The last couple of years have thrown a lot at us, so we found ourselves quite often doing and seeing things at weddings for the first time. Katie and Jack’s was no different; It was our first wedding ceremony that also featured a christening - of their adorable son, Lucas.
We loved that Katie and Jack decided on a first look. Getting their portraits and family shots done before the ceremony meant we could avoid the stress of chasing the setting winter sun after the ceremony, and get great shots around Cathedral Quarter.
Jack founded the award winning bar, The Dead Rabbit, with his business partner, Sean Muldoon, in NYC. It’s been named as the best bar in the world for its cocktails and craic. So it was no surprise to see that they continued the theme of cocktails and craic at their wedding.
As much as any wedding we’ve shot, this one was about family. Katie and Jack pride themselves on their close connection to their family, and you could get a sense of it at every stage of the day. Sadly, Jack’s lovely mummy, Donna, passed away this year. She was the absolute life and soul of the wedding, from morning prep banter to heckling the speeches, before ripping up the dance-floor at night.
Finally, a big thanks to the great suppliers we worked with. We cannot believe the job that Hollie from Rosehip and Berry did with the reception room at Larchfield - it looked like a total dream. And, as always, Olivia Muldoon and Ricky from Rabbit and the Fox films were a pleasure to work with.
