Your South Wales Wedding - March/april 2021 (Issue 78)

James wore a Dyfed Menswear navy tweed suit with a grey waistcoat, burnt orange tie and pocket square. I fell in love with a Justin Alexander white mermaid dress with a lace top from Perfection Bridal Cardiff. My bridesmaids chose beautiful grey full-length gowns from Mix Bridal. We had originally planned to go to Japan for our honeymoon but due to the pandemic, we had to cancel. Instead, we settled for a food tour of Wales. We spent the first night at The Whitebrook Restaurant With Rooms followed by a two-night stay in Betws-y-Coed and finished with a night stay at Ynyshir. Due to COVID-19 restrictions, we weren’t allowed a disco but replaced it with socially distanced party games including badminton, limbo and inflatable bowling. These went down a storm with our guests. We were also meant to have a musician play, but due to restrictions, this wasn’t allowed, so he recorded a message and song for us to play at the wedding instead. REAL WEDDINGS 25 
