Travel Guide

Thank you for taking an interest in attending our wedding! We know many of you live far from Ireland, so we have created this guide to help you sort out the travel logistics.

If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact us via email or phone any time!

Getting there...

Our wedding will be at the beautiful Waterford Castle Resort Hotel in Waterford, Ireland.

To get there, follow these steps:

1. If you are traveling from outside Ireland, book your flights! We recommend flying into Dublin aiport (airport code: DUB) the night before the wedding (Friday, March 6th) or earlier. We also recommend booking your flights by the end of the year to avoid heightened air travel ticket prices.

2. Once you reach Dublin, or if you are traveling from another location within Ireland, you will need to travel to the town of Waterford, Ireland. There are a few methods of travel, but we recommended one of the following:

Carpool / Rent a car (about 2 - 2.5 hours drive south)
*Recommended* Take the Irish Rail from Dublin Heuston Station to Waterford Plunkett Station (about 20 eur one way)
Take a regional bus from Dublin to Waterford (600, X4, etc), you can plan your trip with Ireland's planner here. Make sure to bring exact change with you for the fare.

3. Waterford Castle Resort is located on an island. There is a car ferry that regular travels to and from the island, but there is no way to board the ferry by foot. So, once your each Waterford, we recommend car pooling or calling a cab (which you can do via Uber) to get to the hotel.
