THEY ARE Geraldine Long and Alan Selter?THEY MET Ten years ago, across a crowded, eh, pub HE PROPOSED On the morning of her 30^th birthday, with his grandmother’s engagement ring THEY MARRIED In Dromquinna Manor, Kenmare, with an event they they describe as ?rustic, with a touch of glamour? THEY DIYed ?Anything we could do, we did do. That meant doing our own stationary, some of the flowers and even my headpiece.? THEY LOVED The pergola they wed beneath. Alan and Ger built it themselves, using materials from his grandmother’s garden, ?It wasn’t the most extravagant pergola you’ll ever see, but it’s sweet, it’s dreamy, and it’s just another sign of what we can do together.?
