Personalization – a hallmark of The Dromoland Collection experience – is included in the package as well, of course:

From the largest detail to the smallest, from a skiff on the lough to rose petals on the lass’s pillow, the groom-to-be can rest assured that he and his lady will have memories to last a lifetime.
