I first met up with Tara and John a few weeks before I had the pleasure of photographing their wonderful August wedding in Hotel Doolin.  When the day arrived I travelled to Tara’s house, just outside Ennis and started off  by documenting all the goings on.  With it being the first wedding in the family the house was full of laughter, a little nerves and lot’s of love.  Tara’s sister Orla was maid of honour and she was helped by three of Tara’s closest friends to make sure everything ran like clockwork and what a job they did!!!

When I arrived at Kilshanny Church John and his groomsmen were eagerly welcoming their guests, many of whom had travelled from his native County Waterford to celebrate with the lovely couple, they also had two of the cutest flower girls in all of the land.  The nerves were starting to kick in but once they held each others hands at the top of the aisle the nerves just drifted away and the excitement of the day began to take over.

We headed to Doolin after the ceremony and made the most of what that part of the beautiful Clare landscape had to offer, it was onto Hotel Doolin for the celebrations where one hell of a party was getting ready to kick off!!!

Here’s a little from their super day!!!!
