Breda And PJ Start New Year As Mr And Mrs

Yesterday’s prevailing wind, snow and rain went totally unnoticed as the very lovely Miss Breda Kirwan, daughter of Mrs Kathleen and Mr Joe Kirwan, Horse and Jockey, Thurles, Co Tipperary, married Mr P. J. Maher, latter son of Mrs Breda and Mr James Maher, Dunkerrin, Birr, Co. Offaly.

A stunning bride was escorted down the aisle by her father Joe and the ceremony was performed by Rev Fr.George Bourke PP ably assisted by Rev Fr.Pat Mulcahy, in the quaint and historic church of St Peter, in Moycarkey, Thurles, in the diocese of Cashel and Emly.

Here, the couple publicly proclaimed their love for each other in front of a large gathering of family and friends before joining close family members for photographs.

Following the event the new Mr and Mrs Maher retired to the popular local wedding venue, the Anner Hotel, latter situated on the outskirts of Thurles town.

Here guests were entertained, on arrival, to light refreshments before joining the newly married couple at a lavish banquet, which was followed by music and dancing late into the evening.

The couple have chosen to tour America as their favoured honeymoon destination and from all their many friends and admirers in Co.Tipperary, go best wishes to them both for a happy and very prosperous life together.
