Alan’s style is relaxed yet elegant. He will capture your day in a photojournalistic and cinematic way, mostly unposed and definitely no cheese, with lots of candids and special moments you may otherwise have missed.

When you look back on your photographs and films, they will evoke happy memories and take you back to the real feelings of your special day.


Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film is based in Faithlegg, Co. Waterford and is owned and operated by husband and wife team, Alan and Bríd Golden. 


With many years working in close partnership with their wedding couple clients, you can be certain of a professional experience from first contact through to delivery of your wedding. Have a read through the many '5 Star' reviews to get a sense of clients experiences.

Golden Moments offer both Wedding Photography & Wedding Videography, either separately or as a joint package. The joint package will have one photographer (Alan) and one videographer. 

Unlike most full time professionals, they shoot and edit everything 'in-house' so you can be assured of 100% quality and a consistency in-line with your expectations. 

The Golden Moments contact page makes it easy to check availability and if your date is free, you will receive full details with a price tailored to your wedding, including travel costs. There are no hidden extras, such as a 'stay late' fee. You can expect a response to your query within an hour or two. 

To compliment their Wedding Photography packages, on offer is a broad range of wedding albums from both Queensberry and Koy Lab. If you are not sure but think you might like to explore the possibility of having your favourite images in a beautiful wedding album, there is a full range to consider after your wedding. You can see some of these on the albums page www.goldenmomentsphotography.ie/albums

Wedding Film full day packages include drone coverage and Golden Moments are fully insured and licensed with the Irish Aviation Authority. They will contact your venue in advance of your wedding to get flight clearance, one thing less for you to worry about.

Alan has extensive photographic and film making experience built around a City & Guilds Photography degree so you can be assured your once in a lifetime wedding memories are in safe hands.

His style of wedding photography & wedding videography is a blend of photojournalism and contemporary fashion inspired photography. This allows him to be unobtrusive when he needs to be but also will ensure that he can bring that special ‘wow’ factor to your wedding images and movies. There are many examples of his work at www.goldenmomentsphotography.ie

Alan's photography has won many awards and has appeared in local and national press and many online wedding sites.

I can’t recommend Golden Moments Photography highly enough. The level of professionalism was fantastic. They were a dream to work with, both in the lead up and on the day. Alan listened to literally everything I wanted but also offered great advice. I didn’t think of it prior to the wedding but the photographer is the one person you will spend the entire day with (even more than you will with the groom!!) so it’s so important to chose wisely! Alan has such a friendly, calming manner about him. He was also very discreet in his work. Some of my friends said that they didn’t even notice him. This is exactly what I’d hoped for as my husband hates pictures. Also, nobody wants to spend their whole wedding day standing for photos, and he made the whole process of getting family and couple portraits done so quick and easy. He also captured moments of the day that I didn’t even notice were happening. I’ve since got my pictures and I’m absolutely blown away by the end result. They are memories to cherish forever. If you are thinking of booking them do it. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Golden Moments x

We had Golden Moments for our photography and videography for our wedding at Bellingham Castle on 29th December 2019. We cannot speak highly enough of them. From first point of contact they were nothing but professional and helpful. They were so professional on the day and managed and planned the day out so well. They made us feel at ease and relaxed. We are truly blown away with our wedding videos and photographs. You guys are super talented and great at what you do. Thank you so so much for capturing our day in such an incredible way! Julie and Will.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Thank you so much Julie & Will. Your wedding day was amazing...we enjoyed every second of it. It was so fabulous watching you both and your beautiful families and friends enjoy it all so much. It was such a pleasure for us to capture your memories for you. Thanks for choosing us.

21st Dec 2019
Golden Moments did a fantastic job on our wedding video. We did a lot of research into finding a videographer who could capture the day naturally. I really didn't want a video that looked too posed or a videographer that was constantly in our face, Golden Moments ticked both boxes. I loved that we could get the speeches over our highlight video as it made it personal. Job well done.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Lauren & Darragh, Thank you so much for this wonderful review! Your wedding was just epic! What happiness, joy, fun and celebrations! It was such a pleasure to capture it for you both and to create your films afterwards. Best wishes to you both. Thanks again. Alan & Brid

We can't thank Alan enough for capturing the essence of our day and giving us a lovely memory of our nearest and dearest. I was surprised with how much Alan captured as he was so discreet on the day! We are blown away with our wedding videos and would highly recommend Alan for your wedding!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Louise, thank you so much for this very kind review. We were delighted to capture you day for you . Your video will be a treasure to watch for years to come ...we are so glad you love it! Thanks for choosing Golden Moments Photography & Film!

