Throughout our planning, we made choices based on what we genuinely loved rather than what was traditionally expected. Whether it was swapping champagne for our favourite sparkling wine, choosing statement festoon lighting instead of classic fairylights, surprising our guests with giant cut-outs of our cats during the first dance, or booking a harpist because we loved the sound - every decision reflected us as a couple. Trends come and go, but creating a day that feels authentic to you will make it so much more memorable. If something makes you smile, go for it; your wedding should tell your story, not someone else’s!” - Maddie and Dan 28
