CONGRATULATIONS to event rider, young horse producer and auctioneer and valuer John Bannon and his new wife Sarah Hanna, who were married last Friday, September 3rd at St John’s Church in Donegore, Co Antrim.

Following the ceremony, Sarah’s parents, Paul and Barbara Hanna of Rockvale Stud, put on a fantastic reception at Magheramorne Estate, which is run by the Allen family, friends of Sarah’s, where the happy couple were joined by family and friends, many of who are members of the hunting, eventing and racing communities.

The maid of honour was Lucy Hanna, while best man Richard Irwin made a fantastic speech.

The couple report that Magheramorne was a stunning venue and the Allen family’s hospitality was exceptional throughout. Sarah, who works for Amazon, has moved to Co Meath to join John and the pair will hunt together next season with the Ward Unions.

Pony Tales wish John and Sarah the very best in their married life.
