Hollie and Mark
The Venue: Ballynahinch Castle
Set amidst the stunning landscapes of Connemara, Ballynahinch Castle offered a picture-perfect backdrop for Hollie and Mark’s special day. Its timeless charm, surrounded by lush forests, a gentle river, and the rugged beauty of the Twelve Bens, made it a romantic haven for their celebration.
The natural beauty surrounding Ballynahinch Castle offers endless opportunities for stunning wedding photographs. Whether it’s a romantic shot on the riverbank, a candid moment under ancient trees, or a dramatic portrait against the mountain backdrop, every photo becomes a timeless keepsake.
The Day: A Journey Through Beauty
Hollie and Mark began their wedding day with a heartfelt ceremony at Clifden Catholic Church, where they exchanged vows in a setting steeped in tradition and warmth. Afterward, the couple made their way to one of Ireland’s most breathtaking beaches, Dog’s Bay, where they captured stunning seaside photos that embodied the serenity and joy of their union. Florals on the day were provided by the ever talented Mark of The Garden.
The journey continued with an evening photo shoot at Pine Island, a secluded spot surrounded by ethereal beauty, where the golden light added an almost magical quality to their portraits.
Finally, the couple arrived at Ballynahinch Castle, greeted by a warm welcome on the sunlit terrace overlooking the tranquil river. Guests gathered on the terrace, basking in the golden hues of the setting sun, as heartfelt speeches filled the air with love and laughter. It was a moment that perfectly encapsulated the spirit of the day—intimate, joyful, and utterly unforgettable.
The Bride: A Golden Vision
Hollie turned heads in a jaw-dropping gold Vera Wang gown, exuding sophistication and individuality. The shimmering dress perfectly complemented the opulence of the venue while reflecting Hollie’s unique style. Paired with Jimmy Choo shoes, her bridal look was nothing short of iconic.
Mark, equally dashing in a Ralph Lauren suit, matched the timeless elegance of the day, while the bridal party dazzled in Nili Lotan dresses, tying the aesthetic together seamlessly.
