    Married in the castle like a princess

    3bd6583af5a14653b7b54db2c9fe7f3e_XL.jpg

    ON Thursday, Claire Nolan, daughter of Ann and Pat Nolan of College Road married Mark Dennehy from Kerry in the Parade Tower of Kilkenny Castle, in a civil ceremony, surrounded by family and friends.
    They say that every little girl dreams of getting married like a princess, but until recently if you did not want to marry in a church, you had no choice but to make your vows in a registry office.
    In Kilkenny that was inside the Health Service Executive building at Lacken, which, at least had some lawn and trees outside, unlike some other counties which had very unromantic settings indeed.
    Since 2004, the registrar may perform a marriage outside of a registry office. There are conditions, however, and Ann Boyle, the registrar in Kilkenny says that they all make perfect sense considering existing regulations and our climate.
    The place must be public, in good repair and a solid structure, so no marquees in the garden and no beaches or mountaintops are allowed. It must be a dignified venue with no connection to any religion. There must be room for the guests to sit comfortably and access for those with physical disability.
    Claire Nolan arrived with her father by car to the Parade Tower. Staff at the castle, Frank Kavanagh and Anne Teehan were on hand to usher her into the lift to the second floor where there ceremony took place in front of waiting guests.
    Afterwards the celebration was in the Ormonde Hotel and the destination for the honeymoon, well, that was a secret.
    All at 32.ie wish the happy couple well in their future together.

    A very modern wedding to be sure :D

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    You look a very happy couple :) Big Congrats!

    Was it the first civil ceremony in Kilkenny Castle?

    No, we got permission first, but another couple came in after that with an earlier date than ours (June 18). And we watched the third couple getting married there yesterday. I think it's going to be a rather popular venue as it's a really impressive space to use.

    Are you trying to embrass the hell out of her or just make sure everyone knows she's taken :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,038 ✭✭✭✭Sparks


    The former :D
    Besides, they put up a thread on me in Shooting, so I figured what's good for the gander...

    I think Walls should start a thread in BGRH or TGC just to get her own back as well as to let everyone know that Sparks is now taken! :D

    Congratulations Mrs and Mr Walls! :p
