You're Golden

A Timeless Wedding

Kate and Paul met online. "His good looks are what fi rst attracted me," says Kate. "Once I got to know him, I was drawn to his caring and funny personality." Paul proposed in the couple's living room. "It was Valentine's Day," shares the bride. "We went out for a meal and he asked his mum to f i ll our living room with candles.

Monochrome Magic

Laura and Phil lived in the same apartment block when they first met. "I moved in 2013 and kept noticing Phil," says Laura. "I lived in the top-floor apartment, so I had a view of the whole street and I kept seeing him. I decided one day, after a night out with my friend, to put a note on his car. The note read, 'I think you're lovely; here is my number.' The next day, he texted me and we decided to meet up. He was in the army at the time and had to go away for three months, so we had little to no contact. Once he got back, we went on our first date to watch a Manchester United vs. Stoke City match, and the rest is history."

The Beauty Of The Lakes

Rebecca and Kyle met over 10 years ago. "Kyle first spotted me on New Year's Eve, but we never spoke," says Rebecca. "A few weeks later, on my birthday, Kyle came up to speak to me and have a dance and the rest is history."
