Ireland has many things going for it, despite the economic upheaval of the present. In years past a major point of economic trade for the country was its agricultural exports but times are changing and Ireland is moving along with these shifts. The country has now moved more towards what is known as a knowledge economy - meaning that there is a greater focus on modern technology, trade and services. The economic upheaval of 2008 hit Ireland hard and it was the first member of the EU to declare that it had officially entered a recession period.

That being said, although modern ways, means and methods are affecting everything in the world around us, Ireland has a rare quality which adds great value to locals and visitors alike. The country's rich history is highlighted by ancient relics of the pre-Christian and Christian Dark Age period and no county in Ireland is host to more of these fascinating sites than County Meath. Why should this be considered important in modern times? The fact of the matter is that such relics are more important than the simple belief that to understand our past is vital to our future.

Throughout every form of media and entertainment tales of knights, kings, queens, heroes, villains and noble courts abound. What is it about this era of human history that so captures our imaginations and inspires us? That question alone could fill an entirely different article but it bears some thought. Something here captures our hearts and reminds us of simpler times where immediate action rendered immediate results. County Meath contains dozens of spectacular ruins and historical sites which instantly transport one into the realms of ages past where warrior kings battled tyrants (often other warrior kings or warlords themselves) for land, power or religion.

The Hill of Tara is an ancient sacral site which was used as the location for the performance of the rituals to crown the historical kings of Ireland. This beautiful hill is located near the River Boyne and simply setting foot on its slopes takes one on a deep journey of the imagination. The fact that modern archaeologists are far from uncovering all the actual facts of what the complete functions of the Hill were only inspires one more - perhaps it will be you and your family who stumble upon a new piece of the puzzle?

Around the hill are monuments, a ring fort (at which ancient Roman artefacts were uncovered), barrows and burial chambers. Trim features its famed and splendorous castle, the largest of its Norman kind in the country, as well as the impressive ruins of an old monastery. Meath itself is also home to Kells with its round tower and monastic history. These proud and ancient heritage sites are sewn into the fabric of our imaginations and it is for this and many other reasons that Meath is such a celebrated holiday destination. The many things to do in Meath make it the ultimate family vacation destination as the imaginations of both parent and child take flight.

This gives you the peace of mind in knowing that you will have the full and undivided attention of our team of wedding experts, as well as the entire grounds to yourself on your special day
