Emma & Andy - Larchfield Estate Wedding

Emma & Andy - Larchfield Estate Wedding Photography

We're building a house at the minute, and accidentally, without noticing, fell off the blogging wagon. Which we're actually gutted about, as there's so much good stuff to share and just never enough time...

So this is Emma & Andy's wedding from last year. They're professional dancers - did you guess? There's just so much life here. We just had to get it off our hard drive and into the world! 

Emma & Andy's wedding was at Larchfield Estate. That's where we got married too, so it's always a bit of a special one for us. Styling was by the inimitable Alise Taggart. It was featured on Ruffled not so long ago.

Thanks for sticking around, dear readers...

Christabel + Roy /Wedding in the Oldest Pub in Ireland

Not a dry eye in the house. And barely a minute passing without huge belly laughs either.

Christabel and Roy's wedding was about the most authentic, heartfelt day you could imagine. Fist-pumping couple, sword-fighting kids, impromptu karaoke from Christabel, people passing out asleep on the sofas, Guinness galore... Wedding heaven.

It was also a bit of a history tour, with their wedding ceremony at Clifton House - a Georgian manor and one time Belfast poor house - and a reception at Grace Neill's - the oldest pub in Ireland.

I came home from Christabel and Roy's wedding wide awake and still laughing. Thanking my camera for scoring me the invite to the party of the year.

Ps. if you're thinking of getting married in a pub, you're our kinda couple. Do it! And give us a shout!

Winnie + Simon //Mussenden Temple Wedding

When we posted a single image on facebook, the first frame here of Winnie and Simon at Downhill Demesne, Winnie wrote back, 'So beautiful. Puts us in our proper perspective. A tiny part of an epic sky'. I loved that.

Winnie and Simon's day blew me away to be honest. They got married in Mussenden Temple, with friends and family forming a circle around them. The circle was a constant - the temple walls and the dome above, the wedding bands and the cycle of Atlantic waves 120 feet below us. They mixed together two vials of sand, from Sandymount and Downhill, the two beaches they grew up on. The vows that they wrote themselves were poetic, beautiful, heartfelt. They choked me up.

Later on the speeches, no less poetic than the ceremony, set everyone off again. Myself included.

This wedding will stay under my skin for a long time I think.
