It is now possible to hold a ceremony at the Rectory since legislation was passed in November 2007. At the Rectory we can cater to onsite ceremonies and have held both outdoor and indoor ceremonies here. Preference for most couples is if possible to hold the ceremony outdoors on the lawn but just depending on what ceremony type you have you may find you are somewhat more restricted. For example a regulation of the HSE department in Ireland you can only hold these ceremonies inside a permananent structure so tents and marquees etc. do not seem possible. As it is not possible to perform these in your own home or private dwelling the Rectory is the next best thing. We can cater for these in the blue or red room depending on your numbers. Both rooms overlook the Rectory lawn and Glandore Harbour. Alternatively we have the opend to help you organise an outdoor ceremony with a recognised approved solenmniser with the option of a full religious element to include communion and full cloth attire or a simplified ceremony in casual suit attire. You choose what suits.
There are many advantages of opting for a venue like the Rectory for your wedding day. Nowadays couples are looking to cut costs for their special day without cutting on quality.

A number of couples who get married at the Rectory do so in under 6-9 months. Forget all those terrrible urban legends you've heard. We are talking from 1st hand experience here including a family member who organised their own wedding in less than 4 months!!! They said they found it really easy to achieve as everyone pulled together and helped make the event a great success.

As a regulation of the HSE department in Ireland you can only hold these ceremonies inside a permananent structure so tents and marquees etc. do not seem possible.
