Mary & Robert | Dorset | Lovebirdshoot

June 18th. 2013 | 2 Comments

With out doubt I have fallen head first, madly in love with this couple. Their love is the sweetest and gentlest I have seen in a long time. Their love is magical. It is pure. We first met Mary & Robert back in October, the afternoon of the Heineken cup match between Leinster and Exeter Chiefs. We had been in contact by mail and phone long before. I was buzzing with excitement and nerves by the time they walked into the lounge of the Westbury Hotel that afternoon. Robert had thought that he was the only one mailing us , he was wrong. Mary had too. The whole hour long I was was repeating in my head “Don’t blow it Kate, Don’t open your mouth, Um hum, Don’t ruin the…View Full Post.

Nancy & David | The Hibernian Club | Wedding

May 21st. 2013 | 4 Comments

Oh my goodness!!! How I heart this wedding of Nancy and David. It was like a whirl wind romance that has stayed all cosied up in our hearts. Every year I warn Sean that we are going for dinner on valentines weekend. Now even though he can be romantic, he would much rather stay at home and hide from the madness that is the pink ballooned and red rosed holiday of St Valentine. Not one to give up, I had kept the weekend free… you know just incase!  Naturally when the email from Nancy and David came through in January I assumed there had been a typo and they had meant February 2014 not February that was approaching in a few weeks!! After a quick Skype call we were smitten kittens…View Full Post.

Maria and Ian | Kilshane House | Wedding

May 15th. 2013 | Leave a comment

Maria and Ian kicked started our 2013 with their fantastic Kilshane wedding.. You may remember this loved up couple from their Kilkee Lovebird session which we blogged in January and if you don’t go and check it out now. Myself and Sean were only thrilled to see sunshine on our drive out to Tipperary, even if it was sporadic.. every little beam counts. I still had echos of our last meeting ringing in my ears “try to be have like adults and no silly jokes.” I think we lasted all of ten minutes. Now there were no silly jokes but there was lots of laughter. Do you remember the incident with six one news reader and his makeup? Hmmm yes well some of the girls had not seen it. As fast…View Full Post.

Caitriona & Fintan | Dunraven Hotel | Wedding

April 03rd. 2013 | 2 Comments

I’m really delighted to share Caitriona and Fintans Dunraven wedding pics with you. I have known Caitriona for what seems like years now. Her happy sunshine smile would cheer up the dullest of days! We used to work next door to each other, Caitriona in the physios and myself in the dental surgery. I have to say that I do miss the regular morning wave or the quick exchange of news as we passed each other at lunch brakes! I digress, this is Fintan and Caitrionas story not a stroll down memory lane! Now Caitriona had told us that Fintan was a totally easy going laid back chap… and she wasn’t joking!! The day before, Sean and myself did the “drive through” of the day. As we passed The Cottage…View Full Post.

Lorna & Kevin | Mullingar Park Hotel | Wedding

March 18th. 2013 | 4 Comments

First of all Happy St Patrick’s Monday! I hope you all had a very merry and green weekend. It seems strange to have a blog out for one of the greatest “Irish” holidays that is celebrated the world over. In fact I wasn’t even going to blog this week. A nagging feeling plagued me and then I remembered that for one couple St Patrick’s night is very very special indeed. It was on this day all the way back in 2002 that this couple met. Kevin said that he was dazzled by Lorna’s looks (so were we) and after some Dutch courage he asked Lorna out. We are so incredibly glad that he did, other wise we would never have met them 52 days before their wedding and would not have…View Full Post.

Jess & Peter | Vaughans | Wedding

March 12th. 2013 | 4 Comments

We spent a few days last week in the very beautiful Doolin Co Clare. While there we drove all over The Burren and I was reminded of Jess & Peters wedding last September. What a day that was! Jess was introduced to us through one of our friends Annie. From the very first email we were in love with Jess { and I swear it has nothing to do with the fact that Jess loves when it snows as much as I do} . A happy go lucky American who was spending her summer studying and working in Germany. We were in contact mostly via email and never quite got to Skype due to poor dial up and a really bad traffic jam which Jess described in wonderfully colorful Irish…View Full Post.
