite venue with top class service!

We had the best experience with all the Team at Kilkea Castle. Having previously worked in events, it would take a lot for me to hand over the reigns on my wedding but Elaine & Michaela were the dream wedding team! An absolute pleasure to deal with for almost 2 years, nothing was an issue, they were as cool as a breeze and are simply professionals at what they do. All of the staff in Kilkea were so lovely throughout our visits in advance of the wedding and our 4 days on site for the wedding week. We felt like we were at home and they made us and our guests feel like we were the only wedding there ever. I can?t recommend them enough as a wedding venue, top class service!

Wow! I?ve dreamt of my wedding growing up, and our wedding day at Kilkea castle FAR exceeded my dreams. The grounds are so picturesque, and well maintained. The food was the most delicious food I?ve had in a while that our guests still talk about it and say they wish we were closer to continue to enjoy. As beautiful as the grounds were and as incredible as the food was. The star of Kilkea is the staff. The take the castle thing seriously and we were treated like royalty. From the guest attendants at check in, the servers, the bar staff and lady but not least the pleasure of getting to work with Elaine and Michaela. The planning process was smooth (even after postponing twice because of COVID) if you are thinking of Kilkea as your venue don?t think any further and reserve your day. It will be the most incredible day ever.

We had the pleasure of having Elaine and Michaela as our wedding coordinators. They were extraordinary in the planning process and truly remarkable on the day of the wedding. It was stressful planning A destination wedding for 135 guests but they were so attentitive to our needs and really made our day so very special.

After two years of postponing our big day due to Covid we finally got to have our wedding day at Kilkea castle. Over the course of the two years waiting, we got great support and understanding from the team at Kilkea castle, heralded by the amazing Elaine McFadden. From the start of the weekend with a family dinner on the Friday night through to the traditional music session in The Keep bar on the Sunday night, the staff at the hotel and wedding venue were simply delightful, great humored and everything went smoothly (including the rain stopping for the duration of the service on the Saturday, that was the master stroke, thank you Elaine;)
We have received our photos and videos recently and it is magical to look back at the location and history that surrounded us and most importantly, how much fun everyone had and still talks about. Hats off the chef and the kitchen for rolling out the red carpet for us, the food was sublime the late-night snacks went down a treat for all our energic dancers, of which there were plenty.
We are forever grateful to Elaine and the staff, as well as the owners who get a special mention. We got to witness such great support and expansion of the facilities while we waited for covid to pass. The new Spa is not to be missed on any stay.
We had a dream and the wedding team at Kilkea castle made it come through. They will always be in our hearts. We are looking forward to returning to stay in the future. All our friends and family left having such a wonderful experience with plenty of good Irish stories too. If they didn't know what the craic was before, they sure do now.
Thank you to all the wedding team and staff at Kilkea Castle. You made our day.

The service at Kilkea blew past any expectations we had, and they were high. The staff was friendly, efficient, and extremely accommodating. On the day of our wedding, there was a 90% chance of rain. Knowing how important it was to us to have our wedding outside the staff prepared for both indoor and outdoor options for the ceremony going above and beyond our expectations. Elaine was extremely warm, welcoming, and responsive from day one! Now that it is the holiday season a majority of the holiday cards we received have photos of our guests at the castle: ). If there ever was a need for a reference my husband and I would drop everything to share our experience.

I cannot say enough amazing things about this team and venue. Elaine and Micaela were absolutely wonderful and made me feel so at ease throughout the day and leading up to the wedding I just knew I could count on them to make the process so seamless. I loved every second and would recommend any and everyone to get married here or at least attend a wedding here. We cannot wait to already go back and we are so thankful for the amazing help we had even for little things after the wedding. I wish I could go back in time and relive it all over again! Thank you so much to everyone at the Kilkea, from the bottom of our hearts. We loved our special day!

