ERICA & OLIVER’S
MARQUEE WEDDING CELEBRATION IN BREATHTAKING WEST CORK
Erica & Oliver’s West Cork wedding was a three-day celebration filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable moments. It was literally the craic!!! With Erica hailing from St. Louis & Oliver from London, they had over 200 guests flying in from the US, UK, and beyond. The couple wanted to share the beauty of West Cork with their guests as it is such a special place for them both. We were delighted to work with Erica & Oliver on this gorgeous destination wedding, creating an unforgettable few days for them and their gorgeous family & friends. It was simply the best.
The festivities began with a lively welcome party in a traditional Irish pub, where guests soaked up the atmosphere, mixing with the locals, enjoying the music & pints with plenty of laughter — the perfect start to an Irish wedding weekend.
On the wedding day itself, Erica & Oliver exchanged vows in a heartfelt mass at the local church before slipping away with their wedding party for a quick celebratory pint in Minihans, a traditional Irish pub with the warmest of welcomes. Guests were treated to crisp champagne, handcrafted cocktails, and perfectly poured pints of Guinness and Murphy’s during a vibrant drinks reception, complete with traditional Irish music and delicious canapés. From there, celebrations continued in a bespoke marquee overlooking the stunning West Cork coastline. Dinner and some epic dancing followed in the stunning traditional pole marquee that was styled & designed to incorporate the natural surroundings & beautifully transformed with florals by Howe Hill Flowers.
As night fell, guests were led along a fairy-lit pathway to a secret late-night marquee, Erica’s Dive Bar — a playful space designed around the couple’s favourite sports teams and filled with their must-have American and Irish snacks. With an acoustic guitar setting the tone, the party continued with a sing-along that lasted well into the early hours.
The celebrations didn’t end there. The following day, guests reunited for a relaxed BBQ in the sunshine — the perfect finale to a wedding weekend that blended luxury with authenticity, and elegance with pure fun.
As their full bespoke wedding planners, we had the joy of curating every detail, creating a celebration that was as stylish and seamless as it was heartfelt and unforgettable. An absolute joy to work with such a wonderful couple.
