There is absolutely nothing that I would change about our wedding day. I wanted to make my entrance the most iconic version people had ever seen! I walked down the aisle to the Apocalyptica version of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica, a song special to us in many ways. I prepped my bridal party to walk down at particular moments, leaving a long gap to build up some tension before my arrival. The staff then closed the curtain at the back of the theatre, and when my moment arrived, the whole room gasped. It was unforgettable. I looked up to see Craig standing on the stage, full of tears, as I walked down the aisle, beaming, with both of my parents by my side. Craig y Nos Castle really did go above and beyond for us. From start to finish, the staff made the place so special. Our family, bridal party and friends also went all out to make it a day to remember, and for that, we are eternally grateful. Straight after the wedding, we went on our minimoon to Romania, visiting Bucharest and Transylvania, which was perfect in the spooky season. It had been on our lists for a while, and as we only had a few days, it was an ideal minimoon location. We are currently planning many more trips (any excuse) as travel is our main passion, so we plan to honeymoon forever! www.phiniximages.com 44
