Your South Wales Wedding - January/Feburary 2023 (Issue 89)

Seeing all our loved ones in one room, with people coming from so many different places, was amazing. It was lovely to see them all joined together and left us with an immense feeling of how incredibly loved we are by our families and friends. We are so grateful to them. The bridesmaids opted for luxury champagne multiway formal dresses from Jacqueline Louise Bridal Ltd. They wore them in the style of a halter dress, with the back straps intertwined beautifully to suit everyone’s personalities. Callan chose a burgundy velvet dinner jacket, white tuxedo dress shirt, black bow tie, black trousers and Valentino patent leather shoes from Hawkes Bespoke Outfitters. He took great pride in choosing the details for the day. He stood out with his burgundy velvet dinner jacket, as the groomsmen were dressed in traditional tuxedos from Slater Menswear. We planned our entire wedding all the way from the USA! It made me realize how important wedding suppliers are and the relationships you have with them. I wore an ivory-draped strapless bridal gown called Esmee from House of CB. I chose this dress as it was fitted, elegant and classy. It was made of smooth satin that draped around the fully-corseted bodice, with a beautifully draped skirt that fell away to a sweep train for an added statement. I accessorised with square-toed sandals, a cathedral-length veil, a statement necklace and matching bracelet, my aunt’s diamond earrings and grandmother’s wedding ring. 37 REAL WEDDINGS
