Your Gloucestershire and Wiltshire Wedding- August/September 2020 (Issue 22)

I wore an ivory satin ballgown featuring button detail down the back teamed with a lace jacket. I had a full-length veil decorated with dropped pearls, a simple pearl tiara and matching earrings because my birthstone is pearl. I also wore some ivory lace bridal boots. We displayed bowls of Swizzels Love Hearts, a wedding postbox and signage encouraging our guests to upload their photographs of our wedding on Instagram. We decided on pure white and delicate green freesias and hydrangeas as our big-day flowers. Our favours were white and mint-flavoured Lindt chocolates which are our favourites that happened to be green and gold matching our colour theme. We packaged them in cute white boxes tied with delicate green and gold ribbon and gave each child a gold balloon. We loved the stylish white Rolls-Royce Phantom that transported us to our wedding. Our simple white-iced cake featured intricate lace detail to match my wedding dress. REAL WEDDINGS 41 
