We wanted to go with a timeless wedding theme. We went with white roses and gypsophila with some greenery to make an elegant, dreamy atmosphere for our special day in our stunning venue of Adare Manor.

[field title=”Proposal Story”]
For our anniversary, Mark took me to London as a surprise, and I didn’t know where we were staying until we pulled up at the Shangri-La in London. I thought we were going out in London for dinner, but Mark had already booked for us to dine at the hotel. We then got taken to a hotel room which was filled with red roses, pictures of us around the room, a guitarist, and a photographer. It was so romantic. He then proposed that we have an amazing meal whilst admiring the view of London at night.

[field title=”Wedding Gown”]
In my head, I always wanted to feel like a princess on my wedding day, as I feel like it’s the one time in your life you get to wear a dress like that. It was always my dream to have a Berta dress, and as soon as I tried it on, I knew it was the one. It was the first dress I tried. I love the gorgeous embroidery on the bodice and flowy romantic look, which I think fits well with our stunning venue of Adare Manor.

My bridesmaid dresses were elegant simple v neck stunning ivory dresses that again I wanted to look back on and be happy that I didn’t pick a colour I might regret. I’m so glad I went with them as all the girls looked stunning in the photos and everything blended so well with the overall look of the wedding!

With our theme of the wedding being a black-tie event, the groom and groomsmen were all classic black-tie suits with satin lapels and bow ties. They all looked amazing.

[field title=”Food & Drink”]
Our food and drink were provided by our amazing venue, Adare Manor, whose food is extraordinary. The attention to detail is incredible, and the service on the day was unbelievable. We went with a chicken Caesar salad to start, a traditional Irish vegetable soup, chicken and beef main courses, and his and hers desserts to finish! We then had late-night food at midnight, which everyone loved.

[field title=”Florals & Decor”]
Our florals and decor by Bronagh were out of this world. Our dream came to life, and we couldn’t be happier. For our ceremony, we had a gorgeous, deconstructed arch of gypsophila and roses with more flowers down the aisle. In the main ballroom, we had incredible ceiling flowers that made the room feel complete. We had a custom-built stage with ivory draping behind. On the top table, we had a gorgeous runner of gypsophila and roses with long candles on every table for a romantic effect. Individual tables had tall centerpieces with hanging tea lights. It was all so stunning! Our table plan sign was amazing for our favourite people. It was exactly how we pictured it.

[field title=”Wedding Cake”]
Our cake design was unbelievable to Deborah. It was a 4-tier masterpiece with a stunning bow design, and we loved it.

[field title=”Readings, Ceremony Music, Reception Songs”]
For our ceremony, we wanted to keep it very simple; we had no readings, just our vows. Romy, our celebrant, was incredible and made it feel so special. Mark entered the ceremony to “I don’t want to miss a thing” by Aerosmith, bridesmaids entered to “This” by Megan McKenna. Then my dad walked down to “I get to love you” by Ruelle, and Mark picked all of our music together, and we loved this part of wedding planning! We signed the register to “Dreams” and walked back down the aisle to “This Will Be an Everlasting Love,” which I have always loved from my favourite film, The Parent Trap.

[field title=”Special Detail #1″]
I was walking down the aisle and seeing each other’s reactions. We both stood there feeling like we were in a dream to have all our loved ones there supporting us!
[/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #2″]
Before our guests saw the ballroom, the event band played us “Ain’t no mountain high enough” on our own. It was a feeling we will never forget seeing your vision come to life. Our setup was like something I had never seen before. It was so beautiful, and the event band was just incredible; it didn’t feel real.
[/field]
[field title=”Special Detail #3″]
Was were on the dance floor together, surrounded by everyone. We love seeing everyone having the best time. That feeling can’t be beaten!
