Buzz of a receiving line is exclaimed. Long drink reception. Speeches in the garden. Cheese Board Cake. Biggest regret? Not getting video!

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. #wedding #ireland #podcast Wedding Photographers Cork, Laura and Benny Photography cover weddings throughout Munster, Ireland: https://lauraandbennyphotography.com/ Laura and Benny Photography are Irish Wedding Photographers sharing all their knowledge of how weddings actually happen in Ireland.

Blacktye are a true party band… a fun band… a band that gives you permission to let loose! Award winning Blacktye Wedding Band get the recognition they deserve.

Excentric in nature, excentric in clobber, Pacman Polka Dot suits set the tone and it just explodes from there. The diversity of having both female and male vocalists is discussed. Including the diva nature of singers. Full of experience, Darragh gives great advice from technical free jazz to logistics of squeezing the crowd in, rather than spacing out the party.
