We were so blessed to be surrounded by our loved ones, especially a few who we thought may not make it due to illness. My maid-of-honour, Gemma, and I have shared so much together and to have her by my side every step of the way was so special. She was my right-hand women and covered everything from transporting all the items to the venue, making sure my hair was fixed to rescuing the Prosecco that was being moved away by the venue.” “Simon did a speech that he made up off the cuff which was special,” explains Gill. “My godfather also managed to photobomb us through one of the windows, which was captured perfectly and rather hilariously by our photographer.” HONEYMOON “As we have the girls we weren’t able to go on a honeymoon,” reveals Gill. “Instead, we had a mini-moon at The Welcombe Hotel as we wanted to stay local. We hired the top suite in the hotel which lived up to our expectations. We had some congratulatory truffles on arrival and enjoyed 48 hours there, relaxing, recapping the day and eating delicious food.” 36
