Rachael & Damian, Ox Cave & City Hall, Belfast City Centre, N. Ireland

Written By Rachel Cooke

Rachael and Damian were married on a very sunny Saturday in Belfast city centre in March 2022. Rachael got ready in The Merchant Hotel and arrived to city hall in a Rolls Royce. The ceremony was intimate with a small number of family and friends attending. We then took a walk through the city centre for some natural, relaxed photos with the first step being the cathedral quarter near the Harp Bar. We then walked to the steps of The Merchant Hotel, The Barge Belfast and back across the road to Ox Cave where the couple had their wedding reception. Guests arrived shortly after and were treated to champagne and a speech from Damian then an amazing dinner. Makeup was by Tippy, flowers by The Floralicious Designs, transport by T H Chauffeur Service and hair by Emma Graves at Andrew Mulvenna Hair.
