Helen & John

A good Kerry wedding but we headed further up to the west coast to Clare for the service and the reception. The bad weather held off so we got to play with a helicopter for the day - always a bonus when you are caught for time!

It was a good dry day for November and the attentive staff at Dromoland Castle make any wedding a bit more special.

fungi lives on…

Fungi is the infamous solitary dolphin that lurks around the mouth of Dingle harbour. Where did he come from and why did he stay? Who really knows. I always assumed he was part myth (for the tourists) or some rubber prop (ala JAWS) towed behind a boat but according to the skipper of the Lady Laura, it’s the same dolphin out there for the past 24 years…

Instead of all the usual locations for photographs, Nikki & Colm booked a boat trip to go and find him. A bit brave for November but very enjoyable and well worthwhile.

Kilts and castles

Kilts are always colourful and fun for a wedding and Ross Castle in Killarney seemed to add to the theme of this Scots/Irish wedding.

Jeanette & Niall

A great young couple married at the ever popular Fossa Church recently with the reception at the Brehon Hotel in Killarney. Great first name on this groom and a very cool dress on this bride!
