Slane, Co. Meath
An 18th-century manor set across 80 acres in the Boyne Valley, Tankardstown House pairs its walled garden and glass-roofed Orangery with some of the most photogenic light we work with anywhere.
We've photographed and filmed several weddings hereThe Walled Garden doubles as a genuine kitchen garden — herbs and vegetables grown there actually make it onto the wedding menu, and the resident bees keep busy among the yew trees during ceremonies.
Bright, naturally lit, and seating up to 250 — even on a grey Irish day, the Orangery gives us soft, even light for reception photos.
The approach to the main house is a favourite spot of ours for newlywed portraits — it's grand without needing much styling.
Couples who want their dog part of the day have a genuine option here — always a lovely, unscripted addition to the photos.
For couples curious about the wider area, Slane Castle and its whiskey distillery sit just down the road.
Tankardstown sits close to some of Ireland's oldest heritage sites — a detail some couples like to weave into their day for out-of-town guests.
Let's talk about capturing your day here — photography, video, or both.
