Your Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Wedding - June/July 2023 (Issue 39)

We felt nervous and excited but most of all we both felt so lucky to be surrounded by our loved ones. The church ceremony felt surreal, I do remember being very nervous waking down the aisle, and from the videos, I can see George was nervous too! George’s young niece and nephew did a reading at the church which was so sweet. We had the amazing JamDuo playing the cello and piano during our church ceremony. My bridesmaids walked down the aisle to the song Can’t Help Falling In Love With You, and I walked down the aisle to Canon in D Major. We both wanted to get married in church so we contacted our parish church which is located a 45-minute drive from The Great Tythe Barn. “In the days leading up to our wedding and on the day itself, my bother helped us so much and we’re so grateful to him. Both my dads’ speech and George’s brothers’ speech were very special, especially George’s brother’s when he said “In the week when everyone lost a queen, George gained one” - that was a memorable moment!” - Zoe It was wonderful to have a bit of time to ourselves in a black 1930s Rolls-Royce after our ceremony so that we could relax and take it all in. The exact car has been used in Peaky Blinders and also Downton Abbey! We had a great driver and enjoyed the journey. 32
