We hadn’t done it with Becca’s dress on before, and we struggled to move around. Luckily, our dance teachers were on hand to offer advice. We had to delay the performance until we found a way to bunch up her dress. Our wedding package included a DJ. He was fantastic, and we even organised a dance-off between the boys and girls. The ceremony was very emotional, and we all felt my sister’s absence. Our nuptials went by so fast, but it was one of the best days of my life. Instead of a honeymoon, we decided to have a mini-moon. We went to Centre Parcs in Sherwood Forest. Rebecca works at the Whinfell Forest branch, so we managed to get a nice discount. We had a great time, and the Christmas decorations made it even more magical. 52
