I don't really have the words to describe the loveliness of Christine and Scott's wedding. Every single detail was crafted by Christine, mums Bairbre and Heather and sisters and bridesmaids and friends who travelled from all corners of the globe to not only be part of the day, but to make the day.
I think the pictures tell the story far better than I ever could. Go make a cup of tea. Slice up some cake. Enjoy!
