Closing out my recap of some of 2018’s weddings, we come to Hayley and James’ wedding. A relatively rare (for me at least) church wedding at All Saints Church in Southbourne was followed by reception at the Carlton Hotel on Bournemouth’s East Cliff.

Hayley and James infused their wedding with details, both large and small, which had personal meaning to them as a family, from Hayley using windmills instead of a more traditional bouquet, which had special personal meaning all the way through to the superhero theme of the groom and groomsmen’s outfits and the table decorations, and closing things off with a special group dance by their son’s dance group. You could really tell that they had put their all into this wedding.

On the day it was clear to see how Hayley and James’s wedding meant so much to them and really was them cementing themselves as a family. It’s easy to wish them the happiest of marriages.
