Cork couple to make history at City Hall

A COUPLE who couldn’t afford to marry are set to make history as the first bride and groom to wed at Cork City Hall tomorrow.

Ann Marie Collins and Eric Meehan, from Churchfield, Cork, scooped the €10,000 dream wedding package prize after entering Cork City Council’s Win your Wedding competition.

The couple were putting the final touches to their dream wedding ceremony yesterday with the event now just hours away. The pair have been together for six years and are “over the moon” with their unexpected win.
