From Texas to Galway
When Madeline & Grady decided to host their destination wedding in their beautiful family holiday home in Galway, they needed some help with the marquee logistics, planning and styling. I was delighted to help them bring their Irish wedding dreams to life. The West of Ireland weather didn’t want to make things easy for us so we had to work on our Plan B. We proved that with the right team behind you, anything is possible. Their soft colour palette was just perfect for this elegant, timeless celebration.

“Working with Nessa was truly the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding. From day one, she brought such warmth, organisation, creativity, and openness to the wedding planning process, and her vendor connections were so invaluable that no one else could have pulled off such a beautiful and flawless wedding!
Nessa had fantastic ideas, listened to our vision, was willing to pivot when I changed my mind or came across new ideas, and kept us calm through every challenge. She genuinely cared about bringing our love story to life, and it was obvious how much heart and dedication she poured into executing every detail.
Our ceremony was planned to be outdoors, but due the unprecedented storms that hit Ireland right before our wedding, Nessa and her team had to quickly pivot and work tirelessly to move our ceremony indoors into the same space as our reception and then redo the entire space during our cocktail hour to turn it back into our reception space, all without our guests having any clue. Despite having to switch gameplays at the last minute, Nessa and her team pulled it off flawlessly, and it turned out even more beautiful and perfect than we could have imagined!
Our wedding day flowed perfectly. We didn’t have to think about a single thing except enjoying every moment. Every flower, every picture, every detail, every moment felt like us. It was beautiful beyond words, and we were able to be completely present, surrounded by the people we love most in the world, because Nessa took care of absolutely everything with grace and calm.
So many of our guests were so emotional at our wedding and shared with us that our wedding was the best, most beautiful, and most fun wedding they had ever been to and that they were genuinely grateful that they got to experience something so magical and full of love. Even our vendors had a ball! It was everything we dreamed of and more, and we owe it all to Nessa and her phenomenal team.
If you want someone who doesn’t just plan weddings, but truly creates memories that last forever, Nessa is that person. We can’t put into words how grateful we are to Nessa and cannot recommend her enough! Thank you, Nessa, from the bottom of our hearts!”