We last minute decided we wanted a videographer 3 weeks before our wedding date. Panicking we posted in the HGIM Facebook group and Golden Moments got back to us with availability. After watching some of their videos I knew they were perfect. Alan was an absolute gent. From the moment he entered the house with a tin of jelly babies he made us feel relaxed and most of the time we didn’t even notice that we were being filmed. He was amazing. We just received our highlight and full video and it everything, and more, than we had hoped it would be. We are thrilled we decided to spend the money on a videographer and I would advise all future brides to get one. Pictures are great but to have a video is something special. I would recommend Alan and Golden moments over and over again.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Amy, thank you so much. It was pleasure for us to capture your day for you. You are so right ....photographs capture your day beautifully but a video captures it differently. Your film will be a family treasure . Thanks for choosing us.

While researching photographers and videographers back when I was starting to plan my wedding I came across golden moments, Bríd and Alan were a dream to deal with, especially seen as a lot of our dealings were by email the booking process was so easy, they sent me on sample videos and I fell in love with their style it's almost like watching a movie!!I knew I had to have Alan at my wedding!! Fast forward to our wedding day and they did not disappoint, so friendly, professional and put everybody at ease from the minute he walked in!! Nothing was a hassle and they go above and beyond to help (I think Alan was trying to fix a hand steamer for the bridesmaid dresses at one point!!!) We have received a couple of shots and we are so excited to see the rest and video!!! I cannot recommend Golden Moments highly enough, amazing at what they do and genuinely nice people!!!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Liz, Thanks so much for this wonderful review. It's always handy to have a photographer who can double up as a handy man and fix a few things ...LOL ! It was a pleasure ! We were delighted to capture your day for you both and loved every second of it ! Thanks again.

Alan and his team were very professional on the day. I felt they stayed in the background for most of the day and just let it happen naturally I loved that they were organised they sent me on a list before the wedding of what photos I wanted to get. This meant I got photos with everyone we wanted to. The photos are gorgeous.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Thanks so much Laura and Paul. We loved capturing your day for you both. It was so special. We are delighted that you love the photographs.
Review by Aoife and Alan
5th Aug 2019
We booked Alan for our wedding videography because of his exceptional reviews and having viewed some videos they were the style we wanted. Alan touched base with us a number of times before the big day and made sure he knew all the details and any personal touches we wanted captured. He was a very relaxed and calm presence on the day and got on so well with everyone. The final video is something we will always have to treasure. It captured the excitement and intimacy we both felt on the day yet Alan was never intrusive. He has a fantastic talent and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for wedding videography. Money extremely well spent!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Hi Aoife & Alan, Thanks so much for taking the time to write this review. We very much appreciate it. We just loved working with you both and your families on what was such a magical day. Your videos will ensure that your wedding day and all the love, joy and emotion that was shared will be remembered forever. Thanks for choosing Golden Moments.

Absolutely fantastic. Can't speak highly enough of Alan & Bríd. They went above & beyond. Delighted we chose to work with them. Lovely, down to Earth people, very easy to get on with, super professional. They took all our ideas on board, and added a few brilliant suprises to our big day. Thank you so much for capturing everything so well. Exceeded our expectations. Couldn’t have asked for better!

Alan was amazing and made us all feel so relaxed. He created a lovely friendly atmosphere and went out of his way to say goodbye to us and family members on the night which was very thoughtful. We are so happy with the preview of our photos and cannot wait until we get the rest through. They look fantastic and so natural which we love! Thank you so much Alan.

Alan and the videographer did an absolutely stellar job with our wedding photos and video. They’re both absolutely beautiful and we’re so glad to have found them. Alan was lovely to deal with in the lead up to the wedding and on the day of they were lovely to deal with. Guests kept commenting on what a funny, charming man Alan was. Would recommend them to anyone.

