Why The Lake House Kerry Is Perfect for a Relaxed Wedding Weekend

Smaller Weddings in a Rural Setting

Weddings don’t need to be rushed.
They don’t need strangers in the room.
And they definitely don’t need a 12am clear-out.

More couples are choosing wedding weekends — time to slow down, gather their closest people, and celebrate in a way that actually feels like them. That’s where The Lake House Kerry comes in.

A Different Kind of Wedding Stay

Set on the edge of the Wild Atlantic Way, The Lake House Kerry isn’t a venue in the traditional sense. It’s a place to land — before, after, and around the big day.

Couples often:

  • Marry in Kenmare, Sneem, or beyond

  • Host dinner or drinks elsewhere

  • Return to the house for a proper celebration

  • Wake up together the next morning, no pressure, no clock watching

It’s intimate. It’s relaxed. And it feels real.

The Magic Is in the Togetherness

There’s something rare about having everyone under one roof:

  • Late-night chats in the bar

  • Children asleep upstairs while the adults linger

  • Breakfasts that turn into reminiscing sessions

  • A sense that nothing needs to be rushed

That’s what guests remember long after the flowers are gone.

Ideal for:

  • Wedding after-parties

  • Immediate family accommodation

  • Close-friend wedding weekends

  • Second-day celebrations

  • Low-key, high-quality gatherings

Not ideal for:

  • Big formal receptions

  • Marquee weddings

  • One-night party bookings

And that’s by design.
