Pink Kildare Wedding | Niamh & Gordon’s fairytale summer wedding
Gorgeous pink wedding in Kildare and Woodford Dolmen Hotel in Carlow
When Niamh got in touch and told us she was getting married and wanted us to capture it, we knew we were in for a good time! We’ve known Niamh and her family for a few years now and have had the honour of photographing them many times: first for her sister Louise’s engagement portraits (with dog Scruffy!), then her wedding, followed by family portraits and newborn pictures for both of Louise’s gorgeous boys. Needless to say, the Kelly’s are part of the DesignWorks family at this stage! (even Niamh’s dad told us that they’ve decided it’s not a family event unless we’re at it! Aww, thanks Con!) So we were thrilled at the idea of spending another fun filled day with them! We knew the wedding would be stunning, Niamh loves her glamour and has amazing attention to detail and she did not disappoint! The perfect blend of pink-loving Disney princess glam (look at the cake!) with nods to groom Gordon’s love of Back to the Future, this wedding was truly and utterly THEM! From DeLorean cars to pink Jimmy Choos this gorgeous wedding was filled with personal touches and glam surprises.
It was a gloriously sunny day in Kildare for Niamh and Gordon’s special day. The hot pink bridesmaids’ dresses looked amazing alongside the dashing green uniforms of Gordon’s fellow soldiers who provided a guard of honour, and were great fun on the day! Annie Powderly provided the stunning soundtrack to a moving ceremony, followed by much welcomed 99’s from an ice-cream truck! Then it was on to The Woodford Dolmen Hotel where guests were greated with pink cocktails and delicious tiny scones while enjoying the beautiful gardens and riverbank that was just ideal for portraits! There wasn’t a dry eye in the house during the particularly moving speeches, and once the party started, it was sadly time for us to say goodbye. Until the next Kelly event of course!
