WATCH: Donegal wedding hosts “flashmob” with a difference

Daniel O’Donnell and friends surprise his niece

It was a wedding with a unique difference in Kincasslagh at the weekend when a host of stars from the Irish music scene joined in with a special 'flashmob' of a classic hymn for the happy couple.

As newly weds Patricia Doogan and Neil Swan were tying the knot before a host of family and friends, Patricia's uncle, Daniel O’Donnell, along with a host of other singers including Majella O’Donnell, Shawn Cuddy, Tony Allen and Derek Ryan took part in a surprise 'flashmob' that brought the bride to tears.

Midway through the ceremony being conducted by Fr Pat Ward, different members of the congregation arose to join in with a spectacular rendition of “How Great Thou Art”.

Patricia has worked with her uncle Daniel for many years and has many friends in the show business industry.
