Weddings are costly and try as you might to keep the budget down, it's far from easy.

We imagine that the idea of winning money towards your dream day would be fantastic news for any couple in the midst of wedding planning and one Kerry hotel is doing just that. Yes, Muckross Park Hotel & Spa has launched a very exciting competition, €10,000 towards a wedding at their five-star location in Killarney. It's been estimated that the average Irish wedding can cost as much as €25,000 (every celebration and the subsequent cost is different of course) so it would be pretty amazing to have a significant portion of that paid for.
