As Mark L walked up the aisle, he realised that everything after that moment was superficial. Saying our vows was what mattered; it was so emotional and we bonded on such a spiritual level. We arranged a photo booth for the evening, with our guests sticking a copy of their photos in a scrapbook for us. We loved reading the messages and looking at the pictures after the wedding. In the evening professional drag queen Dixie Tucker performed a song and got our friends and family involved. It went down a storm, with her also playing party tunes until late. Our wedding naked-style cake was amazing! We opted for different flavours for each of the tiers, choosing Victoria sponge, lemon drizzle and caramel. We also had a personalised cake knife. We left what to wear until six weeks before the wedding, trying on several blue suits that didn’t feel right. Slaters Newcastle suggested grey, complementing with navy accessories, and we loved the result. It was important our groomsmaids were happy with their outfits, letting them choose their own dresses in their preferred style. We also hired hair and make-up artists so they looked extra-sensational. 27 REAL WEDDINGS
