Taking to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, Brianne shared a stunning photo of the interior of one of the venues they have their eyes on. While she didn't disclose the exact location, the couple has confirmed to HELLO! that the wedding will take place in Ireland, preferably County Mayo on the west coast where Kevin's late father was born. Their potential venue features a grand table covered in beautiful white linen, high ceilings and ornate walls with beautiful drapes that let in plenty of natural light. Captioning the image, the Canadian skater wrote: "And so it begins… Wedding venues."
