Lisdoonvarna matchmaker Willie Daly’s top chat-up line: ‘Will you marry me’

After 50 years of playing Cupid and matching more than 3,000 couples, Willie Daly, Ireland’s only traditional matchmaker, has what he believes to be the most powerful chat-up line, writes
“Don’t be afraid to go over and ask them, ‘Will you marry me?’ These are the words that are very sought after,” explains Willie, who has again taken up office in the Matchmaker Bar, where he will remain for the next five weeks, for the Lisdoonvarna Matchmaking Festival.
