Your Wedding Planning Guide for Ballymena

Getting married in the City of the Seven Towers tends to be a relaxed affair because Ballymena doesn't attract heaps of tourists. Here, your wedding guests will be able to have a lovely, romantic weekend, enjoy a quiet pint, tour the Braid Museum and Arts Centre, and perhaps if there's time, immerse themselves in a bit of history. Many people aren't aware that Ballymena has been inhabited by humans for around 9,000 years! There are stone age and bronze age settlements along with other historical areas of interest here, plus plenty of nice restaurants to enjoy before and after a day out. As you peruse Ballymena wedding venues, you'll find that your options are quite varied but all will be picturesque and charming. Of course, if you don't find what you're looking for here, remember that Ballymena is just a 30-minute journey from many beautiful Belfast wedding venues.

Where to Find Romance Browsing Ballymena Wedding Venues

It's surprising more couples don't get married just for the excuse to have a wedding in Ballymena! Known for sprawling estates with lush lawns, gorgeous restored barns, castles, coach houses, and walled gardens, wedding venues here are truly romantic. You'll also find posh hotels where the staff will treat you like royalty, and parkland decorated with a gleaming white marquee to crown your exchange of vows.

The Easiest Way to Find a Ballymena Wedding Venue You'll Adore

Finding the wedding venues in Ballymena will be one of the easiest items on your to-do list. Choosing one? Much more challenging! The first step will be making a list of the Ballymena wedding venues that really speak to your heart (and can accommodate your guest list). From there, you'll reach out to each of the venues on that list to find out if they're available on your preferred wedding date. When the answer is yes, you'll make an appointment to tour those venues with a manager or wedding coordinator as your guide.

These walkthroughs can be as short as half an hour or as long as two or three hours if you're chatting with on-site caterers or decorators in addition to your guide. Many couples find these tours a bit overwhelming because there is so much to see and so many questions to ask. You may find it helps to come prepared with a list of questions so you don't forget to ask about any important details. Always ask about what's included in the venue's wedding packages and how they're priced; if you can set up a tasting before booking; what deposits are required to book; and if you can use your own vendors. You should also ask to see menus and decor samples, and if you're celebrating outdoors, about how they handle iffy weather.

My fiancé and I arranged for a viewing with wedding coordinator Donna Cummings. Donna welcomed us on arrival and took us to a lovely quiet area so we could chat privately. Donna asked us both what we were looking for and what our budget was for the wedding! Donna explained what packages the Galgorm offered and then showed us the venues. The first being the four seasons suite. What could we say, I’ve never seen a man speechless like my fiancé. It was just magical and that was only the beginning. Donna lead us into the next room where our guest would eat and it was breath taking. The crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling and the glass window overlooking a waterfall in your own private garden. We both fell in love with this room. We moved on to where we could be married. Ghosts house was bright and beautiful, very elegant. Phamtom house was complete opposite it was more tranquil, warm and ideal for bigger weddings. We moved on to view other venues in the Manner house for bigger parties, again both breath taking. We both thanked Donna for all her time and left excited for our special day. We obviously viewed other places but four season suite stole our hearts and the package that was offered. Communication between Donna and I was outstanding. Any issues, it was asdressed ASAP. Fast forward wedding day 21 August 24. What can I say, best day EVER! I just turned up night before with all my accessories for the day, explained what everything was for and where it needed too go. The rest was taken care off. I choose to stay the night before to make it less stressful. I felt like a princess, nothing was to much bother. The log cabin was just perfect for the bridal party. I can honestly say the staff were amazing from start to finish. Anything you asked for they fixed the issue straight away. Events Manager Hannah was exceptional. Always near by, nothing was an issue for her to sort or do. A great asset to the company, I can really see Hannah go far within her career. The food was fabulous, staff worked hard and excellent customer service. We had our dream wedding, and no better place than the Galgorm.

We were married at Lissanoure Castle on 25th July 2015 and it was the most beautiful day in every way due in no small part to the absolutely amazing care and attention to detail of Sheryl, Trisha and Amanda along with the rest of the staff. Our wedding was a very moving and bitter-sweet occasion for our family and Lissanoure were so thoughtful and sensitive towards us all. Everything was perfect, nothing was too much trouble and all our family and friends will be talking about it for years to come. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the most perfect wedding day we could have ever wished for. Una and Coco
