Andy and\u00a0Eibhl\u00edn’s wedding at Bloomfield House Hotel<\/a> on October 2nd 2015 was all they hoped for and more. An unexpected flash mob when they least expected it and the sweetest father-daughter moments we have ever seen, made their day truly special. <\/p>\n

This pair of newlyweds didn’t stop smiling all day…<\/p>\n

Andy proposed during a family break to Glasgow with his daughter Moya for New Year\u2019s Eve 2014. After a few hiccups initially, he finally got to ask that all-important question!<\/p>\n

\u201cMy stomach was doing somersaults all day. I had planned to take Eibhl\u00edn to a nice restaurant in the city but when we got there, as it was New Year’s Eve, it was closing early. I started sweating even more! We wandered for a few minutes when I came across a restaurant that my family had Christmas dinner in a few years before called Caf\u00e9 India. It’s a really nice Indian restaurant which, more importantly was OPEN!! By the time we were shown to our seats, I just wanted to be sick! I was so nervous – which isn’t really like me. We were in a small corner of the restaurant and my excuse for not getting \tdown on one knee was it was too cramped! It was pure nerves if I’m being totally honest. Eibh was totally gobsmacked! I think the phrase, \u2018Oh My God!\u2019 was used about 10 times! She said yes, much to my relief and we had a wee kiss. Afterwards we partied until the early hours of the morning at my friend\u2019s house.\u201d<\/p>\n

“Eibh had stayed in Bloomfield House<\/a> with her aunties on a getaway and said the staff <\/span> were really nice and the place had a lovely, welcoming atmosphere. We did a bit of research online and went to view a couple of other venues before we eventually went to <\/span> Bloomfield. From the minute we walked <\/span> into the place we were treated so well by Joanne and all the staff. An area was <\/span> reserved for us, we were given tea and cakes and everything was explained to us – the <\/span> various packages, the options within those packages and the costs. We decided to book<\/span>\u00a0only 20 mins after leaving the hotel!! We had only got to Delvin <\/span> before <\/span> we were on the phone booking our wedding date!!”<\/span>

“Each and every staff member at the hotel takes pride in their work. They were very attentive and made sure each guest had a wonderful stay. Throughout the planning stage of our wedding, nothing was any trouble.\u00a0<\/span>Every guest commented on the quality of the food and the fact they were all offered seconds, went down very well!”<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went down to Bloomfield for Valentine’s Day this year. Four months after our wedding, the staff all called us by name when we came in. Given the sheer numbers of guests that come through the doors of the hotel that just shows how good they are at their jobs in our opinion.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur photographer David Maury<\/a> was so relaxed. He wasn’t pushy in any way, shape or form. We wanted a photographer who would blend in with our guests as much as possible and he did just that. He’s an absolute gentleman who took some fantastic shots on the day!\u201d<\/p>\n

After a traditional bagpiper introduced Andy and Eibhl\u00edn as husband and wife, there was a surprise in store from the least-likely suspects – their GUESTS! <\/p>\n

\u201cWe had no idea what was happening but before we knew it there around 30 of our friends standing behind and around us in a semi circle. Next thing they are started singing \u2018Caravan Of Love\u2019 acapella!!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of Eibh’s friends had come up with the idea. Set up a website and made contact with other guests. She assigned male and female parts of the song, sent videos of how she wanted it done and they only had ONE practice session in the hotel while we were getting our photographs taken.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt absolutely blew us away! I had tears streaming down my face. It was amazing. It just topped off an absolutely fantastic day.\u201d<\/p>\n
