Mountain View Kilkenny Wedding – Shauna & Rich

Mountain View Kilkenny Wedding – Shauna & Rich

I first met Shauna & Rich a couple of weeks before their wedding. Rich despises having his photo taken so Shauna thought it would be a good idea for us to meet beforehand so he could get used to me. We ended up on the pints! Of course, we did. Was a great icebreaker though so by the time the wedding rolled around we were best pals. It’s one way to get to know each other.

They both got ready in the Rivercourt Hotel in Kilkenny. It’s about a 25 minute drive from there to Mount View Kilkenny so it was very handy. I hopped between the two of them and the buzz was electric. Shauna’s sister (and only bridesmaid), Jenna, couldn’t attend the wedding because she lives in Australia. Stupid Covid. So we made sure to include her as much as possible throughout the day. She was a constant chatter in the corner during bridal prep, doing her own hair and makeup and sending photos of her in her bridesmaid dress. Where there’s a will there’s a way.

Mountain View Kilkenny Wedding Ceremony

When I say I gasped when I saw the outdoor ceremony space in Mountain View Kilkenny, I am not exaggerating. It’s absolutely stunning, like nothing I’ve seen in Ireland before. The ceremony was intimate but also good fun with guests and the couple breaking out in laughter many times. You love to see it.

Mountain View Kilkenny Wedding Reception

Shauna & Rich were adamant they weren’t missing their drinks reception. So with a cocktail in hand and Martin Healy at the wheel of the golf buggy we zipped around the grounds for some fun couples pictures. Jobs a good ‘un.

After that, they got down to the business of just having a good time, and man did they accomplish that.
