Wedding Clonbur Co Galway


Wedding Clonbur Co Galway

01st October 2012
Siobhán and Jamie were recently married in the beautiful Joyce Country of Clonbur Co Galway followed by a unique custom made reception at Campbells Tavern Cloughanover in Headford.
"Unique" with a lot of "cool" things that you don't see at traditional weddings is how I'd describe Siobhán and Jamie's special day. I hadn't met Jamie before.....but as he's a drummer (...something that I do on occasion), we had plenty to chat about while taking photos!

Siobhán's home in Clonbur has the most wonderful views....(fantastic landscape at the back of the home) and it was a treat in her home the morning of the wedding.

I've done a lot of weddings but this was pretty cool in my book.....Siobhán and her dad Seán taking the short walk to the church for the ceremony.

Totally relaxed, Siobhán and Seán catch their first glimpse of Jamie.

I'm very lucky with the job that I have......especially when working at weddings where you can almost touch the affection that the Bride and Groom show each other when the wedding vows are taking place. Eye contact all the time and fantastic awareness about what they're doing....and I have a front row seat for all of it! Well done Siobhán and Jamie, fair play to the both of you!

Love the countryside that Clonbur has. I must admit to needing the stepladder for this shot though....I'm afraid my legs aren't long enough to give me a better view over the hedges!

Pater Fahy from Cong supplied the vintage Ford Cortina and I though it was so appropriate for Siobhán and Jamie's style of wedding.

After spending a short while taking some images down by the lake, we headed back to the Marquee which was specially erected on the grounds of Campbells tavern in Cloughanover for Siobhán and Jamie's wedding. I though it looked fantastic and I commend all who were involved with the idea....it looked awesome!

Bonfires and a large crowd were on hand to welcome the happy couple to Cloughanover.




Jamie may have been familiar with microphones through his music, but Siobhan was pretty handy at using it also!

The music was always going to be pretty special at this wedding as a result of Jamie's profession. Well done to all who played....it sounded awesome! In particular, I commend those who looked after the "sound" on the night....great full sound that wasn't too loud, well done!

A very happy looking pair of newlyweds!




Thanks so much for letting me be part of your special day....I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Jamie....the very best of luck with your new business "Galway Rehearsal Studios"....from the photos that I've seen on Facebook, it looks awesome!
