Bruce and Ann Bedford renewing their wedding vows in Ireland – Ashford Castle Gardens

The primary purpose for our visit to Ireland and Ashford Castle was to witness and partake in the celebration of my wife’s parents 50th wedding anniversary. For this historic event my mother-in-law requested that they renew their vows in the Rose Garden of Ashford Castle… so it would be! The whole Bedford family including the kids, grand kids and even Aunt Bonnie were on hand for the ceremony. My brother-in-law Jason, who is much better with words, would be the one to do the honers (so to speak!)

I got to walk Granny Ann down the path for the second time and then did my best to document the entire event in photos. It was a very nice ceremony and a perfect place to have it! Afterwords we hustled back to the Castle for a lavish dinner in the main dinning room to be followed by a surprise wedding cake courtesy of the Ashford Castle staff. As you will see in the photos… everyone had a great time!
