Description
Located on a private 22-acre woodland estate overlooking the Glashaboy River in Cork, our family-run hotel provides a calm, personal, and non-production-line experience. We operate a strict one-wedding-per-day policy, ensuring that our historic villa and its grounds remain exclusively yours. From our newly built outdoor ceremony space to our light-filled ballroom, we provide a seamless flow for couples who want everything in one magnificent location near Cork city.
At Cork's Vienna Woods, your wedding is a curated journey through our historic estate. Most couples begin their day in our Bridal Suite & Prep Room, a dedicated space designed for a relaxed morning.
For your "I Do," choose between the timeless elegance of our indoor suites or our Outdoor Ceremony Space, nestled within the trees. Following the ceremony, your guests will enjoy a sophisticated drinks reception in the John Peter’s Suite, which offers direct access to our manicured gardens.
The celebrations culminate in the Magner Suite, our grand ballroom where award-winning dining meets historic charm. To see how these spaces come together, browse our Real Wedding Stories or view our full Wedding Gallery for inspiration.
We believe the planning process should be as enjoyable as the day itself. Our experienced team is here to guide you through every detail, from your initial Wedding Enquiry to your private Wedding Tasting.
Our Hotel is the ideal choice for:
- Exclusive Celebrations: Couples seeking a "one-wedding-per-day" guarantee for total privacy.
- Nature Lovers: Those dreaming of an outdoor woodland ceremony or garden photography.
- Family-Focused Planning: Couples who value a personal, family-run approach rather than a corporate hotel feel.
- Convenience & Flow: Guests who wish to host the ceremony, reception, and overnight stay in one place.
- Luxury Preparation: Bridal parties requiring a dedicated, spacious Wedding Prep Room on the morning of the celebration.
- Grand Capacity: Our historic Magner Suite is one of Cork’s premier ballrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 400 guests for an award-winning wedding banquet.
- Ceremony Excellence: We offer seated ceremony spaces, both indoors and outdoors, for up to 250 guests (seated) and 400 standing, ensuring a sophisticated setting for your vows.
- Introducing 'Grá': Our newly opened outdoor marquee, Grá, is now available for bookings. Nestled in our private woodland, it offers a romantic and sheltered space for ceremonies and drinks receptions.

From our very first meeting with Mary Anne we knew that we were going to get excellent, professional and personalised service on our wedding day. And that we did. The venue, staff and service were amazing and the food was incredible. We have had nothing but positive comments from our guests. Thanks again Mary Anne to you and all the team in Vienna Woods for making our day so special.Highly recommend Vienna Woods as a wedding venue.
