I look forward to working with you to claim the ceremony that most deeply reflects you and your values- it being Non-Religious, Semi-Religious, Mixed Faith or Spiritual. Each ceremony is personalized to reflect your unique love story. I take great pride in ensuring your wedding day is unforgettable.

💕 Kind words from such a genuine, lovely couple 💕

"Having Áine as our celebrant was such a wonderful experience and she was part of what made our wedding day so special. Our ceremony was more emotional than we ever expected, and her kind guidance throughout, made all the difference in keeping us present in the moment. She made us feel so at ease and created a ceremony that felt so personal, meaningful, and full of love. Our ceremony was everything we had hoped for and more and we feel so lucky to have had Áine there with us."

Wishing these legends a lifetime of happiness. Grá agus sonas Katie & Adam 🫶

💕 KIND WORDS 💕

When Siobhán & Seán told me their plan for an intimate ceremony with the theme of Carl Sagan's 'Pale blue dot' running throughout, I knew I was in for treat 🫶

There were tears, laughter, and massive swigs of Mead to seal the deal! 😉

Wishing this beautiful pair a lifetime of shared adventures and endless headbutts from Roni the cat 😻 💕

Thank you for the kind words 🙏

💕 H & M had a beautiful day at yesterday, with a full house in the Granary (thanks to Mary and the team for their help).

They chose a very special handfasting with a chord crafted by the grooms auntie. They also chose a hymn to be sung during the ceremony by the brilliant - a lovely nod to their religious beliefs.

Wishing this wonderful couple a lifetime of happiness... and maybe even a flock of their own sheep some day 😉💕

💕 I am just catching up on some of my recent weddings, and one of my faves was C & L's fabulous celebration in @virginia_park_lodge the weekend before last.

Not least C's lovely Grandad having pride of place in the front row. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 #FamilyLove #WeddingVibes Wishing this brilliant pair a lifetime of joy and love 💕 It was amazing to work with such a talented team: 💐 Brigid from @fernwood.flowers 📸 @artweddingphotography 📹 @pilgrimfilms.ie 🎶 @thecanapecruisers 💒 Thanks to Ciarán and the team 🙏 @virginia_park_lodge #justmarried #husbandandwife #weddingcelebrant #solemniser #mrandmrs #cavanwedding #celebrant #celebratelife #celebratelove #ainemckenna
