He’s an acoustic singer and guitarist – he played pre-ceremony, ceremony, the reception session as well as our first dance – You’ve got the Love by the Florence and Machine. I loved the autumnal mix match look from the start of my Instagram trawl of wedding looks. I had three adult bridesmaids – one wearing cream, one in chianti red and one in rust orange. Our two daughters wore matching flower girl dresses. I’m very chatty and confident talking in front of people and had been winding Matt up that I wanted to say something during the speeches, when really Lauren had been practicing a lovely reading, We Want to be your Penguin, at school. She read it perfectly to Matt – it was our way of saying we would always be together as a family. Matt loved it! MICHELLE’S TOP TIP! It will all come together as you hope and plan, so try to enjoy the process and most definitely enjoy the day – take a moment just you and your partner to look around and smile at having those you care for with you. During the wedding reception, we booked Mark Waddington, an upclose magician. Mark moved around all the long banqueting tables as we enjoyed our wedding breakfast. 42