Rachel, Thank you so much for your lovely comments. We loved capturing your day...it was magical ! We are so thrilled you love your photographs and film. Alan
Review by Brian Cassidy
5th Jul 2019
I'm NOT a fan of having my picture taken at all - so agreeing to a wedding photographer AND videographer was a big step for me. But - Alan and Co were AMAZING. They were absolutely super. They never made it feel like we were being dragged away from things, instead they made sure we were still part of everything. There were amazing and had us each place bang on time. After we even commented how we never even noticed them in the church, they were that discreet, and people asked me afterwards how did we find someone so good. Our families and even the venue commented on how amazing they were. I would 110% recommend them and cannot say enough amazing things about the 3 of them - and to be honest if you don't go with them, you will regret it. So good were they that the day after the wedding my (now) wife woke up and panicked about getting ready to go for breakfast as Alan wasn't there to guide her! FYI - getting the videograper as well is worth it. You will not regret it! 5 stars is not enough to give these guys! Cannot recommend them enough - brilliant to deal with and highly recommend to help your day go smoothly. Such nice people and made us feel SO relaxed
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Ah thanks so much Brian. Yourself and Aoife had an amazing day and we were so delighted to be a part of it. All the best. Alan.

We cannot praise Alan's work enough! So pleasant and helpful from the first time we contacted him, we would not hesitate to recommend him! Our only regret is not having him as our photographer as well as videographer as throughout the day he was so helpful and made everyone feel relaxed! Thanks again!!

David and Aisling thank you both so much. I had an amazing day filming your wedding and I am so delighted that you chose Golden Moments. All the best, Alan.

We both feel very blessed that we found this incrediblely gifted man. thank you again Alan

Working with Alan & Brid was great- They are super professional and work incredibly hard to capture the special moments of your wedding. We chose Golden Moments as our Videographer and they were really helpful in tailoring a package suitable for our needs. Our wedding was at Faithlegg so we were able to meet with Alan to discuss the day beforehand and he shared his tips to help us get the best moments and understand how he would be working away in the background. Communication was excellent! We are so pleased with our wedding film! It was emotional to watch back but the footage has been edited with skill, care and attention to make it super personal. Alan is highly skilled and our relative working in the film industry commented that all the recording equipment was some of the best kit out there, and the film reflects this. Thank you again and we definitely recommend Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film to other couples out there!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Thanks so much Nicola and Paul. It was such a real pleasure working with you both. We knew from the moment we first spoke on the telephone that we could do a super film of your day. We are so thrilled you love it....it captures your day as it was.....full of happiness, love, beauty , emotion and fun! Thanks for choosing us.
Review by Elisha McDermott
15th Mar 2019
To start this off I want to say a big thank you to Alan, Brid and their team for such an amazing day on June 15th 2019. Picking the right Photographer & Videographer for our wedding was really important to us so we did a lot of research into this. after finding Golden Moments and a deep dive into their photo & Video portfolio online, we decided they were the one and we are so glad we did. My husband would not be fond of being in front of a camera so this is something he was very nervous about. Of course on the day we barely noticed them around us apart from the odd time when they wanted us to do a special shot which all came out amazing. From the start of the day right through to the end, they were excellent and we couldn't be happier with how our photos and videos came out. (Make sure to get the photos with the sparklers as these are some of our favorites.) Will definitely be recommending them to anyone we know getting married in the future. Best Wishes, Mr & Mrs McDermott

Hi Elisha, Thanks so much for this review. We really appreciate it. Your day was just magical. You were all so relaxed and enjoying the occasion so much that it made our job very easy.

I cannot thank Golden Moments enough. From start to finish, their professionalism was second to none. Alan captured such beautiful moments on the day that we will cherish and look back on forever more. Alan was so discreet that I honestly forgot that he was even there! The best decision we made with regards to our Wedding day was to have a Videographer. Even if it means stretching your wedding budget just do it and choose Golden Moments- you will not be disappointed.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Mairead thank you so much for your kind words. I was absolutely delighted to capture your wedding day and we even managed through the floods. All the best, Alan.

Brid and Alan of golden moments were our wedding photographers and we received our photos a few days ago. We couldn't be happier with them. I was anxious about the photography because neither me or my husband are comfortable getting our photo taken. We tend to avoid it at all costs. From the moment we met brid and Alan they made us feel comfortable and gave us both the direction we needed the get the amazing shots we ended up with. We really had no idea what we were doing and brid and Alan were so patient with us. I have no hesitation in recommending golden moments to anyone looking for a photographer that will make you feel relaxed and comfortable and give you amazing photos that you will cherish forever.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Hi Jenny, Thank you so much for your really kind words. Your wedding was such a wonderful day in such a beautiful venue. It was our first time working in Beleek Castle and from the moment we arrived for our preliminary visit we knew it was going to be really special. Yourself and Leigh were a pleasure to work with. Thanks for choosing us to capture your day.

