Something Blue – A Sweet Castle Leslie Wedding by Quinn Video

Real Weddings

“We fell in love with Castle Leslie from the moment we saw it, my Grandpa was from Monaghan so there may also be a little tie there.”

The couple: Nicole Cunningham & Shane Connolly
Length of engagement: 19 months | Wedding date: 15th July 2017
Wedding venue: Castle Leslie Estate, Monaghan
Videographer: Quinn Video

We met… When we were in our teens, in… surprise, surprise… our local pub! We grew up down the road from each and even went to the same primary school! It was only a matter of time!!!

Our proposal… was very low-key, Christmas Eve morning at home.

My dress… was by Daarlarna Couture, I bought it in the The White Rooms in Mullingar.

My hair and make-up… My hair was done by my friend Janet Weldon (I wouldn’t trust anyone else). Make-up was by Mrs Make-up herself, Michelle Regazzoli-Stone.

His suit… was from Louis Copeland.

What our bridal party wore… Dessy dresses from Wedding World in Marino.

Our ceremony… was at St. Macartan’s Cathedral, Monaghan.

Our wedding theme/colours… Carolina Blue on the bridesmaids and Navy on the groomsmen.

We chose our venue because… We fell in love with Castle Leslie from the moment we saw it, my Grandpa was from Monaghan so there may also be a little tie there.

We chose our videographer because… My best friend Erica had Quinn Video for her wedding and Ronan was brilliant on the day!

My favourite part of the wedding day… Getting ready that morning with my mam and the girls. The dinner, speeches and dancing were also a highlight!

My piece of advice for other couples… ENJOY YOURSELVES!!!!
