Tankardstown House Wedding - C&D

I love getting to capture wedding at Tankardstown House It’s a gorgeous venue in Meath. Even better getting to capture the wedding of people I know! Below are all the highlights of the day!

Bellinter House Wedding

It was one of the hottest days of the year when P&F got married in Bellinter House, Navan. Bellinter is one of my favourite venues to shoot in. The venue is gorgeous, staff are lovely and the food is superb ;)

Whatever the weather, you can guarantee there’s plenty of nice spots for photos!

P&F had a brilliant day with their nearest and dearest. they got ready together in the Bellinter suite before their humanist ceremony officiated by Niamh Davis Humanist Celebrant. Onto the drinks reception where speeches were held outside before going in for dinner and then dancing the night away!

G & D - A wonderful wedding in the Millhouse Slane

We’d been looking forward to this wedding for a while! When we first met G&D in 2017 and they chatted about their wedding plans, we knew it was going to be one to remember!

All of the day was held in the beautiful Millhouse in Slane. One of my top five favorite venues! The weather played ball which is always helpful ;)

Tom was hand second shooting and capturing the lads getting ready while I covered the ladies in the coach house before the afternoon ceremony with Vincent from the Spiritualist Ceremonies Ireland.

I adored their wedding style completely and as you can see from the photos below, there is plenty of it. Without further ado, check out our highlights!

J & S - A beautiful Summer Millhouse Wedding

I’ve always been a fan of the Millhouse in Slane. It’s always a warm inviting place to work! Back in November 2017 I photographed John, Sinead and their son down in Glendalough for a lovely family session and was so delighted when they asked me to be their wedding photographer!

In true Millhouse fashion, the day was relaxed and the weather co-operated! Both J&S got ready on the grounds which is always nice as it means no rushing to get to the venue.

The beautiful Spiritualist ceremony was performed by Minister Miriam Fitzgerald who is always lovely to work alongside.

After this it was onto a fab drinks reception outside on the gorgeous grounds of the Millhouse. When we get the weather in Ireland, a drinks reception outside is the best thing ever! Everyone was out enjoying a relaxing in the sun while we whisked the couple off for a few minutes of portraits.

We want to say a huge thanks to Sinead and John for having us there to shoot there day. They were absolutely the nicest people to work with and we wish them so much love for the future!

J & O - Beautiful Spring Wedding in Tankardstown House

Jade & Owen got married in Tankardstown last Spring. Their day started off nice and relaxed as they got ready at home before heading to Tankardstown (where Jade and her girls got dressed, the boys stopped off in the pub ;) The atmosphere was super chilled as the girls got ready. Jades big reveal in her dress was an emotional one, particularly when her dad came in the room. It’s always a special moment to witness!

I always enjoy shooting in Tankardstown. It a lovely warm venue and the staff are really lovely. 

The ceremony was a humanist one which took place in the gorgeous orangery (where dinner would be held later that day) It’s a beautiful room for a ceremony in all weathers as it’s bright and spacious.

The lovely Eithne Dempsy was on hand to officiate the ceremony. Eithne always creates a lovely atmosphere and performs a lovely ceremony. 

After this we went into the beautiful gardens for some portraits before joining everyone for drinks and celebrations!

Wandering around the dinner room, details such as Gin bottles were used at vases, little Hendricks gins for favours and the cake table was mouth watering. (Would love a doughnut now ;)

Speeches were held before dinner, which is always nice as as it usually means anyone nervous can enjoy their dinner better after ;) There was plenty of laughter and  tear shed or two. After that it was our time to leave. 

We felt so at home with Jade, Owen and their family on the day. It really was a beautiful day that went off brilliantly. We wish them all the best for many decades to come!

C&J - True Love in Bellinter House

This was a very special wedding for us.  Tom's cousin was marrying his long time love. We arrived that morning to Bellinter house bursting with excitement for these two! They decided on a first look outside under the trees before preparing to walk up the aisle. The best way I can describe the day was just pure happiness and the love was palpable in the room as they spoke their vows. The speeches during drinks reception evoked tears and laughter and the craic on the dancefloor was mighty - thanks to Tom for capturing some epic moves!   I'll let the images speak for themselves so check out our highlights!
