Have you ever had any really weird requests from the nearly-weds?
I haven’t really had weird requests as such from couples planning their wedding day, although we’ve had the odd football related request! Many years ago, a groom asked for a TV to be situated in one of the function rooms so he could watch England play in the World Cup! Most of the guests were football mad so they had a huge dilemma when they realised the football clashed with the wedding. Luckily, the bride didn’t mind, too much!
What has been the most romantic thing you’ve seen at a wedding?
Because of the occasion, a wedding is always a romantic day anyway. The romance is always shown when the Groom makes his speech. They can be so heartfelt and quite often, I’ll be in tears too!
What is your top tip for someone planning their wedding?
My top tip for someone planning their wedding would be to delegate tasks to friends and family, it’s the easiest way to keep your bridal party happy and involved with the plans! When you get engaged, all of a sudden everyone wants to help and although it’s always a goodwill gesture, sometimes it can get too much. By delegating tasks to family members, it gives them an area to focus on too, leaving you to continue with your plans!
