A Magical Christmas Staff Party at Darver Castle

As the festive season approached, WOW Weddings was thrilled to host a Christmas staff party at Darver Castle Estate. It was the perfect venue to celebrate a year of hard work, team spirit, and shared successes.

First, guests walking through the gates of Darver Castle, set in 50 acres of parkland in County Louth, were greeted by its historic charm and elegant atmosphere. The castle immediately made everyone feel festive.

🎁 A Sweet Welcome — Candy Cart & Festive Treats

We placed a beautifully styled Candy cart near the entrance. It was filled with festive sweets, from traditional favourites to indulgent treats. Guests enjoyed something sweet while mingling.

Moreover, the candy cart served as both a stunning visual feature and a conversation starter. It instantly created a joyful, celebratory atmosphere.

📾 Luxe Photo Booth — Fun & Festive Moments

Next, one of the highlights of the evening was our Luxe photo booth. With stylish décor, ambient lighting, and holiday sparkle, it was the perfect spot for festive photos.

Colleagues had fun striking poses, snapping selfies, and sharing laughs. Additionally, the booth added a playful, modern twist to the celebration. It kept the energy lively throughout the night.

Why Darver Castle Was the Perfect Choice

Darver Castle’s historic ambiance and luxurious surroundings naturally elevate any celebration. It made the night feel extra special.

Adding dĂ©cor touches, like the candy cart and selfie booth, combined the castle’s elegance with a relaxed, fun vibe. WOW Weddings loves creating this balance — and this event showed it perfectly.

✹ A Big Thank You & Here’s to Next Year

The evening was a huge success — filled with smiles, laughter, and festive cheer. It was more than a party; it was a chance to thank the team, reflect on the year, and strengthen connections in a beautiful setting.

Thank you to everyone who joined us! If you’d like to see more of our work — from candy carts and selfie booths to full-scale wedding dĂ©cor — stay tuned. We can’t wait to make next year even more magical.

Cliodhna and Wiktor Wedding Powerscourt Hotel

On Saturday, September 27th, 2025, we had the pleasure of styling the wedding of Cliodhna & Wiktor in the breathtaking surroundings of Powerscourt Hotel. Their chosen theme was a rich and romantic blend of burgundy, creams, and subtle touches of white and green, which created an elegant atmosphere for both their civil ceremony and reception celebrations.

The Ceremony: Elegant & Romantic Details

The ceremony was styled with attention to every detail to ensure the aisle was both welcoming and breathtaking:

  • Flower plinths at the start of the aisle, bursting with seasonal blooms in burgundy and cream.

  • Pew ends with flowing burgundy sashes tied neatly every second row, adding rhythm and richness to the aisle.

  • Lanterns with candles, lining the aisle to bring soft warmth and romance to the space.

  • A unity arrangement at the front, completing the ceremony styling with symbolic beauty.

The warm tones and candlelight created the perfect setting for the couple to say their vows in front of family and friends.

The Reception: Transforming & Re-Using Décor

For the reception, we carefully re-used some of the ceremony décor to give it a new purpose and ensure continuity of the floral theme:

  • An ivory and gold fairylight backdrop framed the top table, adding a soft, glowing focal point.

  • The top table was styled with floral arrangements and candle-filled glass cylinders, creating a romantic ambience for the couple.

  • Two cherry blossom tree arches on either side of the top table elevated the look, adding height and drama.

  • Gold geometric stands with wild flower balls at the top and candles at the      base became striking centrepieces for guest tables.

Every detail tied the reception space together, highlighting the couple’s chosen colours while maintaining a light, luxurious feel.

Extra Touches of Magic

To give the reception space an added wow factor, we styled additional décor elements:

  • Helium balloons floating to the ceiling, creating height and playfulness in the room.

  • A display of giant LED letters with the couple’s initials, surrounded by balloon arrangements — a perfect photo moment.

  • In the drinks reception area, rich burgundy draping framed a chic balloon installation and “Let’s Party” neon sign, offering guests a fun backdrop for photos as they mingled.

Bringing It All Together

From the candlelit ceremony to the vibrant party backdrop, Cliodhna & Wiktor’s wedding styling showcased how thoughtful details and colour coordination can transform a venue. The burgundy and cream palette set a romantic tone, while the clever re-use of dĂ©cor between ceremony and reception allowed for consistency and sustainability without compromising on style.

It was a true pleasure for the Wow Weddings team to bring this vision to life at the stunning Powerscourt Hotel.

