Sarah wore a beautiful fishtail wedding dress. It was a figure-hugging, low back, sleeveless, lace and sparkly dress.
“We had a small church ceremony in St. Peter’s and Pauls’s Church Crecora, as our faith is very important to us. It was an uplifting ceremony as my brother and his friend, Clodagh sang for us. This was such a privilege.”
“Our wedding venue was very personal to us. A lot of history has gone on in the Woodlands for us both. They were very supportive to both Tom and me and we couldn’t recommend them enough.”
The bridesmaids wore gorgeous sage green dresses, each selected to suit their individual personalities. The groomsmen wore grey suits with navy waistcoats to match Tom’s suit. Nicky, the page boy, wore a matching suit to his daddy, Tom.
Tom and Sarah chose Kaspar from Black Diamond Photography to capture their wedding day. They couldn’t recommend him highly enough! He was very professional, had a good presence on the day and took amazing photos that they love.
Their wedding entertainers were Tone Deaf Band. Tom and Sarah loved that they were highly entertaining and engaging, with amazing singing! It’s not easy to get a small crowd going, but Tone Deaf did an amazing job of doing just that.
Tom’s favourite memory from the Big Day was the first dance, while Sarah’s was walking down the aisle to see Tom.
“Don’t be afraid to go for a small wedding. We would do it all over again. We were both so comfortable and the guests say the same.”
