The countdown is on to the biggest day of a couple’s life…

A Week to My Wedding features ordinary couples taking, what is essentially, an extraordinary step.  This year over 24,000 couples will say ‘I do’.  The average wedding will cost over 21,000 euro and no wedding is the same.   In this new series, we join six couples with one week to go.   A week set to be one of the most intense, stressful, unpredictable and exciting week of their lives.

Episode 4 – Roisin and Darren

TX – 24th September 2015

Waterford couple Roisin McDonagh and Darren Ryan met at a friends wedding when they happened to sit beside each other at the reception.  Roisin has been planning their wedding day since Darren proposed over a year ago.  From designing their invites, to making flower girl wands, Roisin has put her heart and soul into everything.    A graphic designer Roisin is currently on maternity leave.  They have two daughters, Harper and Dakota.  They will be flower babies on the wedding day.

Solidifying their family unit is very important to Darren and Roisin.  The couple do not consider their wedding traditional.  With Darren working most of the week, Roisin will be in charge of all the final preparations; including getting their Golden Labrador, Roxie ready to walk up the aisle.  Roxie is their ring bearer. They have chosen to have a humanist ceremony. The meaning of the ceremony is very important to them as a couple and family. Most of their guests won’t have been to one before.
