At Òran Mór our intimate weddings are just as special to us as our larger events. But intimate weddings are more common now than they ever have been with serious restrictions affecting the wedding, events and hospitality industry as a result of the Covid-19 aftermath. For Jen and John, an intimate wedding ceremony and reception […]

Laura Sinnett got in contact looking for a wedding venue for her and fiancé Craig to get married in May 2019. The couple were newly engaged after having their second child only months before. When I first met Laura I couldn’t believe she had only just had a baby – she looked phenomenal! One of […]

Anna & Tim’s story is very different from any we have documented before. The couple got in contact in March 2018 looking for a venue for an intimate wedding reception for around 40 guests.
