Luke, however, wasn’t so lucky. One of the best men showed a video of him when he was at university, goofing around. Everyone was in fits of laughter. Our photographer, Nick, wanted to take photos in a gorgeous field behind the venue, but it was up a hill, and I had heels on! With the help of Nick, Luke and our amazing videographers, Tom and John, I made it to the top without falling over. The photographs made it worth the trip. Moments before our first dance, our DJ, photographer and the venue’s owners arranged for us to go outside on to the patio and dance as the sun was setting. It’s one of our favourite memories, and we’re so grateful to them for organising it. For our honeymoon, we went to Turkey for four nights. Our hotel was all-inclusive, and we had a lovely time. We had Steve from Pure Wedding DJ’s keep our guests entertained during the evening reception. He did a fantastic job and made sure the dancefloor was full all night. 40
