The day wouldn’t have been the same without it. Superstar! Our tables were going to be numbered, so we bought some stickers and applied them to green wine bottles. We then sprayed the necks gold and filled with fairylights. The groomsmen are all members of the band and their best men’s speech featured a top ten hits play-on-words of some of their favourite songs, including Marc Life! The guests were in stitches. “The Grand provided our catering – it was great. They catered for all dietary requirements and there were plenty of options. We received so many compliments from guests about the food.” The cake was perfect. We met with Bunston Bakes six months prior to the wedding to discuss the design and flavours. We ended up going for a four-tier vegan bake with three flavours including Biscoff, lemon and chocolate. 46
