Rory marries Erica in ‘do of the year’
GOLF superstar Rory McIlroy tied the knot with sweetheart Erica Stoll in the west of Ireland yesterday.
The lavish ceremony in the 13th Century Ashford Castle was billed as Ireland’s wedding of the year, with the rumour mill in overdrive about who would be flying in for the celebrations.
The exclusive estate, in the village of Cong in Co. Mayo, is no stranger to stars from as far back as the 1950s when it was the setting for screen classic The Quiet Man, starring John Wayne and Maureen O’Hara.
The castle, with its 350 acres, nine-hole golf course, horse riding, falconry, fishing and clay pigeon shooting, can be rented for about £83,000 a day.
It has been on lockdown since Thursday.
