Whether you’re a sustainably-minded couple, a self-confessed foodie, a gardening enthusiast, or none of the above, you’ll be instantly charmed by Airfield Estate in South Dublin. A working urban farm located in Dundrum, just 15 minutes from the city centre, it’s a hopelessly pretty, sprawling sanctuary that also serves as a one-of-a-kind wedding venue. Hidden away on 38 acres of farmland, you’ll find lots of lovely ceremony and reception space options, including a light-filled Victorian home, and a chic restaurant. Well-suited to intimate weddings to larger bashes of up to 110, Airfield Estate is one of our favourite Dublin venues, so we hope you enjoy taking a digital tour in this post!

The Space at Airfield Estate
One of the best things about Airfield Estate is just how versatile it is – the team work really hard in collaboration with each couple to create a unique day that perfectly suits their personalities. And you’re really spoiled for choice when it comes to ceremony and reception spaces. You can exchange vows under the pergola in the ornamental Walled Garden, in minimalist haven The Hive, or in the historic Airfield House. And yes, Airfield Estate is fully licenced for civil ceremonies!
For your reception, there’s the aforementioned Airfield House, which seats up to 52 guests in its light-filled Library, or the airy Overends Kitchen, which seats up to 110 guests.

The Vibe at Airfield Estate Weddings
There are two words that we always use about the wedding offering at Airfield Estate – gorgeous and intimate. In warmer months, guests can even enjoy the beautiful gardens and couples can make the most of that space for their wedding portraits, as we saw in Ronan and Kathy’s flower-filled wedding. The team are also masters of the all-day reception, which means that your guests can enjoy mini dishes throughout the day while they explore Airfield House and the Walled Garden. If you like the idea of a garden party-style wedding with a difference, this could well be the spot for you! And while there’s no accommodation on site, the team will happily provide you with a list of lovely nearby hotels for you and your guests.
The Food and Drink at Airfield Estate Weddings
Renowned for its farm-to-fork cuisine, Airfield Estate really is a food lover’s dream come true. Much of the food served is grown and produced right on the estate, meaning that the menus will always be sustainable, seasonal, and local.
Because of the hyper-seasonal nature of dining at Airfield Estate, the team is happy to provide more information about wedding menus upon request based on your proposed wedding date.
The Highlight at Airfield Estate Weddings
It’s impossible to pick our favourite thing about this beautiful estate so we’ll choose two instead – the effortless, seasonal cuisine and relaxed atmosphere. The Airfield Estate Instagram account makes us want to pack up our lives and move to the countryside, stat!
