Clare and Darragh were engaged in Spain, therefore, when it came to planning their wedding, heading out to the sunny South of Spain was an easy decision. Along with their friends and family, Clare and Darragh said “I Do” in one of the oldest churches in Mijas. Built in 1612, this church was stunning nestled in the mountains of this tiny village. Getting ready at the Hacienda, Clare and her little boy along with her bridesmaids, had a blast as she put on her Chantilli Lace gown by Pronovias.
My sister in law suggested it to me. She was helping me look. I loved it straight away and knew I would buy it. Started to look for it and because it was last season, it was no where to be found up and down England and Ireland. I just let it go in my head. On a visit to Ireland (where my family and friends live) my brides maids had booked me into Chantilly Lace for a viewing. I didn’t like any of the dresses until I took a second look at one. I said is this dress (name) by Pronovias? The lady said yes. I was over the moon, looked at it on me for 20 minutes and then snapped it up.
I moved to London to nanny by brothers new baby. I decided to get bar work at the weekend so I tried the Shanakee the next town over not knowing the area. This happened to be Darragh’s local so that was how we met.
In Barcelona.
We went shopping one day, done all the shops bar the last one. As we walked in the suit was just there!
Everyone was just happy and laughing.
Bad skin – that was ok
Not fitting into the dress – that was ok too
Crying in the church – I was calm so the opposite
Providing friends and family with an amazing party and celebration.
2 days later my brother and Darragh’s sister got engaged.
Really professional Very accommodating Very patient
Wanted the sun. We would have chose France but as a Roman Catholic you can’t get married there. Seeing as though we got engaged in Spain and seeing as though the venue was amazing we were 100% for Spain.

List every possible photo combination/idea you can think of – if you don’t use it, it doesn’t matter Either the bride or groom should be in charge on the day unless your going to have someone practice your whole schedule
Do it Be organised Delegate No more than 100 guests Don’t get drunk
Being such a nice and interesting person, I was able to get on very well with you. This allowed me to be as comfortable as I could be in front of the camera. I was able to trust you in getting the shots no one else would. I didn’t have to chase you or tell you what to do.
