How we met Through friends/work
The proposal Got home after work, (midnightish) candles, cheap wine, and an expensive engagement ring?
Summary of the big day Good!!
Funniest Moment A girl friend crying, claiming it was hay fever
Worst Moment Realising I couldn't sit in my wedding dress… all good in the end
Money Saving Ideas Look around seriously for a venue; don't say the word wedding when getting quotes.
Bride's/Groom's advice Elope?? No really… just make a decision, don't waffle too much.
What we would do differently Buy a dress… too much as well as everything else, AND remember to laugh, it is only one day of the rest of your life!
