Our Story

Our Story

A few favourite moments and a little of the story behind the day.

We met while both living in Dublin, and somewhere between late dinners, long walks, and busy weeks, the city became ours.

What began as one very good date slowly became a life that feels both grounding and full of possibility.

We wanted the wedding to feel like that too — elegant, warm, and full of the people who matter most.
