Your Herts & Beds Wedding - Feb/Mar 2020 (Issue 78)

REAL WEDDINGS 45  TIME TO CELEBRATE To keep guests entertained, a master of ceremony was hired who happened to be their dear friend and a fabulous entertainer with a great style and humour. On top of that, they had a four-piece string quartet during the drinks reception, which friends and families loved! Oliver says, “We had a professional DJ Tony Lawrence, saxophonist Wendy Allen and percussionist William, and not forgetting the amazing firework display carried out by Pains Fireworks.” Each entertainer interacted with attendees and made the whole experience extra fun and memorable. MEMORABLE MOMENTS Throughout the day the couple felt emotional, excited and happy to be surrounded by their loved ones. Oliver comments on a moment that stood out saying: “The bride- angels walked down the stairs one by one, leaving my bride-to-be, which made me fill up with excitement as she looked so stunning in her wedding dress." Daniella also comments on her favourite part saying: “To walk down the long steps after being so lovingly prepared by my gorgeous stepdaughters and see my future husband beaming at me was so special and emotional.” When it came to speeches, the best man, who’s also their nephew, shared beautiful words full of love and emotion, which got everyone up on their feet for a standing ovation. According to the couple every supplier went above and beyond to ensure the day was perfect. Oliver says: “It feels like we have extended our family and friends, they’re no longer just suppliers!" HONEYMOON For Oliver and Daniella’s honeymoon, the pair jetted off to Iceland for five days with their friends who lived in Australia. The trip was packed full of beautiful moments and they were lucky enough to see the northern lights! TOP TIP The couple shares their top tip, saying: “Always make decisions together and spend your money on what you feel is most beneficial in the long run, for us this was the photographer and videographer to capture the whole day. It’s difficult to see everything going on around us and this captured any moments missed”.
