Craic 'n' Commitment: Northern Ireland Weddings Unscripted

Love Across the Divide: The Wedding Journey of Alex and Marie


Listen Later

Welcome to Episode 3 of Craic n Commitment. In this episode we bring you the story of Alex and Marie, who got married way back in 1988, proving that love truly knows no boundaries – especially in Northern Ireland. Alex, a Protestant, and Marie, a Catholic, managed to make it work across the divide, navigating a relationship in the heart of the Troubles.


With plenty of laughs, a few Northern Irish slang words thrown in (hope you can catch them!), and a good bit of craic, they share how they defied expectations and built a life together. It’s a tale that could only happen in Northern Ireland – full of heart, humor, and a love story that transcended the times.
