I’m pretty sure there were plenty of tears of laughter! In the evening we had two casino tables with croupiers to entertain guests before the live music and dancing started. In the evening, our friends’ band played live music, which was a particular highlight of the day for me. The venue and waiting staff really went the extra mile to make our day special. Nothing was too much trouble and they accommodated every single one of our requests. Plus, our photographer, Dominika, did an absolutely amazing job with our photos. We love every single one. We might have gone a bit over the top with our honeymoons! We took a mini-moon in Devon a few days after the wedding, but for the main event we couldn’t agree on where to go. Joe wanted to take a week’s snowboarding holiday, I wanted a week in the Maldives. So, we did both! My good friend Suzanne at Designer Travel arranged both for us and she didn’t disappoint. 42
