Leah and Kevin whispering vows and sweet nothings to each other – Muckross Abbey, Killarney, Ireland

 

Ah, such a romantic story, we met in a bar drunk off our asses.

(We were both 20- it’s expected) I was being the wing woman to my friend who thought his friend was cute. I started to chat with him, and through the night we…um… danced and talked more. I gave him my real phone number at the end of the night. And he called (this was before cell phones). After that – we have been inseparable for the past 20 years.

 

What was the highlight of your day?

Kevin: seeing Leah in wedded bliss
Leah: when kevin saw photos that Olga took and admitted that everything was perfect. So really when my new husband admitted I was right that this place would make beautiful pictures. Oh…. uuhhh… seeing Kevin in wedded bliss.

Both of us knew we are not ones to have a big celebration.

Being the centre of attention would give me hives. So we knew it had to be small. We knew it wouldn’t be in Canada. And we knew we would elope. But he surprised me to have it in Ireland as I wasn’t planning it at all. He went off a suggestion I had that Muckross Abbey would be a beautiful spot for a wedding

The thought of having a wedding in a church but not a church felt like we were covering our family but still staying true to us.

And that tree, straight from a fantasy movie. Clearly Legolas sat around that tree. And those windows…Were….Sublime. The backdrop of the forest surrounding the Abbey, even better.
