From Best Friends to Forever: Georgia & Turlough’s Lurgan Golf Club Wedding
Some love stories begin with a spark. Others begin with friendship. For Georgia and Turlough, it was the latter—a connection that started at a wedding in 2018 and blossomed into a love that would last a lifetime.
A Friendship That Became Forever
Georgia from Derrymacash and Turlough, a classroom assistant from Belfast, met at a wedding seven years before their own special day. “We have been best friends since,” Turlough explains. “We have pretty much grown up together.”
After years of friendship and love, Turlough knew exactly where to propose. He chose the stunning Silver Strand in Delphi, County Mayo—a long, beautiful beach where he asked Georgia to be his wife. It was the perfect setting for the beginning of their next chapter.
Finding the Perfect Dress
Finding the Perfect DressFor Georgia, finding her wedding dress was a truly special experience. She chose Perfect Day in Lurgan, where Bernie and the team helped her find “the one.””Bernie and the girls were so helpful and kind in helping me select the perfect dress,” Georgia recalls. “10/10, a really lovely memory.”Planning the Big DayLike most couples, Georgia and Turlough found wedding planning to be a mix of excitement and stress. The most exciting part? “Booking our honeymoon was really exciting,” they share. The most stressful? “Definitely the invites were a bit stressful.”But through it all, they kept their focus on what mattered most—celebrating their love with the people who meant the most to them.FFor Georgia, finding her wedding dress was a truly special experience.

A Perfect June Day
On 19th June 2025, Georgia and Turlough tied the knot at St Patrick’s Derrymacash, followed by an intimate reception for five at Lurgan Golf Club.
“Our wedding day was perfect,” the couple beams. “Everyone said they had a lovely time and the food was amazing.”
The day was blessed with gorgeous weather, making their photo session in Lurgan Park a surreal and beautiful experience. “We were so blessed with gorgeous weather,” they remember.
A Morning to Remember
The day didn’t start without a bit of drama, though. On the morning of the wedding, Turlough was driving to his house to get ready when disaster nearly struck. “I blew a tire after a piece of masonry fell off a quarry truck and hit my car,” he recalls. But even this unexpected hiccup couldn’t dampen the joy of the day ahead.
Captured Moments
Working with photographer Simon (from Ciaran O’Neill Photography) was a highlight of the day. “Simon absolutely helped us enjoy our day and relax,” the couple says. “He was always telling us to just enjoy because it goes past so quickly. He has a great sense of humour.”
The couple chose Ciaran O’Neill Photography because of their “stellar reputation as fantastic photographers,” and they weren’t disappointed.
When asked about their favourite photograph, Georgia and Turlough didn’t hesitate: “The photos of us meeting at the top of the aisle are our favourite. It’s nice to see captured the moment we spent so much time planning and stressing over.”
Dancing Into Forever
For their first dance, Georgia and Turlough chose “I’ll Be Here in the Morning” by Townes Van Zandt—a beautiful, heartfelt song that perfectly captured their commitment to one another.
Words of Wisdom
After their perfect day, Georgia and Turlough have some advice for couples planning their own weddings:
“We would say just relax and enjoy the day for what it is. You can’t control everything. It’s all worth it on the day.”
It’s advice born from experience—from a blown tire on the morning of the wedding to the stress of invitations, they learned that the unexpected moments don’t define the day. What matters is the love you’re celebrating and the people you’re celebrating with.
A Greek Adventure
After their beautiful wedding day, Georgia and Turlough jetted off to Rhodes, Greece, for their honeymoon—the perfect way to begin their married life together.
From best friends to husband and wife, Georgia and Turlough’s wedding was a celebration of a love that grew naturally over seven years. Their day at St Patrick’s Derrymacash and Lurgan Golf Club was filled with sunshine, laughter, genuine emotion, and all the beautiful moments that make a wedding truly unforgettable.
Congratulations to Georgia and Turlough! Thank you for trusting us to capture your special day.
