Your South Wales Wedding - November/December 2020 (Issue 76)

A DAY TO remember Teenage sweethearts, Katie and Tim, celebrated their wedding at the grand Stradey Park Hotel & Spa Images courtesy of Oliver J Photography K atie and Tim met at their local nightclub when they were teenagers. “We were introduced by a mutual friend but weren’t looking for anything serious at the time,” says Katie. “The next day Tim took me on our first date to the beach, and within two weeks we were ’official’.
