  1. Local Marriage Customs

    Share Share Post
    For the last ten years or so marriages take place previous to Nuptial Mass in the early morning. The bridal pair go to Dublin, Galway or such like place on their honey moon. In some cases they just take a motor drive for the day returning for the dinner to the bridegroom's house. The old-fashioned weddings are a thing of the past.
