We took my parents with us, which meant we could have a few nights to ourselves as we had our little girl Zara with us too. I planned it mainly, and we all had a great time! We went on some fabulous trips to a natural adventure park, we swam with turtles and went on a boat trip. Seeing Zara so happy and having fun is so rewarding for us both. My mum made the cake, which was important and special to us both. It was a Christmas cake, presented on clear stands filled with fairylights. We tried to mix up the seating so that people could sit with somebody different, which encouraged everyone to socialise more! One of my bridesmaids choreographed the surprise dance, which was amazing and something I will never forget! Our favours were our favourite drinks, Baileys and Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Fire! We presented them in little cork bottles. The bridesmaids wore sequin maxi dresses. Our centrepieces were white and green flowers with sprigs of gold. We had a mixture of ring-type centrepieces with candles in the middle and tall acrylic stands with flowers on top. 48
