The Luck of a Irish Elopement
I was first contacted by Emily via my website and I was excited to visit Northern Ireland. This my first visit to the island of Island and it was always going to be a great adventure, made all the better by photographing this wedding. After months of back and forth organising the time line and details the day arrived. As I flew out, I knew this wedding would be small and intimate surrounded by stunning landscapes and architecture. As I arrived at the location of the Air BnB for the preparations my breath was taken away by the scale and beauty of the building. A stunning Georgian house with acres of land and details inside to match the beauty of the house.
As I walked in Emily & Morgan were opening a gift from Emily’s brother, a perfect moment to being the story on. Shortly after this the preparations began and Emily was accompanied upstairs by her sister to begin her hair. Whist Emily was perfecting her make-up she had prepared a letter for Morgan to express her feelings. This left Morgan highly overwhelmed and emotional as he finished off getting ready for the day ahead. Once both parties were ready they met for a first look on the ground floor of the house and Morgan was mesmerised.
Bangor castle – The perfect wedding venue
Following a small portrait session and family portraits we made our way to the wedding venue, Bangor Castle. Upon arrival Morgan set up a zoom link to all those back home for Emily before the ceremony so they could stream it live. The ceremony itself was heartfelt and genuine with the couple writing their own vows and sharing a tear. We then made our way to the walled gardens at the castle for a few portraits and champagne in the Northern Irish sunshine. Once we had shared a drink and got some photographs we decided to make our way back to the AirBnb to relax. When everyone was back at the house there was a secondary ceremony conducted by Emilys brother Brian. This was a slightly more religious ceremony which was held in the living room of the house.
A tradition in Emily’s family at Christmas is to write cards and send books prior to Christmas Day and she decided to carry this onto her wedding day. With this each guest received a card written from the heart and a book, specifically chosen based on their interests. This was a special and tender moment as everyone accepted their gift and read their card in front of everyone else. At this time, the wedding breakfast was approaching, not before two speeches from the brides sister and father. Both were full of gratitude and meaning making everyone shed a tear.
