We’re all about the music, so we had a band on the day, The Chaps. We also had a saxophonist, and bongo drum player followed by a DJ set by The Chaps followed by a friend, Dawsy. My dad also played some vinyl. Helen’s top tip! Don’t sweat the small stuff, accept help graciously. Try not to get too stressed and enjoy the build-up. The day went really quickly. We both remember feeling nervous beforehand which went away very quickly once we were exchanging our vows.

So many family and friends helped in different ways as we did so much ourselves, from helping to make things, setting up, to financial help, organising, and moral support. We’re very lucky. Helen’s cousin was her ‘bridesman’ and wore this fabulous sunflower print bow tie! 40
