I’m really excited to be blogging this wedding, I already posted one photo from it recounting my close shave with the steps at the beginning of the ceremony. Thankfully the rest of the wedding was a breeze, Tonya looked stunning and both she and Ian are lovely people with a great sense of fun so the two of them together in Ballybeg House = a dream wedding. This first photo is of the Grouse Lodge near Ballybeg House where Tonya and her bridesmaids got ready:

Tonya bought her dress on eBay and it was amazing, the train was so long it took up half the room and she wore a beautiful Gone With The Wind style corset under it. Her waist was tiny.

It rained all morning and then just as it was time for the ceremony the sun came out and they were able to go ahead with it under the gazebo looking out at the Wicklow Mountains:

The groomsmen all wore blue runners and so did the extremely cute flowergirl:
