Welcome
We are traveling from New Orleans to Dublin (leaving July 10th and we arrive in Dublin on the 11th). There's a ten mile race we're planning on doing Sunday (wish us luck, and join us if you please!..links listed below). We will stay in Dublin 11th-14th. We are renting a car and making our way to Ballyvaughan (where the wedding is!) and staying there the 14th-17th. We will head to Galway on the 17th and go to a music and arts festival there that Saturday the 18th. We will make our way down towards Cork and we fly out of Cork on Tuesday, July 21st.
Feel free to follow along with us or just meet us at the wedding!

Ballyvaughan
We booked our rooms here for the wedding (checking in on the 14th and out on the 17th): https://www.gregans.ie/?gclid=CjwKCAiA6vXwBRBKEiwAYE7iSyXIuGDThpmVesEKpLoWsqTwLDzYUwjviLpefrimUYZYLWWB6SK8EhoCeJ0QAvD_BwE They only have a total of 21 rooms so if you're wanting to book here, I suggest doing it soon! I also booked one extra room, so if they do book up and you want to stay here, let me know and if it's still available I can transfer it to you.
I also know a few people booked here: https://www.thewildatlanticlodge.com
Airbnb has cute places, too!
Ballyvaughan is a pretty small place so anywhere you find in the area should be close. I do recommend checking out the distance from Gregan's castle to the hotel you choose because we will provide transportation from Gregan's castle to and from the wedding venue and the reception.
Here's a few with distances:
2.4 miles from Gregan's Castle: http://cappabhaile.com