We had the most wonderful wedding at Kilkea Castle. Elaine and Michaela were fantastic wedding planners so responsive and helpful no matter how small or trivial the query was. The food was amazing on our wedding day as were the wines we chose. Our guests remarked on how delicious the food was, how accommodating all of the staff were. They were also delighted at the variety of accommodation available onsite. We were blessed with fantastic weather on our wedding day and one of our lasting memories is walking onto the patio at the side of the castle hearing our beautiful reception music and seeing our guests having an amazing time with all of the food and drinks that were on offer. Elaine, Michaela and Neal were so helpful and attentive on the day, looking after ours and our wedding parties every need. There attention to detail was remarkable. They also made sure that our Day 2 celebrations were exactly what we wanted. We can?t thank Elaine, Michaela, Neal and all of the staff at Kilkea Castle enough for making our wedding day the best day of our lives.

You really are royalty for the day, Elaine is on call for anything you need from organising sandwiches after the Day 2 pub trip or getting a golf cart to bring the mother in law to her room for a quick change! The food was superb and our guests keep saying it?s the best wedding they have ever been to! A big thanks to everyone at Kilkea!

We cannot recommend Kilkea Castle enough, we had our dream Indian - Irish wedding at Kilkea and every expectation we had was surpassed and then some!! Planning a fusion wedding from overseas (including 2 covid postponements) sounds pretty daunting but Elaine and the staff at Kilkea made it a breeze for us. Elaine was so incredibly helpful every step of the way and very accommodating to our requests.
The venue itself is absolutely stunning. From the long tree lined driveway, beautifully manicured gardens and regal accommodation, no detail is missed. Ourselves and our guests really did feel like royalty for the weekend!
The food was fantastic, Elaine had worked with us to create a fusion Indian/Irish menu and the guests were not disappointed! Our wedding day ran like clockwork thanks to Elaine and all the staff involved, the service from them all was simply outstanding during our stay. If you're looking for a spectacular Castle wedding venue, you really don't need to look any further!

The best decision we made when planning our wedding was choosing Kilkea Castle for our reception. From the first visit to the day itself, we have had an amazing experience. We were so well looked after and they were so responsive to any emails or phone calls. We had the most wonderful wedding day and our guests were blown away by the venue, food and service. Michaela and Elaine were wonderful to deal with, along with all the other staff on the day - we didn?t have to worry about anything. We would 100% recommend Kilkea Castle to any couples currently planning their wedding!

We had a fantastic wedding at Kilkea Castle, it couldn't have been any better. The day went exactly as we had hoped with all of the guests enjoying themselves. The venue was perfect; the staff made our guests feel really welcome and relaxed and the castle was a real luxury with the open log fire while the guests enjoyed their canap?s and drinks. The meal did not disappoint either, the food was fantastic and served by very attentive and friendly staff. After the meal we had drinks in the bar and it was really pleasant evening catching up with friendly. The bar staff were excellent and really looked after our guests and enjoyed a bit banter with them too.
Our wedding planner, Elaine, with some help from Michaela ensured that everything was organised really well and matched with our hopes for the day. Our wedding was impacted a couple of times by covid restrictions and guests who had to cancel but Elaine and her team were very helpful and reassuring throughout and made sure everything ran smoothly despite the changes. Even on the day of the wedding when our photographer had to cancel due to covid, Elaine managed to find us one at short notice, she couldn't have been more helpful. The photographer turned out to be really great too.
We are delighted with how our day went and we would highly recommend Kilkea to anyone looking for a wedding venue.
We are looking to visiting Kilkea Castle again!

Elaine and the entire Kilkea Castle team were amazing in everything from our first enquiry call, planning through restrictions, and right through to the day itself and afterwards. We didn't click 5 stars for everything 'just because'. It genuinely was 5 star service, and every member of our family complimented the venue, food but most of all the staff who really made this a wonderful weekend. Personally, I felt like the princess of the castle for the entire weekend, and our family felt like royalty. Thank you again to the team, it was magical.

