American skateboarder Tony Hawk wed his partner Kathy Goodman in Limerick’s Adare Manor yesterday surrounded by a small group of family and friends.

The American sports star tied the knot on the grounds of one of Ireland’s most luxurious venues this weekend.

“Tying the Celtic knot with my best friend,” Tony wrote as he shared a photo of the nuptials.

In the picture posted to Instagram Kathy is wearing a non-traditional lace black gown and is carrying a bouquet made of roses. The couple’s first kiss as man and wife is captured with Adare Manor in the background as well as a small gathering of black-tie wedding guests.

The groom matched his gothic bride by donning a tailored black suit, shirt and tie with a red rose pinned to his lapel.

The couple were accompanied by their children, including Tony’s sons Riley, Spencer, Keegan and daughter Kadence Clover.

The skateboarder divorced Lhotse Merriam, mother of Kadence, in 2008.

Tony shared a number of videos from the weekend of his children enjoying their time in the luxurious Limerick venue, including his son Riley handling a hawk named Harris.

Sticking to their roots the family even visited local Limerick skateboarding arena Raw Cycles for a few hours during their trip.

“Thanks @rawcycles for hosting our entire clan the other day. Hope we didn’t scuff anything up,” Tony wrote.

This weekend has been a busy one for high-profile wedding in Ireland. Cork Footballer Valerie Mulcahy wed her long-term girlfriend Meg Blyth in the Rebel County on Friday, while Irish chef Donal Skehan tied the knot on Saturday in Dublin.
