MJ & Lucca’s Wild and Joyful Wedding at Loughrea Hotel & Spa – A Galway Celebration Full of Heart
Some weddings just hit different — and MJ & Lucca’s big day at the gorgeous Loughrea Hotel & Spa in County Galway was one of them. Wild weather, full hearts, and a hotel packed with love and laughter — this day had it all.
💄 Morning Prep – Laughter, Wind & Glam
The morning started wet and wild, but MJ and her crew were buzzing. In her suite at Loughrea Hotel, MJ was surrounded by close friends and family, and the energy was electric. The Galway wind was howling outside — but inside, it was all love and calm vibes.
Makeup: @cbeautywithfiona kept everyone glowing and smiling, cool as ever.
Hair: @gleamglowhair worked pure magic, creating natural, wind-proof styles with a smile.
MJ’s dress from @tdrbridalbirmingham was simply breathtaking — when she stepped into it, the entire room just stopped. That moment you dream of? This was it.
🤵 Lucca & The Lads – All Craic, No Stress
Down the road, Lucca and the lads were still laughing from the night before. The energy was unreal. They helped him into the suit, had a few sly jokes and sips, and made sure he was ready and looking sharp — full of confidence, suited and booted.
💍 Ceremony – Intimate, Honest, Full of Love
Led by the brilliant @mkceremonies, the ceremony was packed with laughter, heartfelt moments, and real emotion. You could feel the connection — not just between MJ & Lucca, but among the entire group. That room was full of love.
Outside, we battled the wind — but embraced it. The veil flew, the hair swirled, and the smiles got even bigger. That’s Ireland, and that’s what made this wedding even more iconic.
🎉 Party Time – Galway Style at Loughrea Hotel
The staff at @loughreahotelandspa were next-level — warm, efficient, and sound out. From the prep to the party, everything flowed effortlessly.
Florals: @pampasbox / @pampasboxweddings dressed the room in natural textures and timeless elegance.
DJ: @djlloydbracken brought the house down. He knows how to lift a room and had the floor packed from the start.
