I'd hazard 1940s from the fashion, and the cool dude up the back with a zipper jacket.

Same location
Bride was also from Ballyhale, Co. Kilkenny, so where’s the backdrop?
Morton could be grooms name, possibly -

The very next shot in the Poole catalogue is the one below from 1952, Which would explain why I don't see today's in the online marriage records

Paging back in the catalogue, the first dated one I find is also 1952:

The later-in-the-catalogue one is Sept 1952, the before one unknown 1952. -

I don't have newspaper access, but Tuesday September 23, 1952 WEDDING BELLS in the Irish Independent might be interesting Hmm, maybe not. At least one Morton mentioned, but looks like a Connor/St. John wedding.
Taken at Tycor? Seems so...

Niall McAuley Perfect, thanks! Wonder if it was a biggish house that's not showing on the OSI.

There doesn't appear to have been much in Tycor (or Ticor as it was spelt on the OSI maps back then) when this photo was taken. The nearest big house would probably have been the Manor of St. John in Lisduggan. This is Tycor on the 25" OSI map maps.osi.ie/publicviewer/#V1,658965,611881,6,9

There does not appear to have been any Powers living in Tycor around this time, I wonder if this was taken at Mrs Powers parents house, if so it might possibly have been at the home of Walter and Ellen Hearne. Walter was a caretaker at the waterworks in Tycor and was 72 in 1911. The house in the photo looks more like a small cottage and the kind of place a caretaker might live, bit of a wild guess I know:) 1911 Census for Walter Hearne www.census.nationalarchives.ie/reels/nai003503919/

Here's what you get if you type Tycor house Waterford into google. That house is not on the 25" map, surveyed June 1905.
