Rock Star Meets Vintage, Quirky Garden Party Wedding

Good morning, how are you?

I've got the most fabulous, Irish wedding to share with you today ~ a colourful and quirky ‘rockstar meets vintage' garden party with a man of honour, giant toadstools, Pixar table numbers, big white signs of love hanging from the trees, an eclectic music and entertainment selection and the cutest badge favours! All planned in just three months!

Sinead & Joe's unique wedding took place in Ahane, Co Limerick, Ireland and these stunning photos were taken by Sean of Sean Curtin Photography.

Here's Sinead with all the chic and unique details:

The Dress: A Jenny Packham designed dress ~ it fitted perfectly and went with the wonderland garden party theme.

The Shoes & Accessories: Kitten heels for the church and immediately into flats when we arrived in the garden. A simple bespoke head piece to match the appliqué in the dress and a hand carved black Jessica Kagan Cushman “supercalifragilisticexpidolicious” bangle.

Hair & Make Up: Natural make up and up-styled hair.

The Grooms Attire: A black tux

Bridesmaids/Groomsmens Attire: The maid of honour was my best gay friend. He wore a black tux. The bridesmaids wore soft tulle maxi dresses in cappuccino and quirky hand carved
Jessica Kagan Cushaman bangles.

The Flowers: We don’t really like cut flowers, so went for potted daisy’s and lavenders on the tables and around the garden.

The Cake: Cupcakes

The Décor & Details: Toadstools, bunting, vintage crockery and colourful LOVE table runners. Retro button badges for all guests with different slogans including “the bridesmaids rock” “I’m next” “50c per dance” “this wedding rocks” Silver curtains, Bunting, festoon lighting, Mirror Balls hung in trees, Grottos with day beds, Chill Zones.

The Entertainment: Gospel choir in the church, piano man for cocktail and oyster reception,live band after dinner followed by appearances from Bunny a famous Irish drag artist and the rubberbandits (Irish hip hop band) followed by two brilliant disco DJ’s.

The Wedding Music: One day like this by Elbow, sung by the gospel choir.

The Photographer: We chose Sean for his excellent reputation for capturing beautiful memorable shots without having to pose for hours.

Favourite Moment: The journey to the church in a silver rolls Royce with my son, man of honour and my dad and my son running up into Joe’s arms at the church.
