Davison’s wedding bash boosts Powerscourt coffers

One of Rosanna Davison’s three wedding bashes in summer 2014 contributed to the luxury five-star Powerscourt hotel and spa at Enniskerry, Co Wicklow, recording earnings of €700,000 last year.

The former Miss World held a glitzy wedding celebration at Powerscourt in June last year and new accounts show that the event contributed to revenues at the hotel increasing by 11% last year from €13.4m to €14.96m.

Damien Gaffney, chief investment officer of Tetrarch Capital, the company that owns the hotel, yesterday said: “The hotel delivered an excellent performance in 2014 with strong growth in revenue and occupancy rates.
