Firstly you are not alone in your quest for a wedding less ordinary. There are others out there just like you and secondly, you'll be relieved to know there is help and it comes in the shape of the One of a Kind Wedding Event which is taking place on Sunday 27th February in the fabulous Guinness Store House. This event is all about showcasing alternative wedding suppliers and services - many of which, you'll not be surprised to learn, have previously been profiled on this blog. There will be seminars, a vintage bridal show and discussion forums, as well as competitions and spot prizes on the day. Much more than the average wedding fair this event will help you understand the options for weddings in Ireland whether it be a church followed by a castle in a remote and rural setting or a civil ceremony and reception in a funky urban venue. And the tickets are shockingly good value. €10 on the door or €7 if you buy online.
And seeing as Linda and Aisling, the event organisers, are such fans of the blog and love how it captures the off beat spirit which their event is all about they've given me three pairs of tickets to give away. Yes, three pairs!!! Be sure to drop back on Monday for details of how to enter.

I can't wait to go to this and see what it's like. Can't wait to meet everyone too! This is what Ireland needs. Let's get out of the 80s, eh? Too much cheesiness (hope that's a word?) in the wedding world here :)

Yeah I think this is going to be a right kick up the bum for the wedding industry in Ireland. Time to inject some creativity!
