TOP TIP! I know everyone says it but this is your day, do what you want and what makes you happy even if it’s not what anyone else would do. Our evening band, Rock Out, started as soon as we had finished our first dance and played hit after hit of rock covers, taking requests through the night. Post ceremony cocktails and sliders was accompanied by an acoustic band, Sunbird Duo, who played three sets.

The design was inspired by band tour t shirts, on the front a skull bride & groom whilst on the back it listed the date and location of our memorable moments - our very own Love Tour! They were a huge hit and lots of people ended up wearing them in the evening. The bridesmaids all decided to wear a different bright colour, some wearing long dresses some wearing short. We were also very nervous for the first dance. After practising in the kitchen to multiple song options, we found our perfect track, The Big Moon cover of Praise You. 34
