MAKING MEMORIES While becoming husband and wife was the most memorable part of Louise and Dewar’s wedding, there were a few other moments they’ll never forget. “Hiring childcare to look after the kids was a great idea, as it took every element of stress relating to children out of the equation,” says Louise. “Weddings aren’t exactly fun for little ones, with the team we used looking after the kids for over five hours, with bags of toys, games and crafts for them to enjoy. It was nice for the parents not to have to worry about where the children were, and I’d recommend the company to anyone planning on inviting kids to their big day.” There were also a fair few laughs at the couple’s wedding which Louise and Dewar are sure to remember. “At one point in the evening, Dewar and I thought it would be a good idea to dance on the table!” laughs the bride. “We ended up nearly tipping it over, and there was nearly a big bride and groom pile-up on the floor! My brother-inlaw also fell asleep with my nieces after a few too many beers, on a makeshift bed made from chairs and a random duvet. I think this was the most photographed moment of the day! It ended up with him being sick in a rose bush, which is surely the sign of a good wedding!” ROLL CREDITS Photography, Joseph Kinerman Photography www.instagram.com/josephkinerman | Venue, Creeksea Place www.creekseaplace.co.uk | Louise’s dress and accessories, Wed2B www.wed2b.com | Dress alterations, The Dressmaker https://thedressmakeressex.com | Bridesmaids’ dresses, ASOS www.asos.com | Suits, Moss Bros www.moss.co.uk | Hair, Hair By Gem www.instagram.com/hair.by.gem | Make-up artist, Clair Bingham Beauty www.instagram.com/cbbeautex/ | Fresh flowers, Blooming Daisys www.instagram.com/bloomings_daisys_ | Artificial flowers, Petal & Stem Faux Flowers, www.instagram.com/petalandstemfauxflowers/ | Cake, Coco Flamingo Cakes www.instagram.com/cocoflamingocakes Stationery and welcome sign, Louise McKinlay Designs www.instagram.com/louisemckinlaydesigns | DJ, Crums www.instagram.com/crums Childcare, Ultimate Event Childcare www.instagram.com/ultimateeventchildcare | Catering, Limeberry Catering www.limeberrycatering.co.uk LOUISE’S TOP TIP “Don’t make things more difficult than they need to be and don’t worry about things going wrong on the day – the only people who’ll know are you!” 40
