Our cake was a stunning semi-naked creation adorned with delicate flowers that mirrored the floral arrangements throughout the venue. We decided to not have entertainment through the day, but had a DJ and photo booth for the evening reception. We have so many amazing and hilarious photos – even grandparents couldn’t keep away! My gown was called 7492 by Stella York, which was a dress I had seen on online and had loved ever since. I still went with an open mind to my first bridal appointment but as soon as I tried it on, I knew it was the one! I loved the shape and the almond tone. On the big day, I had my hair in a low bun with a finger-tip -length veil to finish off the look. 44
