The bride-to-be has been sharing photos of the sun-blissed session on the boat out at sea where she appears all in white and held aloft by a burly sailor.
Declaring it to be her “last rodeo”, Kristin has made sure she’s enjoying her last getaway as a free woman before preparing to walk down the aisle in the coming weeks.
In earlier pictures the girls, including fellow GAA wife Orla Lorenza, are seen hanging at the airport with Kirstin embracing the bridal look in a head-to-toe white ensemble.
Another picture shows her on a rooftop taking in views over the city.
Mayo footballer Aidan popped the question at Ashford Castle in July which was followed by an ‘engagement moon’ in stunning Santorini in Greece.
As they attended a party with friends, Kristin wrote ‘Engagement party 2.0’, alongside further shots showed her posing in the arms of her best pals while wearing a stylish silver dress.
“The bestest (sic) friends a girl could ask for”, she captioned the sweet snap.
The pair certainly enjoyed their time in the Aegean Sea resort, with many images showing the couple looking out from the cliff tops over the stunning scenery.
Aidan also took to Instagram himself to speak about their happiness as well as thanking those who helped him pull off the proposal in the iconic Mayo venue.
He said: “Great weekend in @ashfordcastle and then ‘The Kingdom’ after this special lady said ‘Yes’. @kristin_mckenzie_vass. Great to celebrate amongst friends and family!
“Thanks to @ashfordcastle for their help in making it happen! Shout out to Niall, Robert and Charlotte. Thanks to @kathy_lyons_photography for hiding out in the trees and capturing the moment!
“Thanks to Enda and Adrian @the_tankard for having us celebrate and dance the night away!” Aidan wrote.
Speaking to RSVP Live, Aidan revealed: “We met in Dublin a couple of years ago and stayed in touch. She went to London to work as a nurse, there was a bit of back and forth and then she came back to Dublin to go to college here so we’ve been together for a couple of years now.
“Kristin is the lead nurse at the Harley Medical Group, which provides cosmetic surgery, laser and skin treatments. She’s also a model, and represented by Upfront Model Agency.
“When she met me first she was a big Kerry fan, so we’ve slowly changed her! She definitely supports Mayo at the moment,” he said.
When he is not playing GAA, Aidan assumes the role of a Senior Planning Manager at Allergan, a pharmaceutical company situated in Westport.
