New Year's Day in Bonane Church, Kenmore
Kim (American) and John (from Macroom) live together in California and came all the way to Bonane Church outside Kenmore to have their wedding ceremony! The church is really cosy and looked so gorgeous all done up for the Christmas season. We sat up in the balcony for this one and had a birds eye view of the congregation as they were asked to join in the Nuptial Blessing by raising their right arm. The music we played during the ceremony was as follows:
Processional: Canon in D
Responsorial Psalm: Mo Ghrá Thú
Alleluia: Seinn Alleluia
Lighting of the Marriage Candle: Air on a G String
Offertory Procession: Ag Críost An Síol
Communion: 1. Ave Verum Corpus, 2. Flower Duet
Signing of the Register: 1. Where is my mind?? 2. The Shining
Recessional: Trumpet Voluntary
They were so nice to us on the day, such lovely warm people, thanks so much John and Kim and congratulations!!!!

I don't know if there's any appropriate time or place to mention this, but if you are having your wedding here, there were no restroom facilities available to us on the day so maybe notify your guests if you're marrying here, or check it out for yourself and prove me wrong and let me know!
