OLLEGE sweethearts Claire O’Sullivan and Niall O’Mahony tied the knot in Killarney recently. Claire, form Tralee, and Killarney native Niall were wed in St Mary's Cathedral, Killarney, by Fr Joe Begley, and held their reception in The Malton Hotel. Photographer Padraig Healy captured the big day on camera including a photo-shoot at Killarney Railway Station. Helping them celebrate were both sets of parents, Brigid and John O’Sullivan and Bridie and Neil O’Mahony. The bride’s brother Brian O’Sullivan and his girlfriend Rebecca Driscoll and Claire’s sister Laura O’Sullivan (maid of honour) were the other immediate family members present. Claire’s friends Lorraine Counihan and Catriona Maloney were her bridesmaids while Niall’s friends also lent their support, with Hugh O’Donoghue as best man and Mike O’Donoghue and Andrew Garnett as groomsmen. Claire and Niall are both primary school teachers, with Claire working at St Oliver’s National School, Ballycasheen, and Niall in Kilcummin National School. Their paths first crossed when they were attending Mary Immaculate College. “We got engaged in Dromoland Castle on May 29, 2015,” said Claire. “A surprise trip to New York followed for ring shopping.” Patrice O’Connor and Morgan Pierce provided the church music and at the reception Truly Diverse and DJ Niall “Botty” O’Callaghan entertained into the small hours. “Truly Diverse were amazing and ensured the dance floor was full at all times, and Botty made sure it remained so well into the early hours,” said the bride. Talented Killarney makeup artist Marilyn McSweeney created the bride and her party’s makeup looks and a childhood neighbour of Claire’s, Tina Goodall of Aspire Hair Salon, Tralee, took care of the bridal hairstyling, The newlyweds, who will reside in Killarney, honeymooned in Australia for three weeks.
