When we meet couples who are planning their weddings, one of the things they often mention is how quickly costs can creep up due to unanticipated charges. At Magheramorne Estate, we don’t believe in hidden extras. When you choose us, the essentials and quite a few thoughtful additional touches are already in place, all designed to make your planning easier and your budget more manageable.

Over the years, we’ve noticed that couples are sometimes surprised by what we include as standard. It’s not something we usually shout about, but it’s time to let you in on the secret.

Magheramorne in bloom

For brides and grooms planning their big day, flowers are the perfect way to add colour, style spaces, stamp your personality and bring the outdoors in, but they come at a cost. Each week our in-house florist dresses the manor house with striking displays designed to delight guests, add subtle fragrances and accentuate the beauty of our rooms. From large leafy trees and small potted plants in our Conservatory, to iconic arrangements in our Hallway and Drawing Rooms, these displays can be moved around on your big day to supplement your own floral arrangements and enhance key areas such as dessert bars, cheese planks, guest areas or dining areas.

The great outdoors

Rain, hail or shine, enjoy our stunning gardens and outdoor areas all year round with the help of our striking canopies and range of outdoor furniture. For no additional cost, your guests can settle back with a drink or get a breath of fresh air away from the dancefloor, finding shade or shelter beneath our canopies on the garden terrace and ballroom terrace. Benches, soft seating and patio furniture set the scene, with our braziers available to light and warm the colder evenings. And this all comes with no additional price tag.

Take a seat

Tick “chair hire” off your list. At Magheramorne we have beautiful chairs which perfectly complement our elegant Ballroom and Drawing Rooms. There is no additional cost for using these, nor for our round or long dining tables which are provided with crisp white table linens and napkins as standard.

Our drawing rooms are set with comfortable sofas and armchairs to ensure that you can relax throughout the day, and can be moved in line with your vision for the spaces.

Let there be light!

There is no need to hire additional lighting for your wedding or event. Our rooms have customisable options including wall lights, ceiling lights and unique lamps. We also have portable lamps which allow our staff to add mood lighting to key areas of your celebration, from your grazing station to your reception tables.

From tea to toasts

Whether elegant china for teatime or glassware for your toasts, we have sourced the very best for our guests at Magheramorne. Our china is a unique design, exclusive to Magheramorne and adds a splash of colour to your reception.

A little pick-me-up

Latte, cappuccino, americano… coffee lovers love Magheramorne. At breakfast, your overnight guests can avail of speciality coffees and can have as many as they like for no additional cost – perfect for the morning after the night before!

Sounds good!

For those who want live music woven into their day, we have two pianos (including a baby grand) available to use. We have in-house AV to ensure your speeches and entertainment run seamlessly, and a portable speaker which allows you to play background music on our terraces or beneath our canopies.

Your round, same price, all night

At Magheramorne, the cost of drinks does not fluctuate as the evening goes on – they remain the same from the first glass of the day to the last toast at night. So there’s no need to worry when it’s your turn to buy a round!

Free parking

Parking might not be the most glamorous part of a wedding day, but it makes a big difference for your guests. At Magheramorne Estate, parking is always free and right on the grounds, so there’s no need to worry about hidden charges or shuttle buses. Guests can arrive, step straight into the celebration, and know their car is safe until the night is over.

These little details can make a huge difference, saving you time and money, and making the day feel complete without the pressure of sourcing the missing pieces.
