Sam and Victoria met at work. Victoria tells us, “We realised we had a lot in common, liked the same things and found ourselves eating pizza and drinking wine at the local restaurant shortly after.” During lockdown, on Christmas morning Sam proposed. Of course, Victoria said yes, and wedding planning began! On 28th May 2022, at Ripley Castle, Harrogate, the pair said their vows. Here, Victoria tells us more about their day... SETTING THE SCENE Traditional, beautiful, classic. That was the couple’s order of the day and that’s exactly what they found with Ripley Castle in Harrogate. Victoria reminisces, “The venue was breathtaking. When we walked into the castle grounds there was no turning back and after meeting Rebecca and the team and seeing inside, it was everything we could’ve wished for. The vision of the drink’s reception on the terrace and the various rooms in the castle for different sections of the day – it was just perfect.” With such a fabulous venue, Victoria and Sam were keen to carry the classy theme throughout the day and chose neutral tones and decorated the tables with beautiful white roses and dark foliage. Blossom Tree Cake Company in Harrogate designed the cake – a three-tier white and light champagne icing with ruffled bottom adorned with iced white roses. 33 REAL WEDDINGS
