Radisson Blu Sligo Wedding

Congratulations to Sinead and Caolan who were married in a beautiful wedding ceremony in St Patrick’s church Strandhill on the 3rd of June 2016 followed by a brilliant Radisson Blu Hotel wedding reception for their families and friends. The 3rd of June was an absolute belter of a day – the sky was blue the sun was hot and old mother Ireland was looking her best. Although I was suffering a bit in the heat (I’m a fan of cool Autumn weather) both Sinead and Caolan took it in their stride as they both now live in Australia so this was probably a bit cooler that what they are now used to! I started the day off with a trip to the Radisson Blu Hotel in Rosses point in Sligo. Both Sinead and Caolan were getting ready in the hotel so it made it super easy for me to get coverage of them both getting ready. I first met with Sinead and her bridesmaids Aoife and Eimear who were all busy getting hair and makeup done by the very talented Muireann Mc Dermott. The room was a hive of activity with the three little flower girls Caoibhe, Ciara and Arya especially excited about the day about to unfold before them.

To give the girls some privacy we went to Caolan’s room to get a few photos with himself and his groomsmen Joseph and Gavin before they left for the Church. The boys looked very impressive in their tailored suits and I really liked the superhero socks and matching cufflinks. On our arrival at St Patrick’s Church in Strandhill in Sligo met up with Caroline from Pink LimeVideo who was on videography duty for the day and as always Caroline produced the magic for the wedding video. The guests were all gathered outside in the glorious sunshine having a good chin wag before the proceedings got under way with the arrival of the Sinead and the bridesmaids in the bridal cars. I love being able to capture lots of candid photos of the guests both before and after the ceremony as they mingle and chat. The ceremony went off with only one hitch – the one that mattered between Sinead and Caolan – and as soon as the greeting line had dwindled down we got the family photos done inside the Church at the beautiful Altar.

Once we had the family photos taken care of we got in the cars and made our way out to the beautifully scenic Rosses Point for the bridal party photos. The first stop was on the cliff tops of Rosses point with the majestic and iconic Sligo mountain Benbulben as our backdrop. We got some bridal photos and some couple shots before moving down to the outdoor bathing pool for a few shots on the long stone pier with Sligo bay stretching out as our background this time. Working quickly as always (it’s a party day and not a photo shoot after all) we got our shots and moved on to the beautiful Radisson Blu Hotel for the wedding reception. On arrival at the hotel Sinead and Caolan received a rapturous welcome from their guests who were sitting outside enjoying the afternoon sun and a few well earned drinks. I was able to get plenty of candid photos of the guests before they were called in to the ballroom for their meal. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sinead and Caolan for having me as part of their beautiful wedding day and I would like to wish them both the very best of everything for their future – and please keep sending the sun our way.
