We also had lawn games such as giant Jenga. Luke had planned his speech for weeks and ordered a personalised Arsenal shirt with Mrs Gillingham on the back. He planned to recreate a football transfer during his speech, but left the shirt at home and only realised 10 minutes before. The bridesmaids wore pale blue maxi dresses. We enjoyed canapés after the ceremony, which included duck spring rolls with a hoisin dip, vegetable samosas with mango chutney, scampi and chip skewers and crispy coated chicken with tartare mayonnaise. After the wedding breakfast, an incredible magician performed a magic show for guests. Blousey white roses, lisianthus, freesias, Veronica flowers and wild mixed eucalyptus made up my bouquet. The bridesmaids had the same, but with the addition of sweet avalanche roses. 39 REAL WEDDINGS
