"The idea was spawned by the best man Luke about a month ago and Jimmy Whelan, the groom rang 10 of us to partake in the routine with him. Jimmy would be well known locally as a bit of a character so we thought it'd be a bit of craic for his wedding," he said.Neil had big praise for their teacher who put the whole thing together.
"We were put in touch with Becci Whelan in New Ross in the Cabin Arts Studio and she choreographed the whole thing and put up with us for the 3 weeks beforehand. "My role was the same as the rest of the lads, turn up for practice and try and nail it on the night. "There was plenty of poor performances in practice, I can tell you, but at about 11pm the night of the wedding we went out to a secluded car park, ran through the routine one more time and went straight in and did it after. "Jimmy's new wife Ella and her family loved it. It got a great reaction - thankfully."
