I made the table plan myself, finding a mirror at a boot sale and spraying it gold. I then learnt how to do calligraphy for the guests’ names. We had a three tiered cake – which I very nearly knocked over by accidentally cutting into the plastic supports hol ding it up! Our centrepieces were made by our amazing flor ist, featuring gold stands to match our colour scheme and flowers that ma tched my bouquet. We also had hanging tea lights, which added to the wint ry feel. I left the choice of flowers up to my florist, simply telling her our colour scheme and theme. I also asked her to include sunflowers at the back of my bouquet, in remembrance of a family member. We walked into the wedding venue and I was blown away. I can’t put into words how perfect it was – it was everything we wanted and more! We wanted favours that people would enjoy and not leave on the table. We’re both huge chocolate and sweet fans, so pla nned favours around this. It was a huge success, especially with the ki ds! 32
