To celebrate Ireland’s soccer success RSVP style, we’re taking a look back at some of our favourite Irish footballer’s weddings. The bride’s are stunning and the soccer stars scrub up pretty well themselves, when they’re out of those sweaty kits!

The stunning bride looked flawless in a figure-hugging fishtail dress layered with lace and sparkles. Wearing her dark hair in a down-do with soft curls and a gorgeous veil.
