PERFECT SETTING FOR OUR WEDDING PERFECT SETTING FOR OUR WEDDING
when I was younger I used to walk down the lane to the beach passing this picturesque building. The character and situation of this idyllic church near the beach in Cushendun in my eyes was perfect. So when I was asked to get married my first response apart from "Yes" was I want to get married in this church. After booking the church we were able to organise everything in it the way we wanted from the layout, music, and flowers etc. This place made myself, my husband and all our guests feel that we were the only people in the world and the photographer got some fantastic memories of the day at the church and the beach.when I was younger I used to walk down the lane to the beach passing this picturesque building.
