If you’re dreaming of a wedding that combines elegance, tradition, and a lot of fun then Lindsay & Andrew’s Powerscourt House Wedding is undoubtedly a must-see! Their celebration transcended borders, bringing together guests from different corners of the globe to witness the union of two souls deeply in love. It captured hearts all over the world after being featured on Destination I do.

The couples’ priority was to give their guests a unique experience in a foreign country and Ireland was the perfect halfway point for their families, with Andrew’s family coming from Russia and Lindsay’s from California.

This beautiful wedding is infused with style, gorgeous details, and heartfelt touches.

Wedding Ceremony In The Gardens

From the moment guests arrived, it was evident that this wedding would be a celebration to remember. The majestic backdrop of Powerscourt House set the stage for an elegant affair. With an Old-world feel and romantic vibes, Powerscourt was voted one of National Geographic’s “Most Beautiful Gardens in the World”. The Bamberg Gates were the chosen backdrop for Lindsay & Andrew’s ‘I dos’.

So they could have an extra personal ceremony so the couple chose a dear friend to officiate it. They also blended American and Irish traditions, with bridesmaids and groomsmen standing by their sides as well as the handfasting ceremony, deeply steeped in Irish history. Surprising all their guests, the groom’s 20-year-old brother acted as their flower boy and stole the show with his entrance! Lindsay & Andrew also crafted their own wedding vows, leaving guests with tears in their eyes.

One of the most memorable aspects of their wedding for us was Lindsay’s two stunning wedding dresses. The one worn at the ceremony held special significance, as it has been passed down through generations – from her grandmother to her mother to her sister and then to Lindsay – a beautiful nod to their family heritage and enduring love. It added an extra layer of sentiment to an already magical day.

Al Fresco Drinks Reception and Dancing

After the ceremony the couple and their guests enjoyed the drinks reception in the garden while the string quartet played. Guests were invited to try the couple’s signature cocktail called ‘The Winston’ named after their pup. The display photo is the cutest!

Although this was a black tie wedding, don’t let the formal attire fool you; this couple and their guests know how to have fun. With their love of partying and vodka, the newlyweds ensured that the dance floor was never empty and the glasses were always full. From classic tunes to energetic beats and even a live saxophonist, the night was filled with laughter and countless memories that will be cherished for years to come.
