For couples who value intimacy and style, the Villa Rose Hotel & Spa is a natural choice. Nestled in Ballybofey, this family-run boutique hotel is renowned for its warm welcome and contemporary luxury. The Cappry Suite, accommodating up to 300 guests, sets the stage for both lavish gatherings and refined, smaller celebrations. Yet what makes the Villa Rose stand out is the flexibility to host intimate weddings where every detail is personalised.

The hotel’s chic interiors, boutique spa, and luxurious honeymoon suite give the day an extra touch of indulgence. Couples can say their vows in an elegant civil ceremony on-site, then flow seamlessly into a celebration where the décor, menus, and atmosphere reflect their vision. It’s a venue that suits those who want the glamour of a large celebration but with the charm and personal feel of a boutique space.

An Chúirt Hotel – Gaeltacht Charm

For couples seeking something truly atmospheric, An Chúirt Hotel in Gweedore offers a wedding backdrop like no other. Nestled in the Donegal Gaeltacht, surrounded by the dramatic beauty of Errigal Mountain and the River Clady, it’s a venue that blends natural wonder with cultural richness.

Here, civil ceremonies can unfold against a backdrop of sweeping landscapes, with the hotel’s private gardens providing a serene and secluded setting. The elegant ballroom, meanwhile, offers a stylish canvas for a reception that can be as simple or as lavish as you desire. An Chúirt is also an excellent choice for those planning smaller gatherings, as its intimate spaces allow for a deeply personal celebration that feels both exclusive and connected to the wild beauty of Donegal.

Jackson’s Hotel – Riverside Romance

Just a short stroll from the Villa Rose, Jackson’s Hotel in Ballybofey offers a completely different yet equally enchanting setting. Overlooking the tranquil River Finn, Jackson’s combines timeless Donegal hospitality with contemporary style. For couples who want a setting that feels romantic yet relaxed, this venue is hard to match.

Choose from making a grand entrance, exchanging vows in a civil ceremony with spectacular views. With a choice of suites to accommodate weddings of different sizes, couples can craft a celebration that feels just right, whether that’s a large party with all their loved ones or a more intimate reception with a select few.

Food is at the heart of Jackson’s, with menus that celebrate local ingredients prepared with flair. This focus on quality and service ensures that every guest leaves with memories of not just the day itself, but the exceptional dining experience too.

Creating a Day as Unique as You

What unites the three Gallen Group venues is a shared commitment to making every wedding day feel personal and effortless. Their dedicated wedding teams bring a wealth of experience, ensuring that no detail is overlooked – from the first planning meeting to the final dance. Each venue offers the flexibility to host civil ceremonies as well as tailored packages designed for smaller numbers or larger gatherings, giving couples complete freedom to shape a day that feels true to them.

Equally important, each property combines stunning surroundings with a welcoming, inclusive atmosphere. Whether couples are drawn to the boutique intimacy of the Villa Rose, the riverside elegance of Jackson’s, or the cultural charm and natural grandeur of An Chúirt, they can be confident their wedding will be a celebration of love, individuality, and connection.
