The Couple

Tell us a little bit about how you met

We met in Antipodean Pub in London 5 years ago called Temple Walkabout at a Halloween After Party- I was wearing a Zombie Bride outfit, so our fate was sealed!

Talk us through the proposal

For my Birthday Conor surprised me by making me a four-course meal at our home with hundreds of candles outside and inside the flat.

The Setting

Ceremony

St Patick's and St Brigid's Church, Glenariffe

Reception

Galgorm, Lower Great Hall

Why the Galgorm Resort and Spa?

Immediately when we saw Galgorm, we both fell in love with the surroundings and facilities, so much that we didn't even bother looking at any other Wedding venues! The spa, accommodation, and food are world class and I wanted to ensure that I show my guests an amazing time.

From our very first appointment, the Galgorm Wedding Team and Hotel had been amazing and accommodating.

Our MOC made us feel at ease on the day and had everything under control.

What made you choose a Resort location?

We had over half of our guests from overseas, as far as New Zealand. I wanted to ensure that I find somewhere that represents beautiful Irish hospitality and surroundings. Galgorm was also very convenient to Conor's hometown Glenariffe and close to the airports in Belfast.

The Dream Team

Galgorm Wedding Planner

Karen Beech, although everyone I spoke to was incredibly helpful. They were very accommodating and we got the Wedding of my dreams, which I am going to look back fondly on many years from now.
