Kirsty met Oz when she went to work in his tattoo studio. "We're both tattoo artists and after several months of working together it became apparent that we were meant to be together", she told me. "Two years in, Oz popped the question. We spoke about our big day regularly, and we saved and saved like mad. After 12 months we decided to bite the bullet and book a date and venue. We continued to save and had some generous donations from loved ones to help us on our way."

Rustic and Hello Kitty Themed Wedding

Baby always wanted a Hello Kitty themed wedding but her fiancé, Simon, wasn't so keen on the idea! Instead she added a few subtle touches (like her adorable bouquet) to their July wedding, while the rest of the styling suited both their tastes. "I think the idea we were going for was mainly rustic but with a few really cute touches, such as Hello Kitty, a candy buffet and animal balloons for the kids", the groom explained. "Baby wanted just a Hello Kitty theme, but I wasn't too chuffed about it, so it ended up as a mix!"

Nikki and Lee wanted a laid back and informal wedding where they didn't have to spend a fortune to have a great time! "Our budget was £5000 and we stuck to that like glue", Nikki wrote. "We initially wanted to elope and just have a little ceremony somewhere on a mountain, but then, one sunny August afternoon in the pub with our friends, we just looked at each other and agreed it was too much fun not to have everyone we loved there!"

There really is no other way to explain Lucy and Benjamin's wedding. There are Alice in Wonderland weddings... and there are festival weddings... but mash them both together and imagine everyone in attendance has dropped acid and you're maybe halfway there to how bonkers this wedding was! Their wedding photographer Lee Allen described it as the maddest wedding he's ever been involved with... and you know what, I can totally see why!

A Scottish Highland Romance

Blyth and Jeff chose Blair Castle in Scotland at their wedding venue. With the groom loving all things Scotland and the bride actually being Scottish, it was the perfect place for them. "Jeff and I met online", Blyth told me. "We contacted each other at the exact same time and agreed to meet a few weeks later. On our first date we discovered we shared a birthday, as well as some real chemistry. One year later, he popped the question on a deserted beach in Antigua, complete with sunset and horses swimming in the ocean. We decided on a castle venue and searched high and low to find the right one. When I viewed St Brides Kirk, the roofless ruined chapel on the grounds of Blair Castle, I fell for it immediately and knew we had to be married there."
