- SSarah & Scott09/07/2026We felt so relaxed and happy right through!We felt so relaxed and happy right through!I think what made our wedding so special for us was that it was everything we hoped for and more. We always had the mindset that it was about spending time with each other and with our nearest and dearest and we achieved that in every way possible. From the start to finish we had the best time ever. Staying in the bridal suite the night before and getting ready there the morning of, made everything so chilled and relaxed.I think what made our wedding so special for us was that it was everything we hoped for and more.
