The Sheddings Event Venue

About

LOOKING FOR THAT SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT DIFFERENT?  You won’t find anything more unique than The Sheddings for your magical wedding day. 

A unique & tranquil location

Set in the heart of 1500 acres of ancient woodland, surrounded by the famous Glenarm river, Glenarm Castle has opened its estate to this new and exciting wedding venue, offering​ the perfect location to say I Do.

The First Tipple

Between your ceremony and reception, enjoy your first tipple as a married couple in our designated drinks reception area located on our front lawn beneath a stretch canopy to allow for the good old ‘Norn Irish’ weather. With the Glenarm River gently flowing at the foot of one of The Glen’s Of Antrim there’s no better spot to toast to a life of happiness, love and wedded bliss.

The Sheddings is a fully licensed venue and can provide an extensive range of drinks including wine, draft & bottled beer as well as bespoke cocktails created specifically for your special day.

The Main Event

Our custom built stretch tent marquee comfortably seats up to 200 guests for large weddings yet will be equally intimate and equipped for smaller, more personable weddings and special occasions.

Complete with tables, chairs, cutlery, glassware and a breathtaking view over the Glens Of Antrim, our custom built marquee is perfect for those wanting a simple and elegant reception.  Make our reception tent your own by adding candles, floral arrangements, fairy lights and more to create a romantic and intimate setting like no other.  Should you wish to add your own personal touch, we would be happy to recommend one of our approved suppliers to help you to create your dream look.

Let’s Party

Dance the night away with your nearest and dearest on our dedicated dance floor whilst the marquee is transformed from a dinner setting to the ultimate party to celebrate the newlywed couple. With bespoke cocktails, the finest wines and draft beer on hand, we can accommodate just abut anything you and your guests desire.

Should your guests need a break from dancing the night away, they are welcome to retire to The Sheddings Lodge for a well deserved seat in our lounge area and a chance to catch up with old friends.

Should you wish to add that extra special touch to your evening reception, there’s nothing more romantic than seeing The Glens Of Antrim lit up with a stunning fireworks display.
