Leeann & Russel
Once Upon A Dream. Before we start, we want to make it absolutely clear that although this may well be a fairytale wedding, this story won’t be containing any trite old clichés about fulfilling the dreams you had about weddings when you were growing up; after all, this wedding certainly doesn’t display the sense of style of a five-year-old. But it is a fantasy wedding
Tracy & Danny
Traditional Spanish Love. Nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Mijas Mountains with panoramic views of the Costa del Sol is the beautiful village of Mijas. With its whitewashed houses and maze of narrow cobbled streets dotted with quaint boutiques, beautiful gardens, traditional churches and restaurants that fill the warm air with the heavenly scent of Spanish cuisine, it’s no surprise that Tracy and Danny

Sian & Michael
Sri Lankan Sands. Despite what popular opinion, wedding magazines and marketing would have you believe, not everyone wants to be the centre of attention on their wedding day; apart from anything else, the associated stress has a tendency to overshadow what should be the main focus of the day. The trouble is, with popular opinion being what it is, if you have a wedding that
Caoimhe & Dave
That’s Amore. Halfway along the Amalfi Coast road, between the relatively low-lying towns of Sorrento and Amalfi, sits the clustered town of Positano, its brightly coloured houses stacked one on top of the other, climbing the impossibly steep, lush mountainside.
