Dublin in Ireland is one of those amazing historic cities that also happens to have a vibrant, modern vibe. The city itself has been around since the 9th century, but these days you’ll find medieval castles and cathedrals rubbing shoulders with handsome Georgian architecture from the 1700s and plenty of eye-catching spots that have developed as the tastes of the citizens became more eclectic and refined in modern times.
Have you been entertaining the idea of renting a stretch tent in Ireland to host an outdoor wedding? Some may call you brave (it does tend to drizzle a fair amount around the Emerald Isle, after all!), but if you do strike it lucky with the weather, there is nothing prettier than a sunny day in Ireland. You’ll also be spoiled for choice where al fresco destinations are concerned.

Royal Hospital Kilmainham
