Eilionoir and Eoin's classy Vintage Dublin City wedding.

I am so in love with this next wedding. I love a good city wedding and I love even more when that wedding couple is as relaxed as Eilionoir and Eoin were. First up was City Hall for the civil ceremony. What an amazing venue for a wedding. A building so steeped in Irish history, you can still see the bullet holes on some of the statues if you look closely. Nowadays however, things are a little different and we get to see beautiful ceremonies and happy memories created in this beautifully designed building.
After the lovely ceremony there was time for a drinks reception in City Hall. We then went for a stroll in Dublin city where we stopped in places for some lovely photo ops. The happy couple went on to Fallon & Byrne to celebrate into the night :) congrats to Eilionoir and Eoin!

4 Fine Foodies, Pop up Supper club!

Those who know me, know I love good food. I love to try new things and taste rich intense flavours. I can't cook to save my life, but I appreciate anyone who can and see it for the art that it is. So! When Hilary from Blas Catering asked me if I'd take some photos of her pop up venture Supper Club in Dublin, I was a made an offer I couldn't refuse! So to explain a little bit, Hilary is part of 4 fine foodies, 4 lovely chef ladies/cookery tutors/bloggers/food stylists, who are setting up supper clubs to share their foody talent with us all. So for a fine fare price, everyone was treated this time to a 5 course meal (and a yummy glass of Prosecco)
The first evening was hosted from 4 Leeson Lane (Lesson Lane Baristas) and went fabulously. I'm drooling thinking about the food. In particular the oh so tender lamb that fell of the bone...(Homer drool noise) Amazing. There was a lovely atmosphere as we all sat together and chatted away. It reminded me of eating family style except with people I didn't know but felt I did, as I rambled on probably a bit too much ;) Anyway! A fab evening was had and I can't wait to see what the girls pop up with next ;)
