The following post had the simple message of, “Just Married,” with a picture of the happy couple sharing a kiss on the steps of King John’s Castle.

The proud Limerick couple were happy to have the Treaty City as the setting for their wedding day, Sinead writing, “Our beautiful hometown of Limerick provided the perfect backdrop for our wedding gallery, the biggest thank you to Barbara Meany for the most beautiful ceremony. It was just so special.”

Sinead’s followers were treated to some beautiful moments between the newlyweds with one set of images thanking Katie Daly’s Pub, saying the “Guinness was scrumptious” as the two shared some celebratory pints at the heritage pub on Castle Street on King’s Island.

The couple, who got engaged in October 2023 when Fitzgerald proposed during an Andrea Bocelli concert in Germany, welcomed their first child, Jacob, in June 2022.

The couple’s Portuguese wedding promises to be the true celebration of their love, with the September 25 ceremony marking the start of their new chapter as husband and wife.
