We got Married on the 14th of March at the Earl of Desmond. Everybody had a fantastic weekend. All the Staff, especially Norella and Mark, are so friendly, helpful and efficient. Norella helped us through our wedding all the way along, she made it so easy and Mark such a lovely person. The Hotel is absolutely gorgeous, clean and very spacious. The venue was magnificent, if I to decorate it myself, it would look exactly like that, so they made our dream come true. Since the day we are still getting compliments for the food. Everything was perfect, it was like a fairy tale wedding and Tralee such a beautiful place, so many things to visit. So from myself, my husband and all our guests, we thank you from the bottom of our heart for making our wedding day a day to remember. We wish you all the best and May God brings more success and fulfilment to the Earl Of Desmond.
