Your East Anglian Wedding - October/November 2024 (Issue 69)

All things bright Molly and Chris opted for a colourful celebration at Fordham Abbey Images courtesy of Megan Rose Photography AND BEAUTIFUL Molly and Chris met when they were both working at a racecourse. “We had a team-building day, at which point we had never met and were partnered against each other,” says Molly. “Sparks soon started flying, and we found out we are very competitive! A few months after dating, we travelled to New Zealand and Hong Kong in a van with a tent on top of it. Chris soon learnt my love of planning everything and I discovered Chris’ love of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc Wine! Everyone thought it was going to be a disaster trip, but it was the start of our amazing adventure in life together and we can’t wait to take our two boys back.” Chris proposed in Saint Lucia while the couple were on a family holiday. “It was a complete surprise and totally magical,” shares the bride. “We drove around the island looking for waterfalls, and by the third attempt, with Chris becoming more agitated, we decided to settle for a beautiful beach, where he went down on one knee and asked me to marry him. What is so special is that he designed the ring with my uncle, who is a jeweller in Hatton Garden, London. He asked my mum for permission the night before, as she wouldn’t be able to keep a secret!” Read on to see some of Molly’s favourite moments from their big day... REAL WEDDINGS 31
