Today's real wedding is the result of months of planning and few more cancellations than this couple had expected but the results are just gorgeous. Resilient couple Dani and Shane had the celebration they had always dreamed of in the wonderful Boyne Hill House Estate despite all the restrictions and proof is in the pudding - or the wedding pictures! They are fantastic inspiration to any other couples currently navigating planning a wedding through the pandemic. We're delighted to share this inspiring wedding (and modern lovestory!) captured by Emma May Photography.

Dani and Shane's love story starts where so many others have these days - Tinder! Yes, we can chalk that one up as yet another success story because three years later the pair were engaged!

Speaking of the proposal, Shane told us about the private moment he shared with his now-wife and all with an incredible view. "The proposal was amazing," Shane said. "We went for a walk up the Sugarloaf just like we did on our second date - almost three years earlier to the day! We got to the top and I proposed. Dani said 'yes' and we had a glass of prosecco to celebrate."

From very early on in the planning process, this pair knew that they wanted to create a day that would have all of their guests feeling comfortable, safe, and able to enjoy the day with them. After months of restrictions and a postponed wedding, they made the most of their Plan B nuptials and all in the gorgeous surrounds of Boyne Hill House.

And when choosing the venue, Dani and Shane made up their minds pretty quickly. "The location and the staff were just amazing," Dani told us. "Áine and the team were amazing. They were so helpful and made us feel at ease despite what could have been such a stressful day."

While apprehensive about restrictions and how they might interfere with their wedding, Dani and Shane ended up celebrating their big day, big style. "It was such a great opportunity to let off steam after all the tension around the planning and especially since we had to postpone it once already after the wedding was meant to take place in May," Dani told us. "We were apprehensive at first, given the pandemic, but in hindsight, we couldn't have wished for a better day!"

Yes, after months of lockdown restrictions, Dani and Shane finally had their big day and it was just as special as they'd hoped. "The day was made all the more emotional and special because we finally got to see our friends after being in lockdown for so long!"

For this pair, when it came to their wedding, they wanted to focus on enjoying it after all it took to get there, and now, that's their advice to others. "Enjoy it, the day will fly by and be over before you know it," Dani said.

Thanks so much to Dani and Shane for sharing their incredible day with us and to Emma May Photography for being there to capture it in all its glory! You'll find more photographs from their day in the gallery below.
