HILARY AND PADDY O'FARRELL SURPRISE 25TH ANNIVERSARY PARTY

Wednesday March 03 2010
WHAT WAS supposed to be a quiet drink in their local pub, turned into a jaw-dropping surprise for Wexford couple Hilary and Paddy O'Farrell last week
Paddy and Hilary, from Bernedette Place, had gone out to Springsteens with their three children, Ciara (22), Christopher (18) and Tara (14), to mark their 25th wedding anniversary.
They had no idea, however, that their daughter Ciara had organised a big family party in the Wicked Swan for afterwards.
'We had gone out to Springsteens for a meal. They had no idea that we had a party planned. It was a brilliant night,' said Ciara.
The surprise was even bigger when Ciara presented her mum and dad with cash to purchase a holiday to Australia.
'That was an extra special surprise,' she said this week.
