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

groomsmen wore patent black shoes, and Lloyd chose designer Christian Louboutin shoes. “The bridesmaids opted for champagne-coloured halter neck dresses from Yasmin Rose Bridal,” continues Heidi. “The style and open back complemented their figures, and my maid-of-honour stood out by wearing a gold sequined gown.” TIME TO CELEBRATE “We booked James, an outstanding solo artist from the band Trilogy, to entertain our guests during the drinks reception,” shares the bride. “We then had the rest of the Trilogy band perform in the evening. They had our guests up on their feet and entertained all night long and provided DJ coverage and a disco during the breaks. We also had a photo booth from Ultra Booth, which captured our guests enjoying themselves.” MEMORABLE MOMENTS “Our day was magical and out of this world,” recalls Heidi. “It could not have been any better, and we felt like we were in a dream. It was the best day of our lives. We felt overwhelmed with just how perfect the day was and so proud that our plan came together. “Every supplier we used went above and beyond and provided more than we ever imagined they would,” adds Heidi. “From the venue décor and flowers to the cake, photographer, and videographer, everything was perfect! The speeches were also memorable, and we were so grateful to be able to share our amazing day with those closest to us.” HONEYMOON Heidi and Lloyd went to Bali and Dubai for their honeymoon. “It was outstanding,” explains the bride. “We went for three weeks and easily could have stayed for another three. We had planned our honeymoon for the year before but had to postpose because of the pandemic. Lisa Lockhart from Travel Counsellors planned it for us and incorporated everything we asked for. The honeymoon was a trip of a lifetime and will always be the most special holiday we have ever been on.” 43 REAL WEDDINGS
