Question

What is the best way to travel around Ireland?

Answer

If you plan on staying in a major city like Dublin, by foot and public transit would be best to avoid traffic. However, we recommend renting a car for easy transport to our wedding venue and for exploring Ireland beyond major cities. If you rent a car, this is a reminder that you will need to drive on the opposite side of the road!
