Lauren wore a crepe column sheath dress featuring side cut-outs, a low back, and a lace train. “I wore a cathedral-length veil and some of my mum’s jewellery, and I carried a photograph of her in my bridal bouquet,” she says. “Dave wore a navy tweed three-piece, slim-fit suit teamed with a tie and white shirt, and our groomsmen wore the same along with brown brogues, personalised cufflinks, and tie clips.” The couple purchased their pageboy suits from H&M, and their bridesmaids wore powder blue dresses in different styles.” Guests were entertained by the magician Graham Prigg performing close-up tricks. “Everybody loved him, and it was a great way for our loved ones who did not know each other to mingle,” Lauren tells us. “Our five-year-old nephew became the magician’s sidekick! We also had a DJ during the day and evening who kept everybody dancing until the early hours of the morning. The Cove Club Wedding & Party Band performed our first dance which was The One by Kodaline.” “We received a wonderful surprise gift on our wedding day, a wooden plaque suspended above our top table featuring our names, wedding date, a map of Lake Como and family keepsakes.” - Lauren and Dave REAL WEDDINGS 31
