The idea of splitting a wedding over two days—a smaller, intimate ceremony on the first day, followed by a larger, more laid-back reception on another day—gained popularity during the pandemic and remains a popular choice for post-COVID couples. This approach reduces the pressure of formality and having "all eyes on you" during the vows, making it feel more like a personal moment rather than a performance. It also allows for a more relaxed celebration with everyone else afterward. This is exactly what Sioned and James chose to do when they married this summer.

Nadia's family has the same theme for almost every event and party they throw - neon, disco, jungle.
