A favorite church for getting hitched

This is the charming Our Lady of the Wayside Church. It can be found in the scenic village of Kilternan on the foothills of the Dublin Mountains. It is locally known as The Wee Blue Church after its Marian color. It was built in 1929 out of timber and is similar in style to churches found in mid-America. It has a seating capacity for only 150 people and has become one of the most popular choices as a Dublin wedding venue with more than 2,000 being recorded so far. One of the more famous weddings in recent years was Olympic gold medalist Ronnie Delaney who is also a member of the local congregation. Our Lady of the Wayside is the patron saint of travelers and her feast day is celebrated on the 24th of May. Kilternan means The Church of Tiarnain in Irish and is one of the few villages in Ireland that doesn’t have a main street.
