I felt bad that we were wasting the venue’s time in the middle of a pandemic, but little did I know, they were in on the surprise. We got shown to the ceremony room, had a look around, and Matt then took me to the end of the aisle and asked me to marry him.” Read on to see some of Carla’s favourite moments from their big day... 47 REAL WEDDINGS
