Your Wedding at The Strand Inn

Say “I Do” by the sea, in the heart of Dunmore East

Bridal party celebrating on The Strand Inn's sea-view terrace

Welcome

To a wildly romantic setting on the ocean’s edge, nestled on the coast of Ireland’s Ancient East.

Stunning views across the cliffs and beach accompany you and your guests while you toast, dine and celebrate. Our open, light-filled dining room and sprawling sun terrace make your wedding day a joyous occasion — with elegant cocktails, a carefully curated wine list, and food to match.

Let us make planning your wedding an easy and joyful experience. Our team has crafted an inclusive, customisable package with everything you need — or, if you prefer a blank slate, we’re always delighted to design a completely bespoke day around your vision.

A Day That’s Entirely Yours

No two weddings at The Strand are ever the same. Whether you’re planning an intimate gathering or a full celebration with all your family and friends, our team works closely with you to shape a day that reflects your style.

Say your vows and celebrate your reception without ever leaving the water’s edge — we host both your ceremony and your wedding breakfast on-site, for up to 150 guests, so there’s no rushing between venues on the biggest day of your life.

Your Ceremony

Our team is happy to talk through every option for your ceremony, depending on your guest numbers and preferences. Civil ceremonies and civil partnerships can take place in our stunning, light-filled restaurant.

Alternatively, say your vows outdoors on our beautiful rooftop balcony or beach-side terrace. For couples planning a Catholic ceremony, Killea Church — our local parish church in Dunmore East — is just a two-minute drive from the venue.
