Amber and Ricky Spriggs tied the knot at Greenwoods Hotel and Spa Images courtesy of S and E Photography Amber and Ricky met at school. Ricky was in the year above and very popular and younger Amber – a selfconfessed geek(!) – their paths never crossed. Until one night... as Amber explains, “I wangled an invite to Ricky’s 18th birthday party. He stumbled up to me and said, ‘I have no idea who you are, but I can’t stop looking at you’. I never ever forgot that sentence. Fast forward eight years, I downloaded Hinge, and who was one of the first people to pop up? Ricky! In my gut I just knew that this was it and a month after matching, Ricky asked me to be his girlfriend.” Ricky proposed in Cancun. As they approach the restaurant Amber had favourited online, the waitress blindfolded her. Amber tells us, “I was shocked. My initial thought was that he’d just decorated the table nicely as a surprise. We were walking for a while, then turned onto the beach. We came to a stop and Ricky took the blindfold off. In front of me were the most gigantic lit up letters saying Marry me? I remember Ricky saying some lovely words - then after a lot of gasping, disbelief and laughter I of course said yes. It was truly amazing.” The couple said their I dos at Greenwoods Hotel and Spa on 6th April, 2023. Here, the happy couple share some of their favourite moments... I always KNEW 31 REAL WEDDINGS
