Top Elopement Locations I Love (and Promise Are Friendlier Than They Sound!)
Ireland has a knack for dramatic place names but don’t worry, The Poisoned Glen and Murder Hole Beach are every bit as beautiful as they are ominous-sounding! These spots, along with many others, offer some of the most breathtaking backdrops you could imagine for your elopement.
Here are a few favourites and dream locations I know and love, and I’m always happy to help you find the perfect setting based on your vision:
Poisoned Glen & Dunlewey (Donegal) — mystical valley views beneath Mount Errigal; stunning light at sunset.
Murder Hole Beach (Donegal) — wild, untouched beauty; remote and utterly cinematic (despite the name!).
Horn Head Peninsula (Donegal) — sweeping Atlantic views and dramatic cliffs, perfect for adventurous couples.
Slieve League Cliffs (Donegal) — towering sea cliffs and endless ocean vistas.
Malin Head (Donegal) — Ireland’s northernmost point, rugged, windswept, and deeply romantic.
Glenveagh National Park & Castle (Donegal) — serene lakes, forest trails, and timeless castle charm.
Dunluce Castle & Causeway Coast (Northern Ireland) — iconic ruins perched above crashing waves.
Kinbane Castle (Northern Ireland) — hidden gem on the Antrim coast with incredible sea views.
Anywhere by the sea or in the remote hills — I adore discovering quiet, meaningful places with my couples.
