We are in love with today’s real wedding and we know you will be too. Anna and Conall celebrated their forever love with an elegant country house wedding brimming with simple and stunning style. Their celebration at Ballyscullion Park in Bellaghy had a monochrome focus with tonal pops of pink throughout. There’s sleek bridal style, breathtaking flowers, one of the hottest wedding cake trends, brilliant lawn games, and so much more to look forward. So much divine documentary-style imagery awaits you from Sheena T Photography too. Enjoy!
Anna and Conall are from Co. Derry and they live in Portglenone, Co. Antrim. They met during Fresher’s Week at university in 2014 and they got engaged in Galway in July 2021.
Anna and Conall dreamt of a relaxed summer celebration and making their wedding fun for all their loved ones was their top priority along with scrumptious food.
Wedding morning style goals from the bridal party!
The glowing bride opted for a stunning sleek bun and she wore beautiful flower drop earrings by luxury Northern Ireland bridal accessories designer Megan Therese Couture.
Anna was a picture of timeless elegance wearing the Amelia dress by Suzanne Neville, a sleek Italian crepe gown with cap sleeves, a low back and a flowing train which she accessorised with pretty pearl heels by Rainbow Club.
It doesn’t get more timeless! Conall and his groomsmen looked impeccable in black tuxes from Freddie Hatchet.
As real coffee lovers, one of their absolute must-haves was a coffee cart for after the mass.
Anna wanted to keep the aesthetic simplistic to let the flowers and the natural beauty of their romantic venue shine bright.
The flowers by Tortraits Floral Designs were jaw-droppingly beautiful and they included tonal hues of pink, purple and red. Tea roses, sweet scabious, carnations, and clematis, were included within the beautiful bouquets.
The couple tied the knot at St Patrick’s Church in Dungiven in Co. Derry. They were joined by 150 of their nearest and dearest to celebrate.
That ‘Just Married’ feeling – you can’t beat it!
Surrounded by magical woodlands and boasting views of Lough Beg and Church Island, classical reception rooms, and a three-acre walled garden, their reception venue left their wedding guests enthralled.
When it comes to getting organised in the run up to the big day Anna swears by spreadsheets. “And just enjoy every minute, it really does fly in,” she adds.
Blush bridesmaid dresses are a firm favourite for many bridal parties and it’s not hard to see why. A soft and subtle shade, blush is such an enduringly elegant colour for your best gals. Anna’s leading ladies wore shining satin ruched halter neck gowns from ASOS.
The couple knew Ballyscullion was ‘the one’ once they set eyes on the gorgeous gardens which took their drinks reception and marquee reception to new heights of romantic.
“Ballyscullion also gives the freedom to add your own spin on things for example our tables were all banquet style and we didn’t have the traditional ‘top table’ which we loved,” the couple reflect. “It was lovely to have choice with all this.”
“The small vases on the tables were all flowers handpicked by my mammy, from our garden at home. They looked amazing!” We wholeheartedly concur!
We’ve never met a Lambeth buttercream wedding cake we’ve not loved. Anna and Conall’s heart-shaped confection was simply dreamy.
They had a brilliant line-up of lawn games which were a huge hit with guests.
They shared their first dance to I Just Wanna Dance with You by John Prine.
The couple kept the good times rolling as they flew to Ibiza straight after the wedding for some sun-soaked R ‘n’ R.
