Wedding belle: Beaming Anna Geary ties the knot

- Aoife Walsh

RTÉ star Anna Geary has tied the knot with long-time partner Kevin Sexton.

The loved-up pair said ‘I do’ in front of friends and family during a gorgeous ceremony at St John The Baptist church in Killeagh, east Co Cork, followed by a reception at Castlemart­yr Resort yesterday.

The GAA legend (32) posted a stunning photo of the beaming newlyweds on her Instagram account.

She captioned the image: “The start of the best adventure yet. Mr & Mrs 11.10.19 #justmarrie­d”.

The Ireland’s ‘Fittest Family’ coach walked down the aisle in a fabulous gown designed by Paula King of Bridal by Tamem Michael.

Anna and Kevin were joined on the big day by her former teammates, who formed a guard of honour, as well as co-presenter on Ireland’s ‘Fittest Family’ Davy Fitzgerald, Mairead Ronan, athletes Rob and Marian Heffernan, and ‘Dancing With The Stars’ friend Maia Dunphy.

The couple were joined by family and friends on Thursday for a special meal to mark their last night before becoming Mr and Mrs.

“The Last Supper. The most amazing part of a wedding is family and friends coming together,” Anna captioned a picture she shared online.

Speaking ahead of the ceremony, Anna told the Irish Independen­t that the hardest part of wedding planning was cutting down the guestlist.

“I would say to any brides and grooms out there and kind of pre-warn them, the guest list is probably one of the most difficult things you will do,” she said. “It was for me. I have this incessant need to please people.”
