Lismore Castle was the venue for a lavish society wedding at the weekend. The whole event was shrouded in secrecy with staff and caterers sworn to keep details private.

The castle’s media affairs spokesperson Maura O’Keeffe, declined to comment when asked by The Avondhu about the event. In any case we have discovered the wedding party on Saturday, was to celebrate the nuptials earlier in the week in Belgium, of New York based art collectors Charles Antoine Van Campenhout and Risteard Keating. Charles is from Belgium while Risteard, who is his early 30s, is a native of Donoughmore near Blarney.

A large marquee was erected in the castle grounds, there was a lavish fireworks display and reports circulating locally suggested a world-famous singer was there to perform, causing a frisson of excitement in the town.
