Each table was named after a place we’d visited together. Our cake from a local bakery, was orange drizzle flavour. It was the first cake Jess ate after she gave birth to Betsy and I got the same one for her 30th birthday. We chose food that suited us, and it was all amazing. Everyone commented on how good it was, both the wedding breakfast and evening options. We purchased our place names from MacMillan and they fitted the theme perfectly. They each had a small dragonfly pin attached. The dragonfly is important to Jess as it reminds her of her dad. Our favours were two small bags of our favourite sweets – cola bottles and fizzy watermelons. We decided on several subtle touches that reflected us as a couple. We saved wine bottles over the previous months and placed them on a table asking guests to leave us messages in them to be opened on our anniversary. We had two live singers who were excellent. We’d seen them perform previously at other family celebrations, so knew we were in for a treat. 39 REAL WEDDINGS
