A closer look
A place with character.
Fallon & Byrne is a city centre wedding for people who care about food and do not want to leave town. The Exchange is a bright room with chandeliers looking over the arcade, hired exclusively, with the kitchen downstairs doing the cooking.
There is no accommodation, but you are surrounded by hotels and everyone can walk. All inclusive arrangements are available, which keeps a city wedding from turning into six separate contracts.
Before you book
Worth asking.
- Is the room exclusively yours, and until what time?
