REAL WEDDINGS 33  aircraft motif and the middle tier had a subtle world map design; the detail was amazing.” They finished it off with a cheeky cake topper. “It was Nick’s idea to have him sitting in a business-class seat with me serving him champagne,” Lindsay laughs. LOOKING THE PART The bride looked stunning in the Yvette gown by Sophia Tolli. “As soon as I put it on I knew it was the one ,” she says. “The detail on the back was amazing and I loved the length. I felt so beautiful.” Lindsay styled it with a beaded veil, a hairpiece and some aircraft hair slides that she had made. As with many brides, sourcing bridesmaids dresses was a struggle. “I couldn’t find the colour I wanted,” Lindsay tells us. “When I came across Le Closet De Chanel I was so happy. The multi-way dresses are made to order and great quality. My three best girls looked great.” The men all looked dashing in navy three-piece suits with sky blue accessories and buttonholes to coordinate with the bridesmaids. TIME TO CELEBRATE The pair were keen to not overdo the day. “Plenty of food and drink is entertainment enough for most people!” Lindsay says. “The venue’s recommended DJ was great and got the party going in the evening.” Some close friends of the couple have a business renting out a cookie stand. “It went down a treat and was really novel,” Lindsay says. “Our loved ones also got to spend time taking in the stunning views that the setting offers.” MEMORABLE MOMENTS The bride is a self-confessed worrier, but in the morning she was so excited. “After 11 years together, it just felt right,” she says. “Walking down the aisle and laying eyes on Nick for the first time was a moment that really stood out. Seeing his face when he saw me was the best.” Nick loved seeing their vision of the day come to life, and getting to share that with their nearest and dearest. Nick’s top tip: Once all the planning is done, it’s time to relax. You have no influence over how the day goes at that point – so stop worrying and just enjoy it!
