Ireland to compete in the World Cup?!

YES!! It’s true!  Ireland will be competing in the World Cup this summer!  Well, not exactly.  The World Cup in South Africa won’t be seeing any Irish team, but  the World Wife Carrying Championships in Finland sure will!!

We participated last year and won 3rd place in the relay race and “Most Entertaining Couple” in the main event, so naturally we are going back again this year to defend our titles!!

We are looking for sponsors to make this voyage to Finland to represent our country in the prestigious sport of “Wife Carrying”!

If you are interested in sponsoring the Irish Wife Carrying Team, then please drop me an email ciara[at]weddingdates[dot]ie or via our Facebook page.
