Our garden terrace &amp; 6th floor terrace always surprise the bride &amp; groom as they are hidden gems in the city centre and are ideal for those alternative photo opportunities. We\u2019ve also had less formal affairs in our V\u2019nV Restaurant and Sky Suite on the 7th floor. I think the couples are blown away by the 3 different types of Weddings we can cater for.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Which do you prefer&#8230; Summer weddings or winter weddings?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Personally I prefer a Winter Wedding. I love the crisps evenings and how the City feels during the Winter. It\u2019s a colder time of year but I think they\u2019re more unique as most people don\u2019t go for them as much. I adore Weddings between Christmas &amp; New Years. Everyone is off work anyways and are home for the holidays so you might as well have them all at your Wedding while you have them in the country!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20094\" title=\"Behind the Scenes at Radisson Blu Royal Dublin\" src=\"https:\/\/weddingdates-wp-ie.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/2013\/12\/62731.png\" alt=\"Behind the Scenes at Radisson Blu Royal Dublin\" width=\"979\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/62731.png 979w, https:\/\/weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/62731-300x117.png 300w, https:\/\/weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/62731-750x295.png 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 979px) 100vw, 979px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>The day of a wedding must be busy and exciting in the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel after months of planning with couples?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I really enjoy the build up to the wedding day. As a Wedding co-ordinator you get to deal with the couple from a quotation stage right through until they have their first dance on their Wedding night. The relationship build with the bride and groom throughout the whole experience is so nice. It\u2019s a breath of fresh air and a break from organising regular events. There is no better feeling than the couple thanking you on their special day and saying \u201cIt was perfect and the best day of our lives\u201d. My favourite part &amp; really rewarding!<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>What do you do to unwind when you\u2019re not planning weddings?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I love to travel. I\u2019m always planning my next trip to keep me going throughout the year. I visited New York, Las Vegas &amp; Thailand in 2013. On my list for 2014 would be Amsterdam &amp; maybe Greece for a summer break. I also love going to see musicals and enjoy a little bit of karaoke every now and then.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20095\" title=\"Behind the Scenes at Radisson Blu Royal Dublin\" src=\"https:\/\/weddingdates-wp-ie.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/2013\/12\/1512444_609203809134011_931100027_n.jpg\" alt=\"Behind the Scenes at Radisson Blu Royal Dublin\" width=\"960\" height=\"631\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/1512444_609203809134011_931100027_n.jpg 960w, https:\/\/weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/1512444_609203809134011_931100027_n-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/weddingdates.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/1512444_609203809134011_931100027_n-750x493.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Tell us about your menu options?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Our menu options can be whatever the bride &amp; groom want.
