    Ian & Eddie had one of the most epic celebrations of all time.
    Eddie loved the wedding planning and thought of every scenario prior to the big day. Then genuinely let go of the reins on the day and had a ball. Ian not to be out done made the wedding cake.
    The lads give great advice on all parts of weddings, from vibes to budgets, suit secrets to ponchos.
    Eddie & Ian got married in the Great Southern Killarney and could not speak more highly of the team. Shout out to Helen O'Sullivan Celebrant too. Same Sex Aisle walk tip!
    Topics covered are:
    Barber Shop mornings, first touch, first look, pre-ceremony photos, pre-ceremony drinks, long receptions (cut short), receptions speeches by family, banqueting thanks from the couple.
    Suit Shopping, custom neon signs, feathered wall, cocktails, Glow Sticks!
    Eddie & Ian set the bar for table dashes and have inspired many to do similar. Shout out to Brendan Fuller voice over.
    Flog the Dog rocked the trad n more.

    Síona & Sean - Wedding Couple

    Síona & Sean - Wedding Couple

    Síona & Sean on their 1 year wedding anniversary (there or there abouts) call in to talk to Laura and Benny about there family wedding day. 2 kids and a long awaited celebration, Síona & Sean let their personalities and genuine preferences dictate what they did and did not do on their Wedding Day.
    Sean hangs himself before Benny got a chance to, Sean forgot his suit and Síona ONLY FOUND OUT ON THE PODCAST!
    Síona had her own forgetful moments, knickers! The comfort of getting ready at home and even more so when your home is across the road from Mum’s.
    Síona & Sean were adamant on having an outdoor ceremony. Despite potentially ending up inside when it was beautiful outside, they gambled right and dodged the showers.
    Dangers of night before, it is a long day to be suffering on your wedding day, do not it!
    Linda Foley was responsible again for a great ceremony. Mishaps made the moments. Buzz of a receiving line is exclaimed. Long drink reception. Speeches in the garden. Cheese Board Cake.
    Biggest regret? Not getting video! The power of audio and not having a pro record moments, is one small regret that the lads have. They think you should get video.
    360 and me: Síona & Sean bought a video booth for their wedding and it grew into a thriving business.

    Katie & Cormac - Wedding Couple

    Katie & Cormac - Wedding Couple

    We had the best chat with Katie and Cormac, who got married in February 2024. Off Season in Ireland and in their own way. They had 40 or so guests at the Ceremony and Dining, with a more extensive guest list at night for the dancing and late night party. 
    Katie and Cormac tell us all:
    How it was organising a wedding short term.
    Spending time with family and those that travelled.
    How it was taping up…ladies.
    Wedding Dress shopping, Wedding Suit decisions.
    Hair issues and knowing when to settle on a style/finish.
    Openly and genuinely, Katie and Cormac let us in on the feelings they went through on the day. Including writing and saying their own vows.
    Linda Foley preformed a magnificent Wedding Ceremony and all for the collaboration with Katie and Cormac, they give the inside track on the whole experience and brilliance of Linda.
    Speeches were flipped on their head also, with the mothers stepping up. All speeches were great and we get talk back about them.
    BMG Sound provided the tunes and Katie provided the dance moves, and Cormac was the perfect partner teeing her up.
    Wedding Cake was a special one, themed and full a personality.
    Cormac is a smooth operator, engagement story is told.
    We want to thank Katie and Cormac for the great compliments. They appreciated all the random little things that Laura and Benny did. While we help the good times roll, Katie and Cormac let themselves have a great day.
