Beautifully lived.
Calm behind the scenes.
Present with you on the day.
Finnella Weddings is one of First Dance Ireland's top recommended wedding planning professionals for couples looking for a calm, personal and beautifully organised experience.
Finnella is a wedding planner and on-the-day coordinator focused on helping couples stay fully present throughout one of the most important days of their lives. With experience managing weddings behind the scenes, she anticipates the details, coordinates suppliers, manages the timeline and handles the unexpected with warmth, professionalism and genuine care.

First, we understand what you actually need.
Before recommending the right planning support, First Dance Ireland offers an initial discovery call to understand your wedding, priorities, timeline and where you would most value help. If Finnella is the right fit for your celebration, we can then guide you towards the next step.

One celebration.
One connected experience.
First Dance Ireland began around one of the most meaningful moments of a wedding: the first dance.
Today, the concept goes beyond the dance floor by connecting couples with carefully considered wedding services that can work together across their celebration.
Wedding planning can connect your first dance, wedding invitations, wedding website, photography, bridal beauty and wedding-day details into a more cohesive experience.
Experience behind the scenes.
Calm where you need it most.
Experience You Can Trust
Hospitality and wedding experience bring practical knowledge, confidence and attention to every detail of your day.
Personal to You
No two weddings are the same. Your plans, priorities and vision stay at the heart of the planning process.
Every Detail Considered
From timelines and suppliers to the small things happening behind the scenes, the goal is to make sure nothing important is overlooked.
Calm from Start to Finish
Professional, organised and reassuring support gives you the freedom to relax, be present and enjoy your wedding.
Be a guest at your own wedding.
The kind of calm
couples remember.

Helpful information about our personalised wedding planning and coordination services in Ireland.

Do you offer full wedding planning?
Finnella offers personalised wedding planning and coordination support. The exact scope is agreed after a discovery conversation so the proposal reflects what your wedding actually needs.
