The IMAGE Weddings 2025 Ultimate Venue Guide is out now!
The IMAGE Weddings 2025 Ultimate Venue Guide is officially live on IMAGE.ie and editor Ciara Elliot is here to highlight the best of what’s inside the new issue.
The champagne’s been popped, tears have been shed and you’re sporting a beautiful sparker. Congratulations! And now the best bit – you get ready to plan the party of a lifetime. One of the most important places to start – and the one choice that will undoubtedly set the tone for your whole day – is picking your wedding location. With our hand-picked round-up of over 45 venues in Ireland, The IMAGE Weddings 2025 Ultimate Venue Guide is your first stop to making that all-important choice.
Do you see yourself in a castle setting with draped tablecloths, an elegantly decorated Lambeth-style cake and a stunningly corset-ed two-piece gown? If so head straight to our Fairytale venues section (page 15) which has so many lovely ideas for castle venues. If you picture more of a chic and sophisticated location, you might want to check out our Elegant and Luxe section (page 45) which features our pick of the venues that bring the polish. Perhaps your look is more laidback and natural, and you see yourselves saying your vows in a beautiful garden or somewhere that is not your usual? Turn to the Boho Chic section on page 31. Finally, if you are set on a more traditional look and want to incorporate lots of beautiful whimsical elements, turn to our Dreamy and Vintage venues section on page 57.
Also in this issue, you will find advice from wedding planners on the new trends coming in for styling your reception in 2025 (page 10), a handy timeline to follow when planning your perfect bridal skin (page 64) and a gorgeous round-up of Irish made homeware to add to your wedding gift list (page 70). Peppered throughout this issue you will also find lots of real brides’ advice on flowers, beauty hacks and wedding dress shopping, and they are full of wisdom.
Happy new (engaged) you and we hope you enjoy the issue. It’s going to be one fabulous wedding planning season!
