Weddings

If a fairytale Irish castle wedding is what you’re hoping for, Johnstown Castle can make your dreams come true.

Turrets and towers will be the backdrop to your wedding photographs, while the timeless atmosphere in Johnstown Castle’s elegant rooms will add a sense of history to your special day.

Be part of 800 years of history with a wedding venue as unique as both of you. We are delighted to offer an exclusive venue perfect for an intimate wedding celebration catering for up to fifty guests. The dramatic, neo-gothic architecture of Johnstown Castle, with its sumptuously furnished rooms and enchanting gardens, offers a magnificent backdrop for your special day.

We will be delighted to help you plan the perfect castle wedding celebration. We are also happy to play host to engagement photo shoots and vow renewals, as well as weddings and elopements, so your Johnstown Castle love story is everything you’re hoping for.

A Choice of Romantic Settings

Stage your ceremony in the castle’s dining room, overlooking the lake, as swans glide idly by and peacocks roam the gorgeous gardens. The room’s ornate wood panelling, crystal chandeliers, and gothic window frames all add to the atmosphere for you and your guests.

Breathtaking Scenery for Your Special Day

Let your guests enjoy champagne and canapés or a picnic on the lawns while your photos are taken in Johnstown Castle’s colourful gardens. We’ll help your photographer find the perfect lakeside and garden settings for wonderful wedding pictures.

An Exclusive and Evocative Venue

Wexford’s Johnstown Castle is a real hidden gem. While the castle is a Ceremony Only wedding venue, we can help to plan other aspects of your day thanks to our strong relationship with our trusted partners at Wexford’s wonderful manor houses and hotels, and we will be delighted to play a part in whichever aspects of your celebrations you’d like to host here at Johnstown Castle, Estate, Museum & Gardens.
