We Can’t Help But Love this Romantic Wedding in Ireland

Share

Newlywed couple kissing on their wedding day in a garden setting

It’s true, we can’t help but love Rachel & KC’s romantic destination wedding in Ireland, and we’re betting you will too! After 12 years together, this model status couple celebrated their love + their Irish heritage with a destination wedding at the historic Cliff at Lyons estate outside Dublin.

With minimal decor and a short guest list, they kept their wedding simple yet elegant and we especially love the pops of red and black throughout. Catch a closer look below photographed by Studio Brown and in the full gallery after.

From Studio Brown

Hailing from California, Rachel & KC planned an intimate destination wedding to Ireland with 30 of their closest family and friends. They opted for the charming Cliff at Lyons, an historic rose-clad estate outside Dublin for their ceremony followed by the laid back Ely Wine Bar for their dinner reception. Their style was elegant, timeless and minimal.

classic and intimate

Amidst the classic white and gold colours, Rachel opted for jewel tone earrings & florals to tie in the Irish connection. Having been together for 12 years before their wedding, Rachel & KC essentially grew up together. They weathered the many storms of life which has only brought them closer together. It was important to them both to stay authentic and true to themselves by keeping the wedding intimate and having the people that love them most share in their day.
