The party went inside, and we danced the night away. Brian asked for a playlist and took requests. He took photos of the evening guests arriving and added them to a screen, which was a lovely touch. The most amazing part of the day was going down to Ogmore By Sea for some photos. After the reception, we rounded up the best man, picked up a beer each and off we went with Kate Richards Photography. The weather was incredible, the beach was so busy and there I was in my wedding dress with my husband! The best man helped Kate with the veil and took a little snooze while soaking up the sun. It was so lovely to have some time together. I was so excited to walk down the aisle to Tom. I remember our priest, Simon, asking if I was ready outside the church, and I turned and said ‘let’s do this’ and off we went! I had gone up to my room to freshen up, and after a little while, Tom came to look for me and walked into my sisterin-laws and I all sat in the bath in the bridal suite having a catch-up. We can’t thank our family and friends enough for making our day so perfect. Kate Richards Photography made us feel so relaxed in front of the camera. She remembered every little detail, reminded us about the little touches that we had put into the day and even helped me get into my dress! Elenor and Hannah from The Great House Hotel and Restaurant also went above and beyond. They made us feel so special. Nap time fell at the same time as the speeches, and Elenor took the pram and walked our youngest daughter around, so nobody missed out. They could not do enough for us, and we’ve never felt so special. 40
