earrings from PS With Love. “Even my wedding hair and makeup was taken care of,” continues the bride. “Jennie from Bridal Hair by Jennie transformed my locks into a cascade of curls, while Elaine from Elaine Marie Professional Makeup worked her magic on myself, my bridesmaids, my mum and Mark’s mum – and we were all so happy with how we looked.” The rest of the bridal party were also well-catered for, with the bridesmaids gifted their gorgeous multiway dresses from Lá Closet Dé Chánel. “I went with silver grey and paid extra for tulle overlay as I really loved the look,” says Natalie. “Next, there was Mark and his groomsmen to take care of – but I needn’t have worried. Mark was gifted a navy blue lounge suit with grey tweed waistcoat from Dapper Chaps. They also supplied three more suits for the groomsmen, but with grey ties to complement the bridesmaids’ dresses. Even our son Teddy wore a suit – and he couldn’t have looked more gorgeous!” LET’S PARTY! After the wedding breakfast it was time for Natalie, Mark and their guests to enjoy a party to remember. “The night was packed with even more suppliers who offered their services as part of our prize,” says the bride. “The DJ from Dreamwave Group listened to our suggestions so knew exactly what music we wanted to hear, and we were also lucky enough to have a pianist, Zoe Alexandria. She has a musical talent that’s second to none, and I’d recommend her to anyone! We also had a wonderful singer, Idreiss, who sang a great mix of songs. All of our guests commented on how great he was, and he even paired with pianist Zoe during the wedding breakfast.” It goes without saying that the whole day was perfectly captured by both the photographer and videographer. “Dan from D&A Photography was fantastic,” continues Natalie. “Mark and myself are both easy going, so let Dan guide us with his recommendations – and we couldn’t be happier with how the photos turned out! Our talented videographer, Carl from Six Eight Video, was great, too. After chatting to him on Zoom he gave us some ideas of what we could incorporate into our video. When we met him on the day it was like we’d known him for a long time – he made us feel extremely comfortable, which resulted in some really natural footage of the day.” 39 REAL WEDDINGS
