The Dog, the Knight and the Castle

As is fitting of Irish weddings we all stayed the night at the castle (ie NO DRIVING) and got up to a great Irish breakfast and a lovely luncheon. I tell you I have never had a better time laughing and telling stories than around the luncheon table.  Brilliant.  Gas!

Cabra Castle is and old estate and befitting it has an Irish wolfhound and a Knight.  My newly married cousin Corinne posed with him like he was her knight, Denis. 

Wedding Day

T-shirt weather in Ireland is a rarity and to have it on your wedding day is a miracle.  Corinne and Denis were definitely shined upon today.  We had lovely weather at the church in Kilbride, Co Meath.  So lovely in fact, my cousin Justin, Corinne's da had a ice cream van serving vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries to all the guests upon exiting the church.  (I think a Mr. Softee van could increase church attendance!)

Corinne was lovely and the wedding a wonderful.

I took off in the limo with the bridesmaids (planned, I was the piper!) and we crossed counties to Cavan and arrived at the reception at Cabra Castle.

I got see loads of rels and had a great time at such a wonderful feast and celebration.

My wee cousin Justin had the time of his life getting drenched in the chocolate fountain.  He was quite proud of his messy self!  What a lad.
