 By Kim O'Leary

While many of us may have been glued to the television screens watching the hotly anticipated Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and U.S. television/movie star Meghan Markle at the weekend, Irish blogging royalty Rosie Connolly was having her own happily-ever-after in Maynooth following a lavish wedding ceremony.

Irish blogger Rosie Connolly is now officially off the market after tying the knot with her fiancé Paul Quinn at the stunning Carton House in Maynooth, and the bride looked very stylish in her gorgeous dress with new husband Paul as the guests enjoyed the summer weather.

Rosie celebrated her big day with guests including some well-known Irish faces and close friends including James Patrice, and bloggers, Louise Cooney, Lisa Jordan (Just Jordan) and Lauren Arthurs (Love Lauren).

Meanwhile, Rosie's stunning dress stole the show, as she opted for a full veil (just like Meghan!) and a generous bouquet of flowers with plenty of greenery for the special day.

The groom Paul looked dapper in a navy tux with black detail and  it appears that the day went without a hitch for the happy couple with Rosie admitting on Friday via social media that the "nerves had settled" and she was ready to marry her "best friend."

Rosie teamed up with VIP magazine for the Big Day and she will be giving fans a sneak peek into her wedding via a forthcoming edition of the glossy magazine.
