The 11-piece band House of Ellington got our party started - the dancefloor was full all night! We had so much fun performing our first dance! The speeches were both amusing and emotional. “Just before everybody made their way inside to be seated for the wedding breakfast, an impromptu rendition of Sweet Caroline was performed as a surprise for Andy – everybody gathered at the top of the steps to sing to us!” - Becky We loved our three-tier wedding cake decorated with fresh flowers. We had a glamorous gold cake topper. We gifted personalised Love Heart sweets as favours. Everybody enjoyed the drinks reception where they were entertained by live music provided by Charles and the Cellist. Our illuminated LOVE sign looked fantastic! REAL WEDDINGS 35
