Your South Wales Wedding - November/December 2019 (Issue 70)

Joe and the groomsmen wore the same grey check suit from Dyfed Menswear. To make Joe stand out, he opted for a pink rose, while his friends wore white versions. The pageboys wore waistcoats and a bow tie, and their flowers were made from Marvel Comics. I felt surprisingly calm and relaxed while getting ready. I remember having an overwhelming feeling of happiness and my cheeks hurt the next day from smiling so much. Our good friends, Tor and Jack, bought us personalised superhero capes as a wedding present that we put on during our wedding photos. The bridesmaids chose soft pink gowns from Little Mistress, and the flowergirls had ivory dresses from Debenhams. Both styles complemented each other and suited all the girls. I found it difficult finding the perfect dress. I went to 12 different shops and tried on more than 130 designs before I finally found the one at the Cardiff Bridal Centre. I chose a Morilee gown called Linda . The amazing shop assistant chose it for me, and I fell in love with it right away. We had a photo booth in the evening, which was a great hit with our guests. The photos are hilarious, and we placed a copy of each in our guest book. REAL WEDDINGS 55 
