Morgan and Jacob met at college and started out as friends. “We always liked each other, but graduating and taking jobs took us away from one another,” Morgan explains. “But one day, the universe brought us back together and we've been inseparable ever since.”
Jacob proposed in July 2023. The couple hiked up to Lawn Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park and on reaching the top Jacob popped the question. They had a trip planned for the following month too, so Morgan suspected the proposal would come then, so to have it happen earlier made it a complete surprise for her.
The U.S. based pair visited Bolton Castle back in 2022 as tourists before they were engaged and fell in love with the setting of the Yorkshire Dales. Jacob was born in Yorkshire and was so excited to show Morgan around. So, when she said “yes” they remembered how beautiful the Castle was and were excited for their friends and family to see it. They decided on a glorious UK wedding in Jacob's home county and set the date for July 2024.

Charlie and Alice met on Hinge during lockdown and had their first date the day the pubs reopened. What a day that was! Charlie was attracted to Alice's sense of humour, smile and love of sport. Alice was attracted to Charlie's handsome smile and the fact he also happened to be a Chelsea FC fan. Post lockdown the pair moved to New York and worked and breathed city life there for 13 months. A Stateside wedding was out of the question, as the pair wanted to invite all of their nearest and dearest – which couldn't be attained the other side of the Atlantic. Alice Foster-Nagel married Charlie Nagel at Hedingham Castle on 7th September 2024.

Through the power of social media, Louise and Paul found each other. Louise remembers, “We both felt really comfortable in each other's company from day one. The proposal was a complete surprise as when I met him, he was very anti marriage due to his past experience.” Louise must have made quite the impression and on 7th August 2024, Louise and Paul became Mr and Mrs at The Compasses at Pattiswick.
We asked Rotherham boutique owner Paula from Wedding Vows for her favourite gown in store at the moment...
"I'd say our favourite gown at the moment is Kaoria by Veni Infantino for Ronald Joyce," she says. "It's a beautiful coloured floral design, available in full length or tea length, along with a matching full cathedral-length veil and an overskirt to turn it into an even bigger ball gown. It's just phenomenal. It's one of the best-selling designs of the last two seasons and we can see why. We've also had one of our suppliers create a matching headpiece with the pearls and crystals added in to match the colours on the dress.

Kerrie Bridger from Highgate Florist (www.highgateflorist.co.uk) says, “I'd recommend you start by researching what flowers are in season in the month you're getting married. Your florist can help you with this. Using seasonal flowers won't only mean there have been less resources used to grow them, but you'll also get better quality, as they're grown without force and as nature intended.”
