Heather & Michael's Ireland Wedding on the 16th September

Heather contacted me 2 years ago about the possibility of photographing her wedding in Waterford, Ireland. Heather & Michael live in New Jersey, USA, which meant the first time we met was at the wedding.

Heather & Michael spend a lot of time in Ireland and it was the obvious place to hold their wedding. Although finding a venue was a little more tricky as the churches in Ireland are not keen on people travelling from abroad to get married. After much searching they found Parkswood Country House at Passage East who could hold an outdoor ceremony. The couple flew their own minister in from America to conduct the ceremony.

This was the first time I had seen an outdoor ceremony which is very popular in America but not legal in the UK at present. This was also my first visit to Ireland and my first taste of Irish hospitality.
