Your Berks, Bucks and Oxon Wedding - December/January 2023/2024 (Issue 104)

We both felt elated and so special on the day, we were surrounded by so much love! We hired a band to perform during the afternoon and in the evening, we had a different live band called the Outliers. James and I are in a band so it was great to have our friends playing at our reception! We had a spontaneous dance-off and Killing In The Name by Rage Against the Machine was the last song which I requested! Four friends joined in our choreographed first dance with us! We also entertained our guests at the reception with a photo booth and a sweetie stand.

James wore a dark blue suit teamed with a white and pink tie and a white waistcoat – he tied in with our colour theme so well. The male bridal party all wore blue suits and pink ties. Top tip: “Don’t leave the cake decoration until the last minute! Also, ask your groomsmen for help during the day, ours were fantastic!” - Hannah and James 42
