Our Love Story
Somewhere along the way, Adara and Darragh met and somehow became inseparable. One date turned into “sure we’ll see how it goes,” which turned into ten years of laughs, plans, chaos, comfort, and the steady choice to show up for each other every day, building a life that feels like home. Over the years we’ve made a million memories, supported each other through everything, and grown together in ways we’re grateful for every day. Now we’re making it official, one day, one room full of our favorite people, and a celebration of the love that’s brought us here. Thank you for being part of our story, we can’t wait to share this moment with you.

As The Mayson is a hotel, room rates will increase the closer we get to the wedding — so we recommend booking early if you plan to stay. We have a 10% discount code that can be used on their website, or you can call the hotel and they’ll apply the same discount over the phone. If you’d like to secure the lower rate, it’s best to pay a deposit to lock in the price. We’ll share the discount code on this site and on your invitation.

Wedding Party
Meet our lovely friends who will be by the side of the bride and groom on the big day.
Elise
Best friend, crisis manager, and professional “you’ve got this” person. Elise is Adara’s Maid of Honour, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Ben
For almost 30 years, Ben has been Darragh’s constant, the mate who brings the laughs, the quiet, and the deep chats, and still makes him feel like a kid again (plus keeping him out of trouble before 12:00).
Avril
Avril is one of Adara’s favourite humans, supportive, fun, and always up for a laugh. Bridesmaid duties: absolutely nailed.
Eric
Eric brings the energy every time, top-tier craic, rock-solid dependable, and the kind of friend Darragh can always count on.
Emma
Emma is living proof that the apple doesn’t just fall near the tree, it lands with perfect eyeliner and a skincare routine we all envy. Whether she’s giving you a high-end style intervention or hitting you with a lightning-fast comeback, Emma knows exactly who she is. She’s the perfect mix of glamour and grit, and she'll definitely be the funniest person at your table.
Keela
If there’s a conversation happening, Keela is likely leading it. A whirlwind of energy and high-level "intel" (mostly gossip), she’s the girl who ensures there is never a dull moment. Keela doesn't just enter a room; she brings the party with her. If you’re looking for the inside scoop or just a boost of pure confidence, she’s your girl—just try to keep up!
