Rob proposed to Mari in Greece during their first overseas holiday together. He researched the perfect spot to pop the question and thought he’d found a hidden gem of a beach. However, it turned out to be the busiest they’d ever been on! Rob persevered and eventually they found a quiet little grove with a sea view. He got down on one knee, but Mari had said “yes” before he even hit the ground! Mari grew up in Worthing, so the couple wanted to keep their wedding celebrations local, supporting as many Sussex suppliers as possible. With a Burton marrying a Taylor, a classic Hollywood theme was very much in order and The Dome Cinema called out to them. Mari opted for a 1940s-style dress, which she paired with sparkly Irregular Choice shoes, inspired by the iconic movie star look. The dress was the first she tried on as her mum had sent her a photo of it way before she even started looking. “It was so glam and stunning,” Mari shares. “With sparkles covering it, I knew it was the one for me!” Rob wore a purple suit with waistcoat and silver pocket watch Mari bought for him as an engagement gift. 24
