For dinner and dancing, your backdrop, depending on the wedding party size will either be Rathsallagh’s elegant dining room or the bright and airy Pavilion.

Such beautiful and special moments captured by SOSAC Photography; a husband and wife team of Shane & Adele O’Sullivan based in County Waterford. Shane is the talented photographer behind the lens whilst Adele is the creative, assisting behind the scenes. They have a beautiful philosophy in their approach to capturing your day:

“Life moves way too quickly. Photography, at it’s most powerful, can ensure it doesn’t pass us by. By capturing and preserving a moment in time, it can forever more remind us of how it felt to be the in that place at that time. The unique atmosphere, the emotions we experienced and the love we felt. A vivid reminder that life is precious and we should slow down and take time to enjoy it”.For the wedding florals we went with a full mixture of Roses, Hydrangeas, Lisianthus, Anthurium, Eucalyptus, Hypericum and Astilbe.
