Good evening lovely brides-to-be! We’re being very generous today and giving you a sneak peek of one of our lovely real life couples from our Spring Summer 2015 issue, which… wait for it… will be on the shelves this weekend! Yes, the wait is almost over, so get ready to pick up this issue because we assure you, it’s bursting at the seams with local bridal inspiration!

Orla and Damien were married at the beginning of December, last year. As the live in Edinburgh they felt it would be the best time of year to have all their friends and family in one place, their hometown of Lurgan. The gloriously sunny day was captured by Simon from Ciaran O’Neill Photography, Lurgan.

We simply adore Orla’s vintage style. Her elegant wedding gown with stunning beaded back detail worked perfectly with her fur stole and classic hair and makeup.

Following their ceremony in St Peters Church in Lurgan, Orla and Damien travelled in style to Ballymascanlon House Hotel in Dundalk where more festive fun and decor awaited them. Orla had chosen rich red bridesmaids gowns which added warmth to the chilly day and complimented the lush floral bouquets that featured pine cone and berry details.

Their cake was given a touch of the winter flair with snowflakes adorning the three tier beauty.

To read more of Orla and Damien’s love story make sure to pick up your copy of Issue 47, our Spring Summer 2015 magazine this weekend!
