Orla & Stephen

We arrived at Orla’s Sisters house for the Bridal Preps and we were made so welcome. Everything was set up ready for us in a room, this saves so much time on the morning as all the dresses and shoes etc are there ready to put on!  Orla’s dress was stunning and the bridesmaids were just beautiful. I loved the cream band around the waist of the dresses! Orla was a very laid back bride, nothing seemed to phase her at all however she didn’t trust the Bestman with the rings (only joking Noel) she gave that job to her gorgeous wee niece Ava. There was also the most prettiest wee flower girls on the day Ria and Gracie-Rae. How lucky to have three gorgeous girls on your bridal party! Orla’s wee nephew Brogain was the pageboy and her other nephews Caiden and Conor were Ushers!

The boys arrived in a white Range Rover, me jealous, never!! Stephen and the boys brought the rain with them and it poured down! Even when the bridesmaids arrived they had to be escorted in with umbrellas! Orla arrived and couldn’t wait to get up the Aisle to see Stephen! Fr Hughes conducted the Ceremony and Niamh Mc Glinchey provided the lovely singing!

When all the paperwork was signed and a few photos taken in the Church off we headed to Lissan House for the photo-shoot! The Bridal Party were great, they done everything we asked and the craic was mighty! The Family photos were taken and we finished off with Orla & Stephen on the staircase in Lissan.

Mickey Mc Elhatton was ready with the Champagne when we arrived to the Greenvale Hotel in Cookstown. The cake was unreal, 4 tiers high and I loved the BIG O & S letters!
