Wedding Planning in Ireland & Italy
Beautiful weddings, thoughtfully planned and enjoyed without the stress.
Congratulations on your engagement!
Planning your wedding should be an exciting time, full of ideas, possibilities and things to look forward to. But between finding the perfect venue, coordinating suppliers and keeping track of all the little details, it can quickly become overwhelming.
That’s where I come in.
Hi, I’m Claire, the founder of Pleanálaí Weddings & Events. I help couples plan beautiful, personal weddings in Ireland and Italy, taking care of the details behind the scenes so you can enjoy the journey just as much as the day itself.
Whether you’re dreaming of a romantic Italian villa, a celebration in the Irish countryside or a weekend surrounded by your favourite people, I’m here to help bring everything together in a way that feels right for you.
Your wedding, your way
No two couples are the same, and I don’t believe wedding planning should follow a one-size-fits-all approach. Some couples want a helping hand from the very beginning, while others simply need a little guidance or someone to make sure everything runs smoothly on the day.
That’s why I offer a range of wedding planning services tailored to what you need, with support that works around your plans, priorities and budget.
From the first venue search to the final details, I’ll be there to offer advice, keep things organised and help make the whole experience feel that little bit easier.
How I can help
Destination weddings in Italy
Dreaming of saying “I do” in Italy? From beautiful villas and historic estates to finding trusted local suppliers and coordinating all the logistics, I’ll help you plan a celebration that brings everyone together for an unforgettable few days.
Planning a wedding abroad doesn’t have to be complicated. With the right support, you can enjoy the excitement of creating something special without feeling overwhelmed by everything that goes on behind the scenes.

From elegant country houses to relaxed celebrations in beautiful Irish settings, I help couples bring their wedding plans to life here at home too. With experience in the Irish wedding industry and a passion for all the little details that make a celebration special, I’ll help you create a day that feels personal, welcoming and completely yours.

A little about me
I’ve spent over 12 years working in the wedding industry, and I still love what I do. I know how much goes into creating a wedding, but I also know that the best celebrations aren’t just about how everything looks. They’re about how the day feels, the people around you and the memories you make together.
Before founding Pleanálaí, I worked as Wedding & Event Manager at The Lodge at Ashford Castle in County Mayo. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of helping wonderful couples plan their weddings in both Ireland and Italy, and I feel incredibly lucky to be part of such an important time in their lives.
For me, it’s all about getting to know each couple, understanding what matters most to them and making sure they feel supported every step of the way.
Let’s start planning
Whether you’re only beginning to explore ideas or already have your venue booked, I’d love to hear what you have planned.
Tell me a little about your wedding, where you’re hoping to celebrate and what kind of support you’re looking for. We can chat about your plans and find the best way for me to help.
You can also pop over to my Instagram for wedding inspiration, helpful planning tips and a little look behind the scenes at the weddings I’m part of.
I can’t wait to hear from you!
