FAQs
Question
Where is the wedding taking place?
Answer
The ceremony and reception will both take place at Powerscourt House & Gardens. You can find directions and more details on the Travel section of the website. P.S. Do not get confused with Powerscourt Hotel, completely different venue :) There is also the Powerscourt Hotel, which is very close by. Please do not go there as you may end up attending somebody else's wedding and miss out on the better party ;)
Question
When should I RSVP by?
Answer
Please RSVP by May 15th so we can finalise numbers with the venue.
Question
What time should I arrive?
Answer
We recommend arriving about 20-30 minutes before the ceremony so everyone is seated before things begin.
Question
Will the ceremony and reception be indoors or outdoors?
Answer
Our ceremony will be in the gorgeous marble hall in Powerscourt House, we both fell in love with the room and hope you do too. Our drinks reception will be in the beautiful Powerscourt Gardens, surrounded by the luscious Wicklow landscape. It is Ireland afterall though, so we do have an indoor Plan B if the weather fails us on the day. But don't fear, the party will continue rain, hail or shine!
Question
Can you accommodate dietary requirements?
Answer
Of course. Please let us know when you RSVP, and we will make sure the venue is aware.
Question
Is there parking on site?
Answer
Yes, there is a car park by Powerscourt Garden Centre, a very short stroll to the venue. Girls, we got you, it is also high heel friendly :)
Question
Can you leave your car in the car park overnight?
Answer
Yes, drop the car and get a glass of bubbles or a Guinness in your hand asap! And your car will be waiting for you in the morning when you come to pick it up. Maybe you can have a little browse around the Avoca cafe and shop or the gardens as a nice little hangover cure while you're at it too...
Question
What's the best way to get home after the party?
Answer
We recommend pre-booking taxis if you know the time you plan to leave. Otherwise, Freenow is the most commonly used app in the area. Please download the app before you arrive, as network coverage cannot be guaranteed throughout the venue. We will also be offering a shuttle bus to local areas (Enniskerry, Kilmacanogue & Bray). The last bus will leave at about 1.30 am.
Question
Can I bring my kids?
Answer
As much as we adore your children, we thought it would be nice for you to have a night away at an adult-only celebration! Special exemption for our families <3
Question
Do you have a gift registry?
Answer
Rather than a traditional registry, we are planning a special honeymoon in Mexico! Viva la vida :) If you would like to give a gift, a contribution toward that trip would be very much appreciated. However, please do not feel any pressure; having you celebrate with us is the most important thing!
Question
Are there hotels nearby?
Answer
Yes, we have listed a few nearby accommodation options in the accommodation section of the website to make planning easier.
Question
If looking for an Airbnb option, what areas are best?
Answer
We would recommend the following local areas to search for an Airbnb: Enniskerry, Bray, Greystones, Delgany, Dalkey, Dundrum, Kilternan, Killiney, Dun Laoghaire, Kilmacanogue, Roundwood. If unsure, please do not hesitate to contact us for advice.
Question
What is the dress code?
Answer
Dress to impress and ready to party! I think we all know Carmel loves any excuse to get dressed up; so get the gladrags on and get ready to admire each other's style...
