We booked a live band to perform during the evening and everybody loved them – we danced from 7 pm until midnight! Many of our guests asked for their details after our wedding. A saxophonist entertained our guests during cocktail hour – it really added a party vibe. Our adult bridesmaids wore long dresses while our adorable flowergirls wore ivory dresses with blue sashes.

I had two dresses. The first was an A-line style with a full skirt and long train and I had cap sleeves added to it. I chose this gown because it suited the venue and I teamed it with a long veil and simple jewellery. My second dress was a beautiful fitted style with intricate lace detail that I changed into for our first dance. We hired a magician to entertain our guests at the tables during the dessert who was a hit with our guests. 36