Myself and my now husband got married in September and we picked golden moments for photography and videoagraphy. From the minute they arrived they made us feel so comfortable, I can honest say the day would not have been the same without them.. They caught all our funny silly moments in our video and captured the love we have for each other in the photos. I would recommend them to anyone. They helped make our day what it was. Thank you guys so much again ?

Review by Emma Roe
24th Aug 2018
Alan and Bríd were phenomenal to work with on our wedding day, having just received our photos we are blown away with both the quality and the precious moments that they managed to capture on the most special day of our lives. On what started a very rainy morning, Alan & Bríd arrived with cheery smiles and proceeded to calm and reassure a slightly stressed bride and they even brought the sunshine with them! All day they quietly captured shots that quite literally take my breath away when I look at them, the behind the scenes photos tell the story of the whole day and we’ll treasure the memories forever, thank you Alan & Bríd - you were brilliant.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Hi Emma, thank you so much for your kind words. We are absolutely delighted your day went to plan, a plan that was very ambitious as you were taking on everything yourself and having your wedding at home. And you did it in style. Congratulations to yourself and Johnny. All the best. Alan & Bríd.

Alan and Brìd made our day completely unforgettable!! They are such beautiful people who put so much time and effort into making sure your day is absolutely perfect! Initially I wasn't going to use a videographer and we only decided a few months before the Wedding to look for one-how they were available I really don't know!! Bríd is just so amazing to deal with and Alan is so incredibly talented!! The only regret I have is that I didn't use golden moments for photography aswell! Highly highly recommend!! Was honestly blown away by their work!

From the moment Alan and Richard arrived, they fitted into our wedding as though they were guests. Alan’s gentle tone and kind nature put everyone at ease, even those who were not keen on having their photos taken. We received our photos and are still looking through, noticing something new each time. We could not be happier and cannot thank you enough for capturing those special moments of our day which we will cherish for years to come. On a personal note, I would like to thank you both for creating a very special and poignant moment for us both; I will never look at a setting sun in quite the same way. I had spent months searching through lists of photographers and videographers and I wish I had read a review early on, which told me not to look past Golden Moments. A thousand thank you’s from Siobhan & Daniel x
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Hi Siobhan, Daniel and boys, From all at Golden Moments , thank you so much for this review. The laughter and joy of your wedding day, throughout the all the generations on both sides of your families is one of our best memories of 2018!
Review by Deborah & Francesco
22nd Jul 2018
We took very seriously the choice of a photographer and for me it was even more important than my wedding dress. Choosing Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film was one of the best choice we made. Brid was absolutely lovely to deal with, she carefully listened to what we wanted for our day. The professionalism we saw was above any expectations, even before the wedding when Alan contacted us to organize that day and to be sure we got what we wanted. His attention to details and organization even before the wedding made me feel so relieved because we knew already that we were in good hands. Alan was so friendly and professional that he made us feel so at ease and relaxed that we actually enjoyed every single moment. Once having seen the pictures, we realized even more that his attention to details and skills were really outstanding. We barely realized they were there and we have received such amazing natural candid pictures, exactly what we wanted. All pictures really communicate sth of that day, reason why it is very difficult to choose the best ones. And the video, omg it really seems we are watching a movie, we can relive all the emotions of that day. It is priceless! One year of planning a single day…and receiving such wonderful memories which will last forever. We are extremely satisfied!!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Deborah and Francesco we absolutely loved capturing your wedding in Kilkea Castle. It really was the dream wedding. And to have two beautiful Italian families coming together at an Irish Castle wedding in glorious sunshine for an outdoor ceremony was an honour for us to be a small part of.

How Alan captured the day is just amazing and we will treasure these videos. We were particularly delighted with the 5 minute highlights video showing the best of what was such a special day for us. Alan put us at ease straightaway and his eye for detail and capturing the different small but special moments is top class. Along with that it was great fun throughout the day too! Thanks again for everything!

