Share Your Day with Those Abroad or Unable to Attend with
Our “Live Guest-Link”
The Westwood is proud to be able to introduce a genuine first in the Irish Wedding Market.
Most every wedding couple has a person or two missing from the guest list on their wedding
day who they would have liked to had share the happiness of the occasion – this is especially
prevalent in the current economic climate with many family & friends perhaps abroad or
unable to travel.
Now these friends and families can share in the special day. We will give every wedding booked
with us their own unique website and secure username and password. These details can then
be given to those guests unable to travel and they can log on to the website and view and hear
the wedding speeches live and as they happen.
This service is offered at no additional cost to the Bride & Groom
Your Wedding ........Your Way!
