Your Yorkshire Wedding - January/February 2022 (Issue 52)

I wanted to keep my accessories fairly simple, so chose a Linzi Jay cathedral length veil (also from Emily Bridalwear) with matching floral lace. My earrings and hair slide had flowers that matched the floral lace too – they were from Jon Richard and Wed2Be, respectively. I loved seeing all our family and friends together after so long apart! I also loved how intimate and beautiful our ceremony area was, and how we got to enjoy the stunning gardens whilst getting married. It really was perfect. The best man, Lee McCall, arranged for shots to be brought in during the speeches and we had a game of ‘Never Have I Ever’. This was a complete surprise to everyone and really got all the guests laughing. Jack wore a black tuxedo with a fitted waistcoat, a House of Cavani suit from Yorkshire Menswear, Leeds and the groomsmen wore the same but without a waistcoat. Serenade String Quartet played during our ceremony and drinks reception – there wasn’t a dry eye in the house when they started playing! We decided to have classical music for our ceremony to keep with the classic and timeless theme, but during our drinks reception, the quartet played a mix of pop and rock songs which our guests really enjoyed. On the day, I think Jack was more nervous than me! I was quite calm – all the planning I had done for the previous two years had all come together and I was just excited to see everything and meet our suppliers in person! 37 REAL WEDDINGS
