Here comes the bride !
















A hearty Wexford congratulations goes out to Helena Dix who recently got married. Unfortunately we do not have any pictures of Helena's big day to show you, so we have to improvise. Above we see Helena with Lucia Cirillo, (who is in the wedding dress), during the wedding scene from the Opera Award winning 2013 festival production of Cristina, regina di Svezia by Foroni. We would like to extend our best wishes to Helena and her husband !
 
I am sure most of you know that  "Here comes the bride", is the bridal chorus from Wagner's Lohengrin.  Helena, who won the Wagner Society’s 2012 Bursary Competition, may have been tempted to sing along with it on her big day, in preparation for her upcoming appearance in August at the final of the International Wagner Competition in Seattle. A very busy few weeks indeed for Helena, and we wish her every success in the competition.
