The Brehon Leads the Way with Virtual Reality Technology

Published

on

The Brehon is among the first hotels in Europe to introduce new cutting-edge, virtual reality technology which enables people anywhere in the world to take a tour of the hotel’s facilities. 

And couples set to celebrate their wedding at The Brehon were the first people to experience the new technology at a special coffee morning on Sunday. 

“Our new Virtual Reality Tour is specifically designed for people planning their wedding celebrations. Rather than just trying to imagine their wedding day, this tour enables couples to experience, from the perspective of the bride and groom, what The Brehon is like on a wedding day,” explains Weddings Sales Manager Sharon Devine. 

The immersive 3D experience takes users on an animated show-around of the hotel from the red-carpet arrival reception right through to the gourmet wedding banquet. By simply donning a headset, users will be able to view three dimensional, animated images of the hotel.

“We have created this tour to help couples get a sense of how their Brehon wedding will unfold. Instead of sending you a brochure or asking you to view an image online we can now put you in the picture,” says Sharon. “We can immerse you in our beautiful surroundings and let you experience what it is like to celebrate your wedding at The Brehon. It will be particularly useful for couples planning their wedding from abroad.” 

The Brehon virtual reality tour travels to the Wedding Journal Show which takes place in Dublin’s Citywest Convention Centre on September 22nd and 23rd. Couples attending the show are welcome to come along to stand D5 and give it a try. The Brehon team will also attend the Brides of Kerry Show in The Great Southern on Sunday, September 23rd

To celebrate their new virtual reality experience, The Brehon team are offering 25% off any wedding booked to take place between January 1st and March 31st 2019 (Terms and Conditions apply). 

For further information or to book your virtual reality tour contact The Brehon’s Wedding Sales Manager, Sharon Devine by phoning 064 6630700 or emailing sharon.devine@thebrehon.com
