Following the “yes” vote in Ireland‘s May 22 referendum on same-sex marriage, Tourism Ireland is rolling out a campaign targeting the LGBT community for weddings and honeymoons in the country.

The campaign, which is being rolled out in nine markets — including Britain, the United States, Canada, the Nordic region, Australia, France, Spain, Italy and Germany — includes advertising on Facebook directing people to a specially-created section on Tourism Ireland’s website, Ireland.com, which is highlighting wedding venues and “dreamily romantic locations to tie the knot”, as well as cool bars and clubs. It also features a brand new video showcasing Ireland's spectacular scenery and The Outing, an LGBT matchmaking festival, an offshoot of the Lisdoonvarna Matchmaking Festival which takes place in October.