Kilronan Castle Wedding Draping: A Fairytale Transformation

Few venues in Ireland capture romance and grandeur quite like Kilronan Castle. Nestled on the shores of Lough Meelagh, this historic castle offers couples a truly magical setting for their big day. Recently, our team had the pleasure of styling a wedding here with our custom Kilronan Castle wedding draping, designed to elevate both the ceremony and the evening reception.

The day began in a beautifully draped ceremony space. We installed a full room drape, creating a soft, elegant backdrop that set the perfect tone for the vows. The flowing fabric not only added intimacy to the space but also complemented the castle’s rich interiors without overpowering its historic charm.

The custom draping framed the couple beautifully, ensuring every moment — from walking down the aisle to the exchange of rings — had a picture-perfect backdrop.

Seamless Transition to the Ballroom

After the ceremony, our team transformed the venue with ease. The draping was opened up and reconfigured to complete the styling in the grand ballroom. The result was a breathtaking reception space where guests dined and celebrated surrounded by a warm, luxurious atmosphere.

A Picture-Perfect Aisle

The ceremony began with a truly enchanting aisle design. We lined the walkway with lush floral arrangements in soft, romantic tones, paired with elegant ivory lanterns. The flowers framed the aisle beautifully, guiding the bride toward the altar in a setting that felt timeless and graceful. Every detail worked in harmony to create an unforgettable first impression.

A Stunning Floral Ring

One of the standout features of the dĂ©cor was a large floral ring positioned at the top of the aisle. This gorgeous structure, bursting with fresh greenery and soft blooms, provided a breath-taking backdrop for the vows. Later, the floral ring was cleverly repurposed and moved behind the top table for the reception, ensuring it remained a central feature throughout the celebration. This versatile design not only looked incredible but also made the most of the couple’s investment in their styling.

Elegant Centrepieces with Ivory Lanterns

For the reception, we styled the tables with romantic floral centrepieces, each paired with ivory lanterns that added a warm, intimate glow. The combination of flowers and candlelight brought softness and charm to the space, creating a romantic atmosphere that guests loved.

A Room Transformed with Ivory Draping

To complete the look, we installed full ivory draping at reception space a refined and luxurious finish. Together with the florals and lanterns, the draping tied every element of the décor into one cohesive and elegant design.

Styled Wedding Photoshoot at the Grand Hotel Malahide

We recently had the pleasure of styling a stunning civil ceremony photoshoot at the beautiful Grand Hotel in Malahide. With timeless ivory tones, fresh florals, and soft candlelight, the décor created a truly romantic atmosphere perfect for any wedding celebration.

From the moment guests entered the venue, every detail was designed to reflect romance and sophistication. We started by draping the entrance to the ballroom, creating a soft and elegant tunnel effect using flowing ivory fabric. This was enhanced with floral arrangements and soft candlelight placed along the staircase, instantly setting the tone for the day.

Civil Ceremony Setup with Ivory Elegance

For the ceremony space, we dressed each chair in crisp white covers and tied them with elegant ivory sashes. Along the aisle, we placed low floral trays filled with white roses and hydrangeas, enhanced by the soft glow of candles.

At the top of the aisle, a white wooden arch became the centrepiece. It was beautifully filled with fresh flowers in soft ivory tones, creating a natural frame for the couple. Behind it, we installed an ivory draped backdrop to give the ceremony space a soft and luxurious finish.

 

Draping and Décor that Flows

To keep the décor flowing throughout the venue, we extended our styling into the main reception room. The grand entrance into the ballroom was fully draped in matching ivory fabric, tied back neatly to reveal the staircase. The stairs were decorated with flower arrangements and candles to welcome guests in a warm, elegant way.

Reception Room Styling with Floral Details

Inside the ballroom, we added tall gold geometric stands topped with lush floral arrangements to tie in with the ceremony décor. At the base of each stand, we placed candlelight to add warmth and romance to the space.

Every detail was chosen to complement the soft ivory colour palette, creating a consistent look from entrance to ceremony to reception.

It was a pleasure to transform the Grand Hotel’s already beautiful space into a romantic, welcoming ceremony and reception experience. Whether it’s a wedding or styled shoot, our aim is always the same – to create a timeless and seamless look from start to finish.

If you’re planning your own civil ceremony or wedding reception at the Grand Hotel or any other Irish venue, we’d love to help bring your vision to life.
