It was amazing; we relaxed and drank plenty of cocktails. We are going on a safari next summer and to Bora Bora in 2025. Our top tip for any couple about to get married is to relax and take it all in. Make sure you take time with your partner throughout the day to catch up and spend time dancing, drinking, smiling, and laughing together. We felt excited on the morning of the wedding. It was wonderful watching our friends and family come together to celebrate our day. Everyone made such an effort to be with us and travelled from near and far. We hired Douglas Elom to sing during the reception and wedding breakfast. Everyone loved him; he was a fantastic guy, not just for his singing but for his personality too. Your Wedding Disco provided us with a DJ, and the dancefloor was packed the entire night, despite it being a very humid day. We chose a range of songs and genres, and even our grandparents danced the night away. Everyone was sad when the last song was played! 48
