A fabulous day at Ballymagarvey Vilage

November 01, 2020  •  Leave a Comment

A fab day at the wonderful Ballymagarvey Village, one of Ireland's premiere wedding venues.

Fiona and Shane tied the knot on a wet day in the middle of summer but that didn't stop them and their guests having a fantastic day. The morning began in Ballymagarvey with Fiona and the girls getting ready at the venue. The advantage to having two photographers meant Lorraine could stay with the girls while Denis went on to Shane and the lads who were getting ready in Navan.

With Shane being a big hurling fan we had time to stop off at the local pitch to pull on a few sliotars before heading on to the venue. Once there we met up with the celebrant, Joe Armstrong. Now Joe is a great man to go through the fine details with the groom, even down to practicing the ring exchange. Of course not having a bride to practise with, he roped in the singer, the wonderful Laura Colgan to stand in for Fiona.

Another advantage of having two photographers at your wedding is our ability to capture two different angles during your ceremony. You get to see moments that a single photographer just cannot capture.

After the ceremony it was a quick dash through the rain over to the house for the drinks reception.

Luckily we got a break in rain and the bride and groom along with their bridal party came outside for a few fun photos in the stunning grounds of the venue.

Then it was time to head back into the stunning banquet hall which Fiona and Shane personalised with their own touches. Shane is a huge Bob Dylan fan, so the tables were named after his favourite Bob Dylan albums. The couple framed LPs and put them on small wooden easels in the centre of the tables. Their sweet wedding favours were CDs with some of their favourite songs. They used single LPs with a personalised sticker as placemats.

No practising for Shane as he let Fiona take the lead to “If Your Prayers Don’t Get to Heaven” by Brian Fallon played by the fantastic Men In Black.
