The Venue - Mr Man’s
Our wedding cake
We got to the restaurant at 1pm and posed for some pictures with our wedding cake first. Then I had to quickly rush outside and throw my bouquet. We had orginally decided to throw the bouquet at Newstead Abbey but as it was raining and time was restricted we decided to throw it at Mr Man’s instead.

The Venue - Newstead Abbey
The journey time to Newstead Abbey took just over 2 hours. We left Worcester at 8.30am and got stuck in abit of traffic but we still made it with plenty of time to spare. Our Ceremony was due to start at 11am but you have to get there at least 30 minutes before to sort out the paper work.
Getting out of a limousine was fun, especially with my long train.
When we got to Newstead Abbey, we were both taken to a room where we sat down in front of the official... Read Full Story
It is tradition to burn incense at the beginning of the Tea Ceremony as a mark of respect to my grandfather.
The Tea Ceremony started with me and Dave kneeling down in front of my grandma. We then offer my grandma a cup of tea from each of us, in return she hands us a lai see (lucky red envelope) and says words to wish us well in our marriage.
In Chinese Wedding Traditions, the tea ceremony would start off with the eldest in the family and continue in desending order.
My Dad giving me a... Read Full Story
The Games
The Guys
My girls put a red ribbon across the front of the door to act like a line that the guys could not cross and it also looked very nice too.

Continuation of my Review of Anantara Resort in the Maldives…………..
If anyone is considering going to the Maldives for their Honeymoon I would say to them “Don’t go in March/April as its the hottest time to go and you will get burnt”
On our 2nd day we sat in the sun for 4 hours and yes we did get burnt. Tropical sun is not to be messed with.

An instant remortgage product allows investors to remortgage a property to 85% of its surveyed market value. This... Read Full Story
