The grounds of&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/theeurope.com\/\">The Europe Hotel<\/a>&nbsp;in Ireland created the perfect, romantic ambiance for the couple to exchange vows. The bride wore a laced gown, and the groom dressed in a royal blue tuxedo. Their breathtaking surroundings and elegant&nbsp;attire allowed for truly astonishing photos by&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/katiefarrellphotography.com\" target=\"_blank\">Katie Farrell Photography<\/a>. Though their day was full of serious beauty, the couple added light-hearted jokes to&nbsp;their vows and offered guests a day filled with ice cream and other fun sweet treats. We absolutely love this gorgeous wedding!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Couple:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Ben and Dee<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Wedding:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/theeurope.com\/\">The Europe Hotel<\/a>,&nbsp;Killarney, Ireland<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 18pt;\"><em>The Inspiration:<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>We wanted the day to feel relaxed and to be full of colour, yet remain simple and non-fussy throughout. We wanted to bring a modern feel to the traditional wedding by adding colour to as much as we could without going overboard, therefore keeping an easy sense of style to the occasion.&nbsp;This theme carried over into the wedding dress, which was beautifully elegant, and the bridesmaids dresses, which were completely unique, mixing a strong sense of style and colour, offering a look that was also very non-traditional.&nbsp;The Groomsmen all wore different shades of blue to complement the bridesmaids dresses, but also to work well with the Groom&rsquo;s royal blue tuxedo, that took a modern twist on a classic look.&nbsp;Our favourite flower is the Gerbera, which exemplified everything about our vision for the day &ndash; vibrantly colourful, simple yet elegant at the same time. The most important thing was that we wanted the day to reflect us and our personalities, not traditions or conformities.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone
