Lusty Beg Wedding

Joanna and Michael’s Lusty Beg wedding forecast rain, and I was booked from Enniskillen, County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland, for bridal preparations for the wedding ceremony and reception in Kesh.

I’m so glad I was booked as last minute wedding as the special day was great from the start (although a little wet!) to finish. In the morning, I made my way to Joanna’s family home, where the girls had hair and make-up already finished earlier with Joanna’s parents, sister and bridal party. There were a few clips of the wedding dress hanging up before filming some bridal preparations and everyone chilling out relaxing, making for a very relaxed morning indeed. Also, a few things like cards and flowers by Clare Flowers.

Closer to leaving, the girls changed into their Perfect Day wedding dresses, everyone looking fantastic, by the way, with Joanna looking the most spectacular in her Perfect Day wedding dress! The campervan by Star Car Hire arrived, and before the family left, I grabbed a few more shots before I headed off to the couple’s Lustybeg Island wedding. My stat nav told me the night before it would take 30 minutes, but for some reason, it had changed to 1 hour, so I was already late as it was, thanks to Apple Maps! When I arrived for the lusty couple’s wedding on the shores of Lough Erne, there, as you’d expect, was too long of a queue, so I parked in the car park, grabbed my gear, and briskly headed to the ceremony room.

Have a quick browse through my wedding in Lusty Beg. The place is certainly unique, and we all had a great day. Let’s chat about your wedding in Lusty Beg Island; I’d love to be a part of it.

The minister, Eleanor Hayden, was already there with Michael and the groomsmen, so I quickly set up my second camera and audio microphones as I needed sound recorded as well as beside the wedding singer, Lisa Murphy and keyboard player at the back of the room. The ceremony room was well decorated. The bridal party walked up the aisle first, then the bride, accompanied by her dad, walked in lastly, and the ceremony commenced as you’d expect from a minister. It was quite religious but not too much, along with a good selection of hymns.

There were two speakers, Andrew, Joanna’s brother and also Allen, Michael’s brother. Both didn’t pick up the microphone, so I simply moved behind the bride and groom and positioned myself as close as possible to the speakers so I could record readings. There was some fun to be had in the ceremony as it was quite light-hearted.

Afterwards, guests made their way to the lounge area, and Joanna and Michael headed out beside the Beetle Campervan before the chauffeur was finished. At this stage, it was still raining, so there was a canopy beside the ceremony room windows.

Reception in Lusty Beg

Before the guests were called in for wedding celebrations, as the speeches were about to start, there was some quick footage of the fab cake by Baked by Ann. Joanna’s dad poked fun at the groom’s football team choice, which was jolly good fun indeed. Then, both Michael’s brother’s speeches, finishing off with the groom’s speech.

The rain stopped, so I got a bit of drone footage that I thought I could hopefully incorporate into the highlights film. There were a few more people outside now as the staff was clearing tables.

The dance floor was in a different position when I was here last, as the hotel built a new private bar at the back of the function room, so the dance floor was in the middle of the room with the band off to the side. The Engagements wedding band called the bride and groom in for the first dance. Everyone joined in, too, which was great to see along with the guests. Have a great future together, Joanna and Michael and thanks for booking me as your wedding videographer.

Lusty Beg Wedding

Previously, I have been before. I started at the family home in Letterkenny before I made my way to Kim and Charlie’s Lusty Beg wedding. Play the below.

I was booked for the couple’s wedding, but the first stop was the family home I shot footage around the outside of the house with the Mavic Mini drone, as well as some quick shots around the house before some footage of the make-up. Later on in the morning, a lovely wedding breakfast was put on, so the parents asked me if I wanted something. The camera was on hold for a second, and I grabbed some grub, too, lol. I could only stay for a bit before I made my way to the hotel as it takes me about 45 minutes to set up and about 1 hour 15 minutes to drive to the location.

Reception in Lusty Beg Island

Charlie and the lads were already there, so I grabbed some Groom Prep. Soon afterwards, the guests arrived at the Ceremony. I attached my small portable audio recorders of the humanist celebrant John Foley and the groom. You couldn't ask for better weather, but the proceedings were slightly behind schedule because people wanted to cross to get to the hotel. Kim and her parents arrived. The music commenced, and soon after, Kim arrived with her dad. The ceremony was great fun, telling the story of how they met with an ideal backdrop. You can view the ceremony from a bird’s eye view by playing the video below.

After the ceremony, we made our way around to Lusty Beg, as well as getting some behind-the-scenes footage and shots. Everyone was called in for speeches, and Kim and Charlie made their grand entrance to a standing ovation from guests, making for a great start to the evening at the resort. The speeches started with Kim’s dad, Charlie and the best man and ranged from fun to emotional.

A bit later in the evening, Kim and Charlie’s first dance started with the live band Atmosphere Wedding Band playing some class music, with the bridal party and families joining in afterwards, which was great to see. I must say I love weddings and this is one of the best. Have a great future together, Kim and Charlie.

Lusty Beg Wedding Packages

My Lusty Beg wedding packages for video are half-day and full-day, which is the best package, and both include a USB with a keepsake box. Lusty Beg is such a beautiful place I’d recommend a full day.

  • Full day from bridal preparations up to the second dance

Less than my minimum Lusty beg wedding package is not worth it as you are missing out on so much at the beginning or the end of the day. If you want less, though, contact me with more info. This will be about £100 less than my minimum package.
