Stunning vintage wedding at Moyvalley Hotel & Golf Resort

Both bride and groom were quiet and nervous all morning; smiling, co-operative and kind as always but clearly couldn’t wait to get the show on the road. As Siobhan’s mum walked her up the aisle and placed her hand in Ronan’s, the relief on their two faces was visible. The morning’s stress melted away and both could breathe easy. In that moment they both glowed with joy, love and the knowledge that all was right in the world. They were together again.

We first met Siobhan many years ago when she came to our studio for family portraits with her lovely mum and sisters, and they’ve remained among our most loyal clients ever since (Siobhan looks so young in those images now!) When she became engaged, mum Deirdre arrived at our door to check if we were available to photograph the wedding as she ‘simply wouldn’t trust anyone else!’  Thanks Deirdre! And so began the task of planning the wedding while living in the UK, relying on family, friends and the internet to do most of their research for them and packing many meetings into their trips home!

The results were well worth the effort and organisation though, as their wedding was elegant and stylish, set in the spectacular Balyna House, an 19th century Italianate mansion on the grounds of the modern Moyvalley Hotel in Co. Kildare. Filled with gorgeous vintage details, this wedding was an understated nod to the season with Spring touches including adorable bunny cake toppers made by the bride herself! Siobhan looked stunning in a gown that perfectly combined retro and contemporary style with gorgeous lace detailing on the bodice and a modern bateau neckline. A fabulous green VW camper van continues the stylishly vintage trend, in which the happy couple then drove off into the sunset on their honeymoon! With such a beautiful setting, any Moyvalley wedding is a pleasure but Siobhan and Ronan’s remains very close to our hearts.
