Your North East Wedding - July/August 2023 (Issue 57)

Food was always going to be a big part of our day, choosing Acropolis after being regular customers of theirs. It was exactly what we wanted; relaxed, informal and delicious! We also had the band Midnight Train perform for the evening. They got everyone up on their feet, including one of our caterers, who also happens to be a professional Greek dancer! Make sure you steal each other away for a bit, leaving your guests to go and hide! We took a drink and plate of appetisers and sat with each other for 10 minutes with no one else around.
