Your Cheshire and Merseyside Wedding - September/October 2022 (Issue 65)

Our wedding favours were jam jars filled with mix ed chocolates, personalised name cookies and place names made from acrylic that gu ests could take home and keep. The bridesmaids wore A-line dresses in navy with a silk bottom and lace top, with button detail down the back to complement mine. The Friendly Paper Company designed the table plan and I put it in a copper frame, which I decorated with fairylights, and placed floating candles and rose petals around it. Samuel and his groomsmen wore tailored three-pie ce suits in navy tweed, accompanied by gold dickie bows and brown brog ues. We had a lot of performers as we were due to get married when the pandemic hit, so this gave us more time to think about what we really wanted to ensure a memorable party after spending so much time apar t from our friends and family. To start the day we had an electric violinist. She perfo rmed as I walked down the aisle and during the wedding breakfast. My gown was by Essense of Australia. I was captivated by the detail on the train and the neckline was beautiful. I also wore a bespoke overskirt, made to match the detail on the dress and complete the look. My groom gifted me a Rolex the morning of the wedding, which I wore all day and my bridesmaids bought me a Swarovski bracelet as my something blue. 52
