Michelle came along with a new haircut.

Dad heard Ireland was dangerous so he kept guard.


Most nights were filled with home made music. Here Uncle does battle with Noel in a vocal showdown.


Steve gets a last minute haircut and is very happy that his ears are still in one piece.


Then the day arrives. Steve tries to find his dropped contact lens just before the wedding.


You couldn't get the smile off Karen's face with a corkscrew...we tried.


Noelle wouldn't let anyone else be co-bridesmaids. Underneath that sweet exterior lurks one tough woman.


and the piper played Waltzing Matilda as the young 'uns spun down the floor (note the digital toy in the groom's right hand).


Steve shakes out a speech. He was nervous because he had no idea what nasty secrets were going to be revealed in my speech.


The mums come up and receive their oscars.


This was the view from the bridal/technology table.


An All-Ireland champion exhibitionist gives a half time performance.


Steve and Karen decide to get their moneys worth out of the day.
