Are other events scheduled on the day?
No. The site is exclusively yours while you are there. Our pub Willie’s, is open to the public, but that is separate to The Barn.

How many can you cater for?
We can comfortably cater for up to 180 of your nearest and dearest.

When are final numbers required?
We require final numbers one week in advance and this will be the figure the invoice is based on.

When are menu choices and dietary requirements needed?
Again, all menu choices are selected one week in advance and we ask that you provide a list of any dietary requirements at this time also.

Are favours allowed?
We allow gifts and edible favours to be given out. However, if they are alcoholic (maximum 50ml) we charge a charity fee of €2 per person, which will be donated to our charity partners Team in Mullingar who will issue a receipt to you.

How many people can sit at each table?
The tables can hold between 6 and 10 people.

Who is responsible for putting up and taking down decorations / flowers?
While the couple may add their own decorations, we feel that given the natural character and charm of the buildings and grounds, little additional décor is needed. Flowers may be added in both the Sanctuary and the Barn, however if you do not plan to bring your own table centre piece, we will add a simple potted plant. Glitter, sprinkles and confetti are not permitted. It is required that nothing is stuck to walls or any paintwork on the premises. It is also the couple’s responsibility to remove the decorations the following day.

Do you have a courtesy van?
Yes, the courtesy van is generally available, please check when booking. Our courtesy van runs from 10pm until an hour after closing time. If you have numbers above 70, we suggest you organise a bus to pick them up at closing time as taxi’s can be difficult to get and hence will save your guests waiting to get home.

Can I bring in my own alcohol?
No. Only alcohol that has been purchased on-site can be consumed on the premises.

Do you have credit card facilities?
Of-course!

What overnight accommodation do you provide?

Is the venue wheelchair accessible?
Yes, the venue can be accessed by wheelchair.

Can we have our ceremony outside?
Yes, this is possible. However, we do not have any chairs or a PA system for this so that would be something you’d have to book separately.
