The Vibe at Hen's Teeth
Greg and Rosie, co-founders of Hen's Teeth, know a lot about throwing weddings in their 2,500 sq ft gallery, café and event space in the buzzy, bustling surrounds of Dublin 8. This is because they had their own wedding there in 2019! At the time of planning their big day, they knew they wanted a city centre venue but couldn't find one where they could create the kind of party they wanted - so they decided to host it themselves. Since then, they have hosted many weddings for couples looking for flexibility when it comes to food, drinks, entertainment in order to throw an exceptionally good bash in a convenient Dublin location.
The Space at Hen's Teeth
The industrial feel of this award-winning, open-plan space is perfect if you're looking for a unique aesthetic for your big day, as you can hire this cool, artistic space exclusively for you and your guests. Floral installations pop beautifully against the concrete interiors and the rotating selection of colourful art and eye-catching murals at Hen's Teeth adds to the contemporary style of the venue - meaning you will need to do very little to it, and it will still have that wow factor. Can you just imagine the amazing photos?
