Join us as we say ‘I do’ in Monte das Oliveiras, Albufeira on 26.9.26!!

Our Story

Our story began 9 years ago in Sense Nighclub Cookstown where we’d both been working part time during Uni. It wasn’t exactly love at first sight as we instantly clicked and became best friends (by sharing a tray of apple Sourz shots).

As the months went on we both ended up out for the night at Time Monday, here we shared our first kiss (although very drunken). This didn’t change much as we continued being best friends for 2 years until… Final year of uni came.

The Holylands set the scene and the feelings began to grow when we finally took the leap of faith and admitted how we truly felt about each other. After a trip to the Hatfield in December 18’, Eimear Mc accidentally/drunkenly referred to Eimear H as “my girlfriend” and the rest is history.

Now here we are, 7 years as partners In crime, with big girl jobs, our dream home, a stunning engagement in Santorini, our little sidekick Goujon 🐶 and gearing up for the most important day of our lives, which we can’t wait to share with our nearest and dearest.
