Your South Wales Wedding - November/December 2024 (Issue 100)

Our cake was from Marks and Spencer and my maid-of-honour made Welsh cakes to go alongside it. Champagne Wedding Cars supplied us with a traditional wedding car called Millie. The Celtic Lodge provided us with a barbecue during the afternoon where all our nearest and dearest could sit outside in the sun. In the evening, we had a large buffet as we didn’t want a sit-down meal. We decided not to have a table plan so that our friends and family could sit where they wanted and mingle with each other. We chose The Celtic Lodge for our reception. To decorate the space, we had seven large tables that each sat 10 people. The chairs were decorated with navy linen chair sashes to match the bridesmaids’ dresses, and we placed large white blossom trees on each table. St Catwg’s Church is in the village where I grew up and many of my family members have been married, christened or even buried at the church, so it meant a lot to me to get married there. 40
