Our table plan was the hardest part of the wedding to sort. I ended up keeping the divorced people to opposite ends of the room – and the potty mouths away from kids! We also gave everyone sparklers on their place setting with tags that said, ‘At the end of the day, light our way’. We were originally set to marry in Kos, but Covid ruined our plans two years in a row. We then decided to wed in the UK, looking around The Alnwick Garden and booking with just five months to plan our wedding! I love fresh flowers, but in the height of summer when allergies are rife and hay fever can be a killer, I didn’t want people looking like they were crying all day. I opted for artificial, but the result was beautiful. I have to give Jonny credit for our centre pieces, suggesting filling them with sweets rather than having a separate sweet table. It killed two birds with one stone! We wanted favours people were going to use. Our main meal was a BBQ, so we decided on cheese slices with the caption, ‘Melt with love… or on the burger you’re about to scran’! 24
