THEIR paths first crossed in O’Sullivan’s Pharmacy, Killarney, so it is not surprising Rebecca O’Sullivan and Robbie O’Connell made sure to stop by the New Street business after they exchanged wedding vows.

Rebecca, from Glenlough, Kilgarvan, and Robbie, from Carrigaline, Cork, were married in St Mary’s Cathedral, Killarney, and held their reception in the Europe Hotel & Resort, Fossa.

It was a case of love at first sight when the couple met in February 2010. “Robbie came into the shop with his friend Donald Dwyer,” said the bride. “I work with Donald’s mum Nuala Dwyer who is a pharmacist in O’Sullivan’s. Rob and Donald, who are both teachers, were on their mid-term break and had popped in to say hello to Nuala.”

The rest is history. On their wedding day, Rebecca and Robbie were delighted to pose for a picture with O’Sullivan’s Pharmacy owner Anthony O’Sullivan in a photo-shoot led by Denis Hyland. “We are now living in Douglas, Cork,” said Rebecca. “I commute to Killarney every day to work and Robbie is a primary school teacher in St Columba’s Boys National School in Douglas.”
