Our Story
JUNE 2022 - IZZY’S RESTAURANT
Pippa was enjoying the Wedding Day 2 celebrations of her childhood friend Georgina (who’s family also happen to be the McParland’s neighbours in Dublin), when Andrew who was lunching nearby decided to join in the festivities…
AUGUST 2022 - HOLIDAY TO ITALY
Pippa wooed Andrew with the temptation of joining her on a business trip to Italy! It wasn’t all work and no play; from Rome’s culinary delights to rural Tuscan adventures they really did enjoy the Dolce Vita!
JANUARY 2023 - THAILAND & SRI LANKA
Putting Andrew’s vagabond tattoo to the test and Pippa’s resistance to settle down. This travel thirsty duo decided to pack their bags and fill the memory bank.
SEPTEMBER 2023 - IRELAND VS SOUTH AFRICA WORLD CUP
If there is one thing this couple love more than each other - it’s rugby! So of course the only answer to the 2023 world cup was yes!
MARCH 2024 - MOVING TO LISBON!
Nothing like moving in together to test a relationship, but with a large supply of Portuguese vinho, pastel de natas and vitamin D - the gamble was worth the reward.
PROPOSAL NUMBER 1!
PROPOSAL NUMBER 2!
We can travel the world but there is nothing quite like the paradise on our doorstep. The O’Keefe’s are no strangers to a boat trip or two and their summers wouldn’t be complete without cruising the Algarve’s beautiful Ria Formosa. (buff bros optional)
NOVEMBER 2024 - MCPARLAND FAMILY TRIP TO MOROCCO
2024 was a year filled with special moments, notably the celebration of Andrew's parents, Margo and Peter, who marked their 40th wedding anniversary. To commemorate this significant milestone, they ventured to Marrakech, bringing the whole family along to share in the belly dancing, aqua aerobics and barber specials.