Thanks so much for your lovely review Alison and David. I absolutely loved capturing your day. Thanks for making me so welcome. I'm delighted you love your films.
Review by Dee & Eoin
7th Apr 2018
I would 100% recommend Alan. He was brilliant and I couldn't say enough good things about him. He did the videography at our wedding. Like a lot of couples we didn't think our budget would stretch to getting a videographer, we had decided not to get one but then after seeing a friends one we knew we would regret it if we didn't. I did a lot of research in relation to price and previous videos. I really liked Alan's style and then I saw examples which had a drone. He was the cheapest videographer that I could find that included a drone. Well to say we weren't disappointed would be an understatement!! Alan rang us about 2 weeks before the wedding to go through everything and check we were happy. From the minute we met him he was great, we barely noticed he was there on the day which is exactly what we wanted. Lots of our guests even commented that they barely noticed him. Even after watching the video back I had never realised that a camera was even present in certain places. Not only that but he is a very nice person and I hadn't realised how important that actually was until the morning as he was in reality a stranger that was part of our special day. He was such a gent from beginning to end. Then we got the finished product and we were delighted with it. We got a highlighted version of around 5 mins to share with our friends and then a longer version too to relive the whole day. The views he managed to get with his drone were something else! If your undecided about getting a videographer I would highly recommend it. While we love it now we know it will be even more important in years to come. With that in mind we would highly recommend choosing Alan in Golden Moments to capture your day! We can't thank him enough for our priceless moments that he captured!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Deirdre thank you so much for your 5 star review. I had such a great time in Castletroy filming your and Eoin's wedding. To see you laughing and chatting as you walked up the aisle with your dad was a fantastic experience for not only me but for everyone there. How Eoin managed to keep looking straight ahead until you arrived must be a superhuman feat in itself :) Long life and happiness to you both. Alan & Bríd.

It can be a very daunting experience trying to find good photographers on the lead up to your wedding. I had e-mailed a few that had been suggested to me but found them way too expensive and I had also contacted some I had researched myself but their response was very slow. As soon as I sent out a request to Golden Moments, Brid responded to me immediately and promptly replied to any queries I had. She met my fiancé and myself and went through all the choices we had to choose from and brought along wedding albums of different sizes and prices to show samples of their work. We found the price of our chosen package very reasonable and the option to pay in instalments up to the wedding date was a great help. Brid and Alan were very professional on the day and our guests commented countless times on how good they were. They were also very efficient in getting our photos edited and e-mailed to us, all within 72 hours. We would recommend Golden Moments to anyone looking for a professional photographer for any occasion.

Ah thank you Ann and Chris. What a wonderful family occasion your wedding was in Mullingar. Smiles all the way from all the guests and family, so lovely to see. All the best to you both. Alan and Brid.

Alan and brid are lovely to deal with very friendly and professional. Alan is amazing at his job gets great photos without being in your face. For someone who doesn't like getting their photograph taken I was quite nervous to see what photos would look like and was very nervous coming up to the wedding about the thoughts of posing for photos. I was delighted to see how natural the photos were and they have exceeded my expectations. I would 1000% recommend Alan to any future couples. And I am so happy that we chose golden moments for our wedding.

Karen, Thank you so much. You looked amazing in your photographs ...we can't understand why you don't like being photographed! Your day was just wonderful and Alan enjoyed every moment of capturing it for you. We are thrilled you like your gallery and printed photographs. Thanks for the messages afterwards...it's so nice to get such positive feedback. It makes our job so satisfying. Brid

Really relaxed and non intrusive, Alan did an amazing job. If your thinking about a video get Golden Moments and if your not I would definitely say to you think again they are great for memories.

Absolutely delighted with our wedding video from Alan in Golden Moments. Right from the first dealings with Brid to saying goodbye to Alan on the night nothing was ever an issue and everything just went so smoothly. We really wanted someone who wasn’t too intrusive but got the little moments that we can look back on forever. So happy we decided to go with a videographer in the end. Something we will have forever.Alan is just a pleasure to deal with and we can 100% recommend to any couple thinking of booking.

Alan was an absolute dream to work with!!! He is so encouraging and really makes the whole day so easy for the couple! We absolutely love our video and all of our friends and family are blown away by our sneak peek video too! He really captured all of the emotions and feelings of our big day. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to future brides and grooms!

