Why Exclusive Hire Makes Your Irish Wedding Truly Unforgettable at Poulaphouca House & Fall

More couples than ever before are searching for exclusive wedding venue hire in Ireland, and it’s no surprise why. When your wedding venue is entirely yours — no other events, no competing timelines, and complete privacy — the day unfolds with a sense of intimacy, calm and celebration that’s impossible to replicate in any other way.

At Poulaphouca House & Falls, exclusive hire isn’t an add-on: it’s the only way that we run weddings. With heritage spaces, beautiful gardens, our iconic Barn, history and luxury accommodation all in one location here in the Garden of Ireland just 45 minutes from Dublin Airport, couples from Ireland, the UK, Europe and beyond choose us for the freedom and beauty that come with having a venue all to themselves.

1. Privacy & Presence — Your Day, Just Yours

When you book Poulaphouca House & Falls on an exclusive basis, that means every part of the estate belongs to you and your guests for your wedding weekend. No hotel guests in the background of your photos. No competing events. Just your closest family and friends sharing the day with you in one private, peaceful setting.

This level of privacy makes your celebration feel intimate, personal, and completely your own — something couples often tell us is one of the biggest reasons they went exclusive.

2. Complete Peace of Mind & Effortless Flow

With exclusive hire, your schedule becomes your own. Ceremony in the Garden Pavilion or The Barn, drinks on the lawns, photos with lake views and dancing late into the night — all without leaving the estate. That means:

  • No transport logistics between locations

  • No holding patterns between events

  • No stress about timing or interruptions

Everything flows smoothly from start to finish with guests loving the different spaces as we introduce them throughout the wedding.

3. Stunning Photo Opportunities Throughout the Estate

Ireland’s natural beauty is one reason international couples choose it for destination weddings — and Poulaphouca delivers on every front. With exclusive access to:

  • 35 acres of natural Wicklow wonder

  • Riverside walks and lawns

  • Historic Georgian interiors

  • The light-filled Barn

your wedding photos will capture every unforgettable moment.

4. A Venue That Understands Destination Couples

Couples travelling from abroad, especially from the UK, USA or Australia, are increasingly choosing Ireland for the combination of scenery, warmth and accessibility. What they love most about exclusive hire at Poulaphouca is how easy everything becomes — one place for guests to stay, celebrate and explore together.

As Denise & Nick (married July 3rd 2025) shared:

“Our Irish/Australian wedding was perfect. Accommodation and transport were seamless, and our guests loved every moment.”

5. A Once-in-a-Lifetime Experience

Exclusive hire isn’t just about practical benefits — it’s about the experience.

Instead of sharing a venue with other events or guests, you and your closest become custodians of the space for your celebration. It feels like a private country estate for the weekend — one that’s completely yours.

Many couples tell us that’s the moment they knew they’d chosen the right venue.

For example, Bianca & Mark (married April 10th 2025) wrote:

“Our guests are still talking about the food and the atmosphere. The whole Poulaphouca team went above and beyond to give us the most special day of our lives.”
