Mill Park Hotel Wedding Siobhan + Conor

Congratulations to Siobhan and Conor who were married on the 8th of April 2017 in St. Agatha’s Church Clar followed by a brilliant wedding reception in the Mill Park Hotel in Donegal town for their families and friends. The 8th of April was an absolutely beautiful spring day with glorious sunshine and white fluffy clouds gliding across the sky on a gentle breeze- it also happened to be one of the biggest days of Siobhan and Conor’s lives – their wedding day. I started off  a trip down to Tullyearl where Siobhan and her bridesmaids Emma and Mary were getting ready The girls were all very relaxed and Ciara McGroarty from Pure Indulgence was busy doing the make up and making sure everyone looked their best and Tara Dorrian was busy getting the hairstyles perfected. Eoin was on hand to help us out by popping the bottle of champagne and we got some lovely photos with all the girls before we left them to relax as we made our way to Clar.

On arrival at St Agatha’s Church we met with Conor and his groomsmen Mark and Adam who were busy meeting and greeting the arriving guests. We got some photos done with the boys just before Siobhan and the girls arrived in Michael Gallaghers beautiful Mercedes from Donegal Wedding Cars. After the ceremony the guests all chatted and basked in the sunshine and this allowed me to capture loads of candid photos of everyone- a real favourite part of my day. We got the family photos done inside the Church and then it was off for the location photos.

Our first stop was back to Tullyearl to Siobhan’s mum’s house and her amazing garden. The amount of work that must go into getting and maintaining a beautiful garden like it would give me knee and back pain thinking about it but it really made for beautiful wedding photos  in a location so personal to Siobhan. From there our next stop was down at Murvagh beach- the great thing about Murvagh is that it has both the sea view and a woodland and both locations are reached by simply crossing the road. The ground is always firm in Murvagh thanks to the sand and it is very easy to manoeuvre about for the girls even with high heels on. We got some amazing wedding photos done in a short space of time and then it was back into the cars with the air conditioning on and off to the wedding reception in the Mill Park Hotel in Donegal town.

On arrival at the Mill Park there was a great crowd out on the patio area enjoying a drink and the craic. I got some more documentary style photos of the guests before making my way into the lovely ballroom to get the detail and cake shots done before the guests were seated for dinner. Best man Mark made sure there were a few uncomfortable moments for Conor during the speeches and he did a great job keeping everyone laughing along the way. The band for the evening entertainment were The Suite who had a great range of music to cater for everyone and they had the floor filled from the off. As we made our way to the door the party was in full swing and I am pretty sure everyone had a great night in the Mill Park. I would Like to take this opportunity to thank Siobhan and Conor for having myself and Sinead along to document their beautiful wedding and would like to wish them the very best of everything in life for their future. Below are some of the other vendors who helped Siobhan and Conor make their day so special and also a few pics we captured along the way…. enjoy…
