My Wedding Day with Seán Mistéal: 'People thought we were mad not having a table plan, but everyone mingled'

On the morning of the wedding, my father pulled back the curtains and calmly said, “It’s a fine day to get married.” The weather gods smiled on us
My Wedding Day with Seán Mistéal: 'People thought we were mad not having a table plan, but everyone mingled'

Seán Mistéal and his wife Rianne at Dún Chaoin in Kerry.

We got married on May 3, 2019, in Ballyferriter in West Kerry. It was a humanist wedding, and we had it outdoors. This lovely cafe, called Tig Áine, has a wonderful space out the back where the scenery is absolutely breathtaking, and that’s where we had the ceremony.

We took a chance with the date for an outdoor wedding; you never know with the weather. The day before was howling wind and rain; I mean horizontal winds. But on the morning of the wedding, my father pulled back the curtains and calmly said, “It’s a fine day to get married.” The weather gods smiled on us.
