Clare decorated our civil ceremony in January and we couldn't have been happier with her decorating. She transferred both our ceremony and reception room into something so beautiful with her use of her fairy light trees/pallet wall with her personal touches all around the rooms with much attention to detail. On a more personal note, Claire is very easy to deal with and her packages are completely customizable and with her keen eye her suggestions made our day even more magical than we had imagined. We would recommend her over and over again to anyone looking to decorate their special day. Thanks Clare! Xx

Claire was absolutely brilliant from beginning to end. We got married in my garden and Claire had a pretty big area to transform but it didn't deter her and she took it on without a sweat. She totally transformed the place and was just so easy to deal with. Her decor is fabulous and she has great attention to detail. She was light-hearted and good craic too on the lead up to the wedding! Id highly recommend her.

I highly recommend I Do Candle Lighting! Claire was so lovely to deal with, she even spent a Saturday morning to come to the church to meet me and go through the decor. The decor was absolutely fabulous, when I approached the door of the church on our wedding day I loved looking in and seeing the beautiful arch, fairy lights, lanterns along the aisle, the trees and more. She has great attention to detail. Everyone has been telling us how beautiful the church looked. With everything going on lately the decor lifted everyones spirits that day and made our day extra special. We are so delighted with everything and how it all looked. So happy we went with I Do Candle Lighting!! Thank you again Claire !

Clare could not of done more for us and our wedding! Due to covid all plans changed last minute and Clare was always at the end of the phone. People still talk about the beauty of the church even weeks later. Clare also decorated a local restaurant where we held our reception. She transformed it from Restaurant to stunning romantic hide away. Highly highly recommend booking with Clare, you won't be disappointed!!

Claire is amazing to deal with. Her product and professionalism is second to none. On our wedding day we moved from inside to outside and she had this done with no stress to herself or our guests.

We were very fortunate to have Clare decorate our church for us. We got married in an old beautiful church which Clare was familiar with. She knew what would work in the venue and let us tailor our package to suit us. She moved her beautiful blossom trees to our hotel after the ceremony at no extra charge.

We booked Clare to decorate our curch for our wedding in November. It's a really small church and it was important to me the decoration wasn't overpowering, but I also wanted lots of candles! Clare was an absolute dream to work with, helpful, friendly and responsive ad on the day...WOW! So many people commented on how the church looked, it was so magical! I would, and already am, recommending Clare to everyone!
Response from I Do Candle Lighting
Thanks Donna. Glad I got the balance right. Cratloe is a small but very beautiful church and we can never have too many candles right ???? xx

We asked Clare to decorate the Church for our wedding and she was absolutely fantastic. From the first communication to Clare she was always so lovely and helpful and listened to what we wanted. She travelled down to Kerry to cater for our wedding and we were so so happy with how beautifully she made it. She is absolutely fantastic and so lovely to deal with.

Clare decorated our ceremony room for our Humanist ceremony. I was always worried about the room looking like a typical hotel meeting room. That was until we met Clare. She was great from start to finish and transformed the room into an amazing and beautiful setting for our special day. Everyone in the ceremony complimented the room and even the hotel agreed the room had never looked better. If you are looking for someone who can take your ideas and create the wedding you always dreamed of then Clare is the person for you :) I would highly recommend her for any future couples out there...

We got married on the 14th July 2018 in the St Mary’s Church the Claddagh and the reception was held in the Galway Bay Hotel. Claire was phenomenal to deal with from the very beginning. Her expertise and eye for detail is outstanding. The church was decorated with elegance and beauty. Our guests are still talking about it six months later. She then transferred the decor from the church to the hotel. It added sparkle to our magical day. I can’t recommend Clare enough. She did an amazing job.
Response from I Do Candle Lighting
Thanks Jacqueline. As you know Claddagh is one of my favourite venues. It is just perfect for my candle and fairylight decorations. Have a wonderful Christmas

Claire was so friendly and so easy to work with, I gave her an idea of how I wanted it to look, knew she would know better than me in how to decorate it so left her the reigns and my god did she deliver. Fantastic service all the guests were in awe of the room as none of them had ever been to a civil ceremony before. Claire converted a few that's for sure it was so stunning.

Clare did an amazing job decorating our church venue. The church interior colours are very strong and not great for the background of photos. Clare's decor meant that we didn't even see those colours on the day as the lanterns, draped veil at the entrance and very tasteful pew ends enhanced the church. An older family friend who attends the church every day even commented that the church had never looked so well! Clare was a dream to work with and I'd highly recommend her services to all couples!
Response from I Do Candle Lighting
Thanks Louise. I loved decorating for you especially as the church was my local parish growing up, I even made my confirmation there so it was a treat for me too. Wishing you a lovely first Christmas as a married couple xx

Of all the suppliers that we dealt with in the planning of our wedding, Claire/'I Do' Candle Lighting were top of the pile. The quality of the service that Claire offers is second to none. One of my favourite bits of the day was how the cathedral looked. She was a pleasure to deal with and I knew after a single meeting with Claire that the church decor was one thing off the list of things to worry about. It was in Claire's safe and competent hands. She's extremely good at what she does. She was recommended to me by a friend and I would have no hesitancy is recommending her to others in the future.

Clare is one of the amazing person I have met. She knows how to transform a barren lace into a beautiful venue. I was fortunate to have found her and she did a brilliant jaw dropping job leaving all the guest baffled. She made the event so special. Im a perfectionist and prefer to concentrate on finer details and She is so approachable and has taken care of minor details, from organising material to decorating to the highest level of perfection. beyond my expectation... She was my saviour and my hero for the day.. thanks a million Clare for making the day s special and putting smiles on everyone's faces..keep up the good work..good luck .. ????

I cannot thank Clare enough for all her hard work. She is an amazing lady. :)

Clare was an absolute doll to deal with from start to finish. She was a dream and not once did I worry about how my church would look. I was blown away walking up the aisle morning of my wedding. In fact I barely seen my groom I was so taken with the decor at first :-) I'm really not a "flower" person and explained this to Clare so she beautifully decorated with the candles and some flowers it was my DREAM church. Guests have been commenting since how the church decor was the nicest they've seen yet.

I Do Candle Lighting is AMAZING & really sets the scene for the day. The only thing for the bride to remember is that Claire is a busy lady and might need access to the church a day or two before the wedding in order to set up. Make sure u know ur local priest or church caretaker so you can gain access if you need to do so.

We wanted to drop you an e-mail to express our sincere thanks to you on what a fantastic job you did on the day. From the first moment we met you were very professional and full of great ideas. On the day in question you showed up early and decorated the Church to an impeccable standard. So much so that it drew many compliments from the congregation. Your service was first class and very reasonably priced. For adding what you did to our wedding day we cannot thank you enough. Kind regards, Conor and Elaine Fleming