We booked Alan & Brid two weeks before our wedding after being let down by another photographer we had booked, this turned out to be a blessing in disguise. From day one after a day of upset and tears both Brid and Alan were unbelievably friendly, professional and committed! Alan made us feel comfortable throughout and you could really see he takes great pride in his work. Today we received our sneak peak and wow they are amazing, so in love with our photos and cannot wait to see the rest, will definitely be worth the wait. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend golden moments to anyone for any occasion! Above and beyond what we expected and we will be forever grateful to both Brid and Alan for saving our day
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Ah Rachel & Ian we were delighted to be able to offer our services. I really enjoyed the day and both you families made me feel so welcome, it was a pleasure to capture your day. Chat soon. Alan.

My wife and I couldn’t be more pleased with the shots that Alan from Golden Moments Photography took on our wedding day. Throughout the occasion, he was kind, patient, flexible and professional. He listened carefully to what we wanted, was well-prepared and produced some very special photographs. I would give him my highest possible recommendation.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Hi Ciaran, thank you so much for booking me to photograph your wedding. I was really made to feel welcome by everyone and it was such a great occasion here in Faithlegg for you both. All the best. Alan

We had the pleasure of dealing with Alan Golden Photography and his Videograpger Paul. What a wonderful service,from the minute Alan we knew that this was going to be magical,his fine art to detail,the samples he provided and his easy going manner,but yet so professional. On our wedding day we didn't even know himself or Paul were going about there business, made us feel so relaxed and low and behold the pictures and the video are flawless. Excellent work. Great offers on his packages,we went with the photos and video,memories for a life time. Thank you Alan, Bríd and Paul.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Thanks Ann Marie for the wonderful review. We loved capturing both photo and video at your wedding. What a great day it was, a brilliant family occasion for you both and also for the kids of course. All the best. Alan.

Alan made the most beautiful and sentimental wedding video we could wish for. From the overhead video footage to how amazing our video was put together it was such a perfect live story book of our most amazing day. Couldn't recommend Alan highly enough and he's an absolute gent!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Danielle & Fergus thank you so much for choosing Golden Moments for your wedding videography. What a day it was! Thank you for your kind words and best wishes to both of you. Alan.

Married 1 month to the date and we got our fab photographs .. honestly could not recommend Golden Moments photography enough. From day 1 we were left at ease with such professionalism and expertise! They went above and beyond for us and honestly we could not have asked for better! Living abroad meant picking the right vendors was going to be crucial in ensuring a smooth transition throughout the day! They even kindly brought their camera out to the hospital where we were visiting my partners nan who is very dear to us all! That incredible gesture to videotape that moment really made our day as she is very special to us and to have that moment forever more you just cannot put a price tag on that!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Karen & Ian thank you both so much for your kind words. To organise such a large wedding from abroad and to have it work so well is a testament to your hard work and family support. Well done all! We were honoured to play a small part. To see a couple smiling from early morning to late at night on their wedding day is a wonderful experience for any photographer / videographer and we are so happy that was us on August 26th. Alan & Brid. x

For our very DIY wedding, our photographer was the one aspect we took very seriously, and we considered our choices very carefully. What we saw on the website and in the brochure was exactly the standard of excellence we got - we could not have asked for anyone better! Alan was professional, obliging, helpful and friendly from the first phone call, through our practice photoshoot (which he travelled for, without complaint), through the entire wedding day, and throughout all our interactions with him. Alan, unasked, went above and beyond taking on the role of our unofficial timekeeper on the day, keeping things moving along and keeping an eye on the weather so that we got all the photos we wanted, and so much more. As promised, he completely blended into the background so that we mostly forgot he was there, making it truly amazing when we saw the photos of how many special moments he captured. Alan didn’t miss a thing, and we are so grateful that he managed to think of everything - from taking it upon himself to seek out the wedding dress, suit and rings to get some fantastic pictures while all the madness went on with preparations, to documenting the beautiful grounds and all the homemade decorations, to chatting with guests and capturing even the most camera-shy in his natural, documentary-style that we love. We particularly loved the action shots of the first dance. The digital photos were ready for us within days, meaning we could share them with our families before we flew back to London. We have absolutely nothing but praise for Alan and would recommend him to anyone and everyone, for any occasion. Incidentally, he also pretty much saved the day by figuring out our sound problem - what a hero!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Claire & Eric...wow! Thank you for the very kind words. We had a great day and I was so happy for you both. It's not easy organising a DIY wedding from London but if you write a book on how you did it, it will be a best-seller! I'm certainly looking forward to creating your wedding album over the next couple of months. All the best. Alan. x