We had our wedding reception in Kilkea Castle in December 2018. To summarise ? we cannot recommend this venue highly enough!
The staff were absolutely incredible throughout every stage of the process but were particularly impressive the day of the wedding. They so accommodating and nothing was ever a problem. On the day of the wedding, everything ran like clockwork because of their hard work. A particular mention to Elaine, Charlene and the gentleman in charge at the bar (whose name I can?t recall at this moment-apologies)!

The castle itself and Baronial hall (where our meal/reception was held) are absolutely beautiful. The grounds are also stunning. An important factor for us in choosing a venue was that the guests would have somewhere to stay on site at a reasonable price and Kilkea really ticked this box having a range of high quality accommodation at different price levels.

The staff, the service we received and the magnificence of the castle/Baronial hall all contributed to making our wedding day the best day of our lives and we cannot recommend Kilkea Castle highly enough for any couple trying to choose a wedding venue.

We recently got married at Kilkea (6th October 2018) and had an absolutely amazing time!
We had roughly 200 guests (half coming in from abroad, but nearly all stayed over!) which were comfortably accommodated across the castle, lodges and carriage rooms. We took exclusivity of the castle for the entire weekend and cannot speak highly enough of this place. The venue and setting itself are stunning. A castle and a wedding reception room with a 12th Century feature wall with stained glass windows, just magical!!!

Our food tasting experience was exceptional - having our own sommelier was a nice touch and we had opportunity to discuss with the Emma the Chef once finished (who is then the chef on your day - another nice touch). We had quite a few different dietary requirements e.g. I was gluten free, all of which were catered for impeccably. It was fabulous being at my own wedding and eating every single dish that I wanted to from the canap?s to the gluten free crisp sandwiches at the end of the night! The food on the day was exceptional, with many saying the crab starter was the best food they'd ever eaten.

The ability to book entire lodges ensured that the wedding wasn't too costly for some of our overseas guests with the carriage rooms being available for those wanting something special.

We also had afternoon tea and a formal evening meal the following day. A small hiccup with breakfast on the morning after the 2nd night was rectified well and all of our guests left happy.
Both days were amazing and really quite impressive in such spectacular grounds. In particular, staff on the day of the Wedding were Fantastic.


Elaine was our contact at Kilkea and was superb. Her organisation and control on the day meant we didn't need to think about things and worry that everything was happening - we were able to relax knowing Elaine had it in hand. For the evening Elaine passed us over to Charlene who had ownership of our experience in the Baronial Hall. I personally very much liked this as it meant Charlene was invested in our day, and Charlene and her team were outstanding. Our meal and speeches over-ran quite significantly (because of us delaying and delivering long speeches) but the staff were able to cater for this without issue.

In the Castle we had a great time. Two members of staff of note: Andrew and Nazeem.
Andrew was there throughout our time in the Castle and was absolutely on point. Available whenever we needed and for whatever reason, but most importantly he was great fun, professional and pleasant to all of our guests. A good number of our guests mentioned him by name to us after the event which shows the impact he had.
Nazeem was involved in our food tasting and throughout our entire weekend. Quiet and unassuming, but genuinely lovely and happy. We both got time chatting to him and were pleased he went through the whole process with us - remembering us from our tasting and coming over to speak with us and waving to us as we came in on the day. Lovely chap.

In summary, amazing venue, exceptional organisation, would go back there in a heartbeat. Highly recommended. We cannot wait to go back on our 1 year anniversary!

Thank you to all the staff who made the day so special for us!

Kilkea Castle is the dream. When they say you can have a fairytale wedding, it is true. I had my wedding the 22nd of July and I really felt like I was in a fairytale and I was the Queen. My guests did not want to leave the castle and back in Italy they are still talking about it.
There won't be enough words to describe what they did for us, from our arrival on Saturday, until our departure on Monday. The castle grounds, lodges, castle rooms...everything was amazing, but the best part was the stuff: professional, friendly, kind, always with a smile. Guys, you really made my day perfect!! I was so relaxed the morning of my wedding because I could really see that I was in good hands!! Food was simply delicious and I am planning to come back for that as well! 5 stars are not enough as you really gave us a dream and this is priceless. Thanks again!!
