Your Herts and Beds Wedding - April/May 2024 (Issue 103)

A cat named Jeff lived near the venue and kept grate crashing our pictures and jumping on my veil. One of the best men had to hold him while we had our pictures together.

Leading up to the day, the biggest concern was how he would be with his sleep, food and worrying about him being upset. Having Janice there was amazing; she was helpful, friendly, and good with Jacob. We recommend this service to anyone. We were nervous about our first dance, but it was really fun! We loved hearing everyone sing along to Elton John’s Are You Ready for Love? We were conscious to be present on the day to take moments in. The day went perfectly and was so full of love. It exceeded our expectations of how much we thought we would enjoy it. The speeches were one of the best parts of the day; the perfect mix of humour and love was so special. The atmosphere in the room during was amazing! My mum, sister and maid-of-honour all gave a speech in place of the father-of-the-bride, which was emotional. Three of the best men spent loads of time practising to get it right between them, which showed. Our friends organised a magician as a surprise to keep guests entertained, which was definitely a hit. Some of the photos of guests’ enthralled faces support this! 37 REAL WEDDINGS
