The beautiful bride wore a Galia Lahav wedding dress, Almaz. “I knew it was the one,” she shares. “I’d seen it first back in 2018 and saved it on my phone, where it stayed for years. There were no Galia Lahav boutiques in the UK at the time, then as if it was meant to be, the first flagship store opened in London, just in time for me to begin my dress journey!” Sarah completed her look with her mother’s diamond earrings, which she wore on her wedding day. She also wore a floral lace edged veil, embroidered with the words, “With you always, Dad.” Having sadly lost him 10 months previous, this was placed on the left side where his arm would be had he walked her down the aisle. Andrew wore an impeccably tailored bespoke three-piece suit from Zebel London in a sandy hue. Every detail was thoughtfully chosen, including the lining designed just for him. The couple kept their guests entertained with a mix of thoughtful experiences and indulgent treats. From unlimited drinks at the open bar to delicious canapés and evening food, there was never a dull (or hungry) moment. Indeed, the food throughout the weekend was a huge highlight. “Guests were still talking about it long after the celebrations ended,” Sarah tells us. Sarah and Andrew also hired a live painter to create a piece with guests invited to add their own personal touches. Live guest illustrations were a further highlight proving a hit with everyone. During the celebrations, loved ones also enjoyed a Dutch pancake cart alongside a fun photo booth that kept everyone smiling well into the evening. REAL WEDDINGS 21
