Getting Married?

If you’ve got engaged, you’re thinking of popping the question or you’re getting married soon, chat to us about a loan for your special day.

Whether you’re planning a small intimate gathering at home or abroad or a lavish all bells and whistles celebration to say “I do”, we’ve got a flexible Wedding loan waiting for you at Blackrock Credit Union.

We love giving happy couples everything they need to create memories that will last a lifetime and make their special day even more special – from securing that dream venue to planning the perfect party. Your wedding loan can be used to pay for any wedding expenses including your engagement rings, wedding reception, dress, flowers, photographer, videographer, cake, wedding cars, music or honeymoon – in fact anything that will help make your special day perfect. A wedding loan from Blackrock Credit Union means you will have money to spend upfront, so you can start planning and paying deposits for your special day now even if you don’t already have enough savings to cover all your wedding expenses.

The average cost of a wedding is currently €36,000 according to research carried out by onefabday.com but you don’t have to spend that much on your big day – it could cost as little as the non refundable €200 for your notification fees. So if you think you might need some help making your dream wedding a reality in 2024 or beyond, talk to us today about a personal loan for your wedding at 11.9% (12.6% APR) for loans €1,000 – €5,000 and at 9.9% (10.34% APR) for loans from €5,000 – €75,000.

For example, a €10,000 wedding loan paid back weekly over a 5 year term at the current rate of 9.9% (10.34% APR) will cost approximately €49 weekly, the cost of credit will be €2678 and the total amount to be repaid will be €12678.

The repayment terms of your flexible wedding loan will be designed to meet your needs and there are no penalties if you want to pay back your wedding loan early if you are lucky to receive cash as a wedding gift and as you only pay interest on your outstanding balance you will pay less interest overall.
