They followed it with a breakfast of champions in Chambers restaurant then on to the arcades at Southsea Seafront in the rain.

Jade and Nick's wedding was a riot of gorgeous colour and elements that really reflected them as a couple, at the ultra-cool Houdini Estate in Los Angeles - yup, that's the old estate belonging to Harry Houdini himself! Jade is a big fan of bright colours, and Nick is a robotics engineer, so when planning the wedding, they thought they'd combine the more whimsical county fair vibe with the more ye olde worlde futuristic side, and came up with a vintage world's fair look, which worked PERFECTLY.