We would highly recommend Golden moments. We booked Alan last minute to do our wedding videography and we are so glad now that we did. Alan was so brilliant from start to finish, he was so professional and did a better video than we could have ever imagined. His wife Brid was really kind and helpful also, their attention to detail was superb. We really couldnt fault them.. Our families and friends are still talking about how relaxed and easy going they were when providing the service. Alan made us feel so comfortable throughout the day, his years of wedding photography experience shines through on the day. Do not hesitate to book golden moments they are excellent.

I can't recommend Alan & Brid highly enough! We were all made to feel so comfortable throughout our day & often didn't even know Alan was taking shots! Alan & Brid have the perfect mix of professionalism & sincere warmth. We have already received a sneak peak of some of our shots and they are magical! Alan has an amazing eye for detail & sensing the perfect shot - together with Brid they make an amazing team, bringing laughter, a relaxed atmosphere and a lovely sense of warmth & sincerity to our day! Highly highly recommended!
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Sinead thank you so much for this review. You and Justin make an amazing couple, so full of love, warmth and energy! Bríd & I wish you both long life and happiness. UP THE DEISE! Alan. x

Throughout the process from "showcasing" his work, and getting a feel for us and the day we were planning, to presenting us with a beautiful album, Alan and Brid were calmly and efficiently working away to create an everlasting record of the day. Many excellent images were captured, but their contribution felt like more than just stunning photographs. We would have no hesitation recommending Golden Moments Photography.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Thanks Maggie & Jon, we absolutely loved photographing your wedding at Langtons in Kilkenny. So delighted for you both. Maggie you looked stunning and the occasion really did match our expectations of such a classy couple. All the best, Alan & Bríd.

I cannot say enough good things about Alan Golden. He was absolutely fantastic. Didn't stress me out one bit on the day. Himself and his co worker Peter were so brilliant. I forgot they were even there and yet when the final product arrived they had managed to capture so many beautiful and candid moments. I would 100% recommend these guys
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Niamh what an amazing couple you and Troy make. We had a wonderful day with you both and just knew during filming that the love and joy of the day would shine through. Congratulations to you both and thank you for your kind words. Alan. x

From my heart, I can give nothing less than 5 stars across the board to Golden Moments. I only decided to get a video less than two weeks before our wedding, and we were so lucky to have gotten in contact with Brid and Alan. We had the most prompt and friendly communication with Brid throughout the process, and on the day Alan and Peter were lovely to work with, and to be honest we didn't even realise they were there for most of the day! We also received a very very reasonable and competitive price, especially when you consider the very high quality of video and service we received. The drone footage we saw was breathtaking, and considering how little we noticed the videographers on the day, the amount of really special moments they captured was amazing, and our highlights video brought me (and many of our family and friends) to tears of happiness. I would advise anyone who is unsure about a video to get one if you can fit it into your budget, looking back now I am so so so glad to have our memories on video- and I would recommend Golden Moments 100%, the whole experience we had with them was just fantastic!

Hi Triona, we are absolutely delighted to have been able to play a part in capturing your wedding day. Yourself and Sean are such a gorgeous couple, it was our privilege to be a part of it. Alan & Bríd.

Alan was amazing as our photographer. I love my photos and there was such a selection to choose from. He's professional, fun, has great ideas for pictures that will stand out and very talented at what he does. I have recommended him to any person I know that's getting married :)

Ah Rebecca, what a joy it was to capture you and Chris on your wedding day. Such deep happiness and joy radiating from both of you, it was our absolute pleasure and honour to be part of your day. All the best. Alan & Bríd.

Alan was an absolute pleasure to deal with from start to finish, a complete professional and equally as friendly and approachable. The photos and video captured the atmosphere of the entire day from start to finish and we couldn't have been happier with the end product. I have sang Alan's praises to everyone who enquired about our photos and video and couldn't recommend him and Golden Moments Photography highly enough. Thank you so much Alan.
Response from Golden Moments Wedding Photography & Film
Elaine what a fabulous day yourself and Colin had. The walk around Kilkenny Castle was very special and you rocked Hotel Kilkenny with your entrance. Thank you sincerely for your kind words. Alan & Bríd.
