It was a privilege to be invited back to the Monaghan household for another big occassion! Kathryn & Philip where the first of my weddings the week after Christmas. You do so much running around at weddings – its was a good way to work off the Christmas dinner(s).

So here’s a few photos:

Now to the chapel. Mr Monaghan’s expression just makes me laugh in the next one – I’ve included the more sensible one below it for good measure

Galgorm!

The bridesmaids where very classy indeed..

Love the next 3:

The red against white is really striking – perfect for this time of year. The room at the Galgorm was beautifully decorated – really amazing.

Neil & Claire – Galgorm

Neil & Claire’s wedding was nice and wintry. The closest thing to a white wedding this year! I’m going through a wee spell of having seriously awesome couples who are very easy to work with – and this one was no exception!

Here’s a few photos:

Below: colour co-ordinating your bedroom around the bouquet – shows dedication

Below: 2 flowergirls or 3?

Slippy roads – good job they had plenty of horse power

Now to the Galgorm:

Wasn’t sure whether or not to blog the next one – but its one of those photos that makes me smile – so it passes the test

Love the sunset light in the next few:

Below: I got one of these done – i’ll stick it on my facebook in the next few days. Will make you laugh!

Anytime Claire & Neil are together there’s fireworks! Neil organised these as a surprise. So how did he lure everyone outside at 8pm in freezing temperatures? He told them the photographer was taking a group photo! They must have thought I was a complete plunker – but shortly thereafter all was revealed!

Sean & Louise – Galgorm Resort & Spa

It doesn’t seem that long since I met Sean & Louise at a wedding fayre – and now they are married!! The church was just up the road a bit for me, then down to the lovely Galgorm.

Here’s a few wee photos!

Then we headed off to the church in Finaghy….

Its kinda hard to describe the decor of the church. Its a little 70′s, a little 80′s – almost a little Art Decor or something. Anyway, given that the Irish weather was doing it’s thing we took a few indoors – I think they are pretty interesting!

Very pleased with this next one (its not often I say that):

The river was really raging at the Galgorm which made for a nice backdrop. This is the moment that Louise’s umbrella went for a little white water rafting ride..:-)

James & Jill – Mount Stewart

It’s funny how I’d never done a wedding at Mount Stewart – and then I was there twice in two weeks! There are very few venues which you could visit and take two completely different sets of wedding photographs. Really is a lovely place and I know it means a lot to James & Jill. Talking about James & Jill – what a great couple. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bride smile as much!

So here’s a few photos:

And now for Jill’s two favourite people (apart from James of course )

After the service there was tea – those scones are making me kinda hungry

So over to Mount Stewart…

After Mount Stewart we travelled up to Galgorm Resort & Spa. The photo below left is at Galgorm, The photo below right is at Mount Stewart (and I love it!)

Charleen & Christopher got married at the end of March and had their reception at Galgorm.

From the first time I met Charleen I knew it would be a stylish wedding – and indeed it was! I love the dress, shoes and pretty much everything else! Enjoy!
