When Scott popped the question, he kept it intimate and romantic. “He got down on one knee at home,” Aukse says. “He organised champagne, roses and our kittens as witnesses!” The newly engaged pair got to work planning a destination wedding in Cyprus, but when the pandemic hit, their plans went out the window. “Everything changed except for our outfits and the flowers,” Aukse says. “We found a lovely venue in York, but when guest numbers were restricted to 15 people, we decided just to hold the ceremony at Dewsbury Town Hall in November. However, even this got cancelled because of the second lockdown!” Finally, the pair found a date that worked, 19 th December, 2020, and managed to hold a beautiful micro-wedding at the Town Hall with an aqua blue colour scheme.
