Caoimhe Doyle, who started the Covid Bride Tribe account, and fiancé Stuart with spaniel Lola "Being a teacher, I am of course always very organised and, after being with your partner for ten years I would say after year five you couldn't have gone for an ice cream without expecting a ring to be produced!" she said. "We had discussed getting married and our ring sizes and so on in February last year with a local jeweller, but the week we went to pick up our rings, Covid hit, and everything shut down." Caoimhe said that planning her wedding in the middle of lockdown was a welcome distraction which she felt helped to keep her spirits high.
