Ireland is a small but beautiful country off the coast of England, most well known for its diverse landscape. If you have the time, drive across the country stopping at small towns that meet your fancy. Killarney National Park and Cliffs of Moher are some of the top attractions in the country. For those planning to exchange their vows in Ireland, the registrar needs to be notified in person at least three months before the wedding date. Couples are given a marriage registration form, which can be extended for up to six months from their original wedding day.
