We had our first date in Corbridge back in 2012, sitting for a couple of hours in a coffee shop chatting away. We then went for lunch in a local pub and spent the afternoon getting to know each other more. To be totally honest, the minute I saw him I was smitten!” Andrew proposed to Sarah on Christmas Day, 2018. “Andrew placed a large box under the tree four weeks earlier, and when I opened it on Christmas morning there was a smaller box, followed by an even smaller one,” continues the bride. “When I eventually opened the smallest box and saw an engagement ring it was a huge but amazing surprise! I was actually hoping it would be a pair of binoculars, as I love watching the birds! We’d even had a conversation the week before, where Andrew had said he didn’t want to get married!” The couple set the date of 16th June, 2022, choosing Langley Castle as their venue.
