Our wedding story is pretty simple and I would say out of the norm compared to other brides! My now husband (Jason)  and I were never engaged, we just decided one day to get married and skip all the traditional steps usually taken before the big day - we were together for nearly 5 years with two dogs. We kept the wedding extremely intimate (only 40 people) and we had the most magical day ever. It was beautiful being able to spend the day with our closest friends and family. 

The lead up to the wedding was stressful as I organised everything myself (wedding, hens, bridal shower etc) and I DIY’d the whole reception and most wedding items but it was all worth it in the end! Bella made the dress choosing experience super comfortable and fun - I loved every moment of it and my dress was just everything I have ever dreamed of and more!
