Tulfarris Hotel – Summer Wedding
Tulfarris Hotel – A Stunning Summer Wedding for Danielle and Shane
Danielle and Shane celebrated their unforgettable Summer wedding at the beautiful Tulfarris Hotel and Golf Resort, nestled on the shores of Blessington Lake in Co. Wicklow. Everything took place on-site—from the excitement of morning preparations, to a romantic outdoor ceremony, to dancing the night away—all surrounded by the lush greenery and tranquil views of the Wicklow countryside.
Bridal & Groom Preparations
The day began in the elegant suites at Tulfarris, where Danielle and her bridal party got ready in a relaxed and joyful atmosphere. Natural light filled the room, creating the perfect setting to capture candid moments of laughter, anticipation, and quiet reflection. Meanwhile, Shane and his groomsmen were just a short walk away, adding to the relaxed, no-rush pace of the day.
Courtyard Ceremony
The couple exchanged vows under blue skies in the Tulfarris courtyard, a hidden gem of the venue. Surrounded by family and friends, the intimate setting was brought to life with personal touches and emotional moments. The outdoor ceremony was a dream for any wedding photographer—plenty of space, clean light, and a touch of nature.
Group & Family Photos
One of the standout moments of the day was the group photo, perfectly arranged thanks to the helpful staff at Tulfarris. The hotel’s grounds offered countless options for family portraits—from quiet shaded corners to expansive open lawns. Everything was just a short stroll away, making transitions smooth and stress-free for everyone.

Couple Portraits with a View
As the sun dipped lower, we had the chance to explore the grounds for couple portraits. Tulfarris offers a rare combination of manicured gardens, elegant architecture, and dramatic lake views. Danielle and Shane were amazing to work with—relaxed, present in the moment, and totally in love. The golden August light reflecting off the lake made for truly magical images.
Reception, Speeches, and First Dance
The evening flowed seamlessly into speeches and dinner, held in the venue’s spacious and tastefully decorated reception room. Heartfelt words, laughter, and some emotional toasts filled the room with warmth. As the night came alive with music and dancing, the energy on the dance floor was electric. Danielle and Shane’s first dance was the perfect way to kick off an unforgettable celebration.
