I don’t know how as I was ready early. Our son gave a reading during the ceremony. Having both of my children involved in our big day was a wonderful feeling. The best man gave a hilarious speech and had us all in stitches. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but his delivery was pure comedy gold. We haven’t booked our honeymoon yet, but we’re excited to plan another adventure. My top tip for any bride or groom-to-be is book a make-up artist, hair stylist and photographer. 46
