As if our whole week at the castle wasn't memorable enough, Friday night proved to be the sort of magical evening that will live on in family lore through the generations. Every detail was lovingly arranged - thanks Grandma! - and it all came together seamlessly, with the sort of "pinch me, I'm dreaming!" moments that make you wonder if you're just in a tourism ad or a calendar shoot, but no, it was actual magic happening. The Leddy-Donovan-O'Donovan-Fitzgeralds started to roll in around 7 PM and by dinnertime, the party was at least 80 guests strong. Adare Farms put on a scrumptious pig roast and a delicious ice cream cart for dessert. Cousins of all ages tore around the castle, discovering every nook and cranny with shrieks of delight, riding bikes, going for carriage rides, and showering Patch with love.
