Our American guests loved the British touch! My dad, mother, and I arrived at the church in a Rolls Royce Ghost and Kurt and I then travelled in the Rolls Royce to our photo spots across London! We had the singer, Leon Garner and his five-piece jazz band perform during the wedding drinks and dinner and All The Feels Collective then kicked off the party with their saxophonist, electric violinist and DJ. It was absolutely unbelievable. Kurt and I love the food markets that run throughout Europe, so that inspired our catering. We had food stations that guests could help themselves to including Thai, Italian, burgers, steak and late night pizza. Seeing all of our American family and friends who made such efforts to be in London on our special day, taking so many covid precautions, made things so special for us. It was surreal. Kurt’s grandfather, his best man, gave such an emotional speech. It meant so much to him to have him there as well as speaking such beautiful words in front of our friends and family. Your wedding day flies by but take a second to stand with your partner and watch what’s going on around you. Take a mental picture of that moment to cherish forever. Be present and enjoy! 46
