The Perfect Wedding Venue in Donegal

- Posted on: -

Spend the most important day of your life in one of two fabulous hotels in Co. Donegal, the perfect wedding venue to create joyous memories that will last a lifetime. Finding a distinctive wedding hotel that is just right for your special day can be a challenge. At McGettigan Hotels, we can make your dream happily ever after come true.

You can choose The Clanree Hotel, an elegant and sophisticated venue, or McGettigan's Hotel Letterkenny (formerly Gallaghers), a more contemporary and modern venue, rather than a traditional wedding hotel. Both venues are approved West Ireland locations for Civil Wedding ceremonies.

As Donegal’s premier wedding venues, we pride ourselves in offering our guests personal attention and work closely with each couple to ensure that their every need is met. Our ‘one wedding a day’ policy will ensure every request is attended to and standards are kept high.

Enjoy a drinks reception on arrival as you walk down a lantern lit red carpet. Whether it's a big wedding or an intimate gathering we will ensure that every aspect of your wedding is attended to.

Clanree Wedding

The Clanree Hotel is the ultimate picturesque wedding venue. We combine luxury, delicious food and a superb service to create the ideal Donegal wedding venue. Our MacGrianna and Shellbridge Suites are both tastefully styled and our banqueting menus can be tailored to your preferences and budget.

The photo opportunities are endless at the Clanree Hotel; our sweeping "Gone with the Wind” style staircase affords the most breathtaking memories. Outside there is an original stone arch bridge surrounded by native flora, a quaint relic of the Donegal Railway which has been lovingly restored by local craftsmen; alternatively the Victorian-style Gazebo and a garden walkway for creating perfect photographic memories.

The Shellbridge and the MacGrianna suite are perfect for any wedding of any size, catering for up to 500 guests. Rooms can be dressed with chair covers and bows, fresh flower arrangements, candles and tea-lights, all of which add to the atmosphere. At the Clanree Hotel the bride and groom also receive a complimentary 1st anniversary dinner.

McGettigan Wedding

McGettigans Hotel (formerly Gallaghers) is a modern hotel and a perfect location for your dream day, with its glass facade and spectacular chandelier. Our stylish Gaoth Dobhair Suite is the perfect alternative wedding space to entertain your guests, topped with excellent cuisine and the use of our Inis Meain bar for your private drinks reception. Our fabulous Bridal Suite is the spacious An Chaiseal Suite; which is fitted with a king size bed, and showcases spectacular views of Letterkenny town.

So no matter which of our hotels you choose, you are guaranteed a truly magical day from start to finish when you have your wedding with us...
