Some venues are pretty, Adare Manor is a masterpiece. Gothic arches reaching for the sky, endless green stretching out like a royal invitation, candlelit rooms that could make anyone believe in magic. Caroline and Patrick knew that from the second they arrived and Adare Manor delivered on every impossible expectation.

There were grand entrances that felt straight out of cinema. Champagne flowing under ceilings that have seen centuries of celebration. Gardens that looked like they were painted just for them. Every corner said: this love is big.

Ireland brought the mist and the music, the kind of atmosphere that turns vows into legends.
