Your Yorkshire Wedding - November/December 2025 (Issue 75)

The bride wore Stella York style 7711. She’d taken a photo of the dress to her boutique appointment and squealed with joy when she discovered they stocked it. “After seeing the bow and buttons down the train, I knew I’d found the one,” Bethany remembers. “It felt like me: classic and timeless but with wow factor.” Steve’s two-piece suit was made for him in moss green to complement the summer vibe. “He was comfortable and looked stylish,” Bethany remembers. Not being afraid of something a little different, he opted for burgundy lining printed with cheetahs. Bethany arranged for cockapoo Winnie to act as ring bearer as a surprise for Steve. “He couldn’t believe his eyes when his best man walked down the aisle with her after convincingly pretending that he’d forgotten the rings!” Bethany says. The couple wanted their wedding food to be undeniably tasty and easy to enjoy. So, they kept it simple with pork pies from their local shop and served with packets of crisps. Then, Bastard’s Bistro in Leeds cooked pork belly, roast potatoes and seasonal greens followed by a choice of classic desserts. Although not a wedding caterer the team agreed to do the couple a favour. In the evening, guests were served a taco and nacho buffet to keep everyone fuelled for the party. Guests loved making the most of the huge selfie mirror decorated with signage while enjoying a drink in the courtyard. Later in the evening, the ice luge went down a treat with some hilarious moments. The speeches too provided their own entertainment as the bride’s sister performed a rap in the newlyweds’ honour roasting them both in the process! REAL WEDDINGS 29
