You know we're all about a real wedding that makes us smile, and this pair, beaming non-stop on their wedding day is pretty contagious. Catherine and Michael met at university in Dublin, but took their friends and family to the West Coast for their wedding at The Lodge at Doonbeg, Trump International in Clare. Conor Brennan captured the fun celebration, from the bride's beautiful big day style and the pretty florals, to the couple's emotional speeches and craic-filled reception.
Catherine's wedding upstyle is the perfect blend of unfussy and elegant.
Catherine & Michael met at college, “We were in Social Science in UCD together.”
The couple got engaged while they were staying at Castle Leslie for Catherine’s birthday.
Don't try this at home folks!
The bride and groom knew instantly what they wanted from their wedding, “Good food and great craic for everyone in a beautiful setting.”
If there's one wedding moment always turns us to mush, it's a dad/daughter first look!
Meet Teddy and Harry, the couples too-cute page boys!
The couple headed to the beach for their wedding photos with Conor Brennan Photography.
It was the setting in County Clare that drew the couple to their venue, “The amazing views, the great food, and the friendly/obliging staff in Doonbeg.”
These beauties wore pretty tea length blush dresses with vintage-inspired embellishment. The succulent-laced bouquets give their look a contemporary feel.
Tall floral arrangements and slate table names brought a colourful, natural feel to the bright reception space.
This bride and groom have some simple yet solid advice for other couples, “Enjoy it! Everything will get done so don’t sweat the small stuff – it really does go by in a flash.”
You know we've got to give it up for brides who take the mic - Go Catherine!
The couple kitted out a selfie station for their guests.
After the wedding, this pair jetted across the Atlantic for an epic three-stop honeymoon, “Havana in Cuba for five days, Mexico for ten days, and Miami for five days.
Now didn't we tell you these two were a smiley pair! Thanks so much to Catherine and Michael for sharing your beautiful big day with us, and of course to Conor Brennan Photography for sending the gorgeous photos our way.
