We ordered Christmas crackers for favours, filling them with sweets before adding snowflakes and name tags to complement o ur winter theme. Our seating plan said, ‘Where in the world am I sitting?’, with tables named after places we’ve visited. Of course, the to p table had to be ‘Budapest’ – as it’s where we got engaged! I felt calm on the day, but the night before had a g ood cry with my family. I love how they surprised me by decking out the hotel roo m with balloons, as well as organising personalised robes for us all. My talented friend made our wedding cake; three tiers of lemon, chocolate and Victoria sponge. It was decorated with snowflakes and teal and white flowers, as well as a light-up cake topper that read ‘Mr & Mrs Stam’. Winter weddings are the way forward for anyone getting married! It takes all the weather stresses away, plus the summer season is more expensive. The venue was decorated for Christmas, too, saving us even more money! Greenwoods Hotel & Spa is a stunning place to say, ‘I do’. My bridesmaids, mum, aunties and I stayed there the night before and enjoyed a relaxing spa day, which was well needed. 32
