Your Hampshire and Dorset Wedding - November/December 2023 (Issue 101)

The groom wore a rented suit from Moss Bros, followed by a suit from Twisted Tailor. I asked Brandon to not only promise me our vows during the ceremony, but to pinky swear them as well. I wore a Maggie Sottero gown and felt so beautiful! I’ve never been a girly girl or someone who wore dresses, but I was speechless and stunned by my look. I felt like this was a version of myself I never knew existed. New Forest Classic Hire surprised us with a ride through the New Forest in an old, restored Rolls-Royce. My aunt Laine and her dear friend Florrie were the two who made the wedding cake. My grandmother used to make every cake for our family, and my aunty upheld the tradition when she passed. The flowers were handmade, and the top florals were created by my grandmother almost 10 years ago! Brandon says, “I love my wife more than words can explain, and any husband reading this will know what I mean when I say that the first look, no matter where it was, was a life-changing moment.” 41 REAL WEDDINGS
