Your Yorkshire Wedding - January/February 2023 (Issue 58)

The night before the wedding, Storm Eunice hit! It knocked down a tree onto a house and there was a power cut to the whole venue. We were due to have a p arty (which we continued to have) but it was all don e in candlelight, which looking back now was very sp ecial, at the time we were a bit panicky! Elliot remembers, “Whilst waiting for the bride t o enter (and Sophie was speaking to the registrar) the heavens opened an d it started snowing. The flakes of snow were massive and it was the most beautiful sight, so we really did have a white wedding! Sophie is known to love snow, so it made it all the more special.” Prior to, during the ceremony and for the drinks reception, guests were entertained by Champagne Strings, the string quartet that Sophie is usually a part of (although someone else stepped in for Sophie on the day!). My dress was accessorised with the most beautiful floor length veil with sparkles which glistened in the lighting at the venue. We still say now that we’ve never felt so loved as we did in the lead up to and on that day. We were overwhelmed by this a nd wish we could do it all over again. The cake topper was handmade by Sophie. 31 REAL WEDDINGS
