Small church Meath

acia

We've just booked Station House Hotel for our wedding next October. We are really hoping to have civil service at the hotel, but on the off chance that we can't get anyone to conduct the service on the date we want we have decided to look into church wedding. We will only have close family at the service about 17 people. So I am looking for suggestions of very small catholic churches in the Navan, Kilmessen area.
Thanx

There is a very small church in Kiltale (Just off the Trim Dublin road) it is about 15min drive from the station house.

Theres a lovely little church in Johnstown just outside Navan Town (near Athlumney/Boyne View estates)
My FBIL got married there a few years back and they only had 17 at the ceremony and it didnt look bare or anything.

My sister attended a wedding there and said they stopped off at a gorgeous church on the way via Trim, so it must be the one mentioned above. I have 2 weddings there next year one using a church in Leixlip and the other the church up Johnstown in Navan.

Church in Culmullen just off the Trim road is really nice

Dostoevsky

Just had Culmullin/Culmullen church recommended to me as well. Then I thought of Ráth Cairn, as I'm going to have the wedding in the Irish. So, I'm going to head down there in the next couple of days to see what it looks like.

I'm also going to check some of the monastic ruins around Meath as that would be really different in my book.

PS: Just thought of Rathfeigh church. It's actually a really, really nice and secluded one next to a twelfth-century Norman motte and bailey. Check it out.

Yeah, Johnstown church is also nice (was at a wedding there very recently). Appropriately enough, it's directly across the road from a shop named High Maintenance. Still think Rathfeigh is, from the outside, really nicely located in terms of seclusion and privacy.

That is a fab church border.

Really nice and is quite narrow

I finally signed up to Flickr in order to show these photos of Rathfeigh church which I took late on the afternoon of 28 December 2009. I didn't know how to embed any of my photos into this thread as BorderFox did in her impressive photo above.

What I liked about Rathfeigh most of all was the seclusion, down a little cul de sac as it is.

See here for twenty-one photos of Rathfeigh Church.

With the help of somebody on another thread, I worked out how to put a Flickr image of Rathfeigh Church here (apologies for the quality):
