The lovely Bonnie came to us back in November 2022 in the search for her ‘Yes to the dress’ moment. And honestly, we had such a fun appointment, full of so much laughter. Throughout our whole time working with Bonnie, we just loved having a catch-up with her and her mum. So we were so pleased when she agreed to be our bride of the month and share with us all the details of her gorgeous winter wedding.
How did your partner propose?
Funny story that… he didn’t! We both agreed that we’d like to get married, so we went and chose my engagement ring as a team. No regrets! It meant I got to choose the ring I wanted!
We love that!! Married is all about doing life together, so why not start as you mean to go on. So lets talk wedding...
When and Where did you get married?
We got married in December (2023) at The Secret Garden in Kent. It was stunning, and the venue was everything we could have dreamed of! It all ran like clockwork, the staff were amazing, and the main thing was… it didn’t rain! Christmas was always on my radar for marriage as it is my favourite month of the year and my husband didn’t really kick up a fuss about it, so we agreed on a lovely winter wedding.
What colour/ theme did you go for?
My husband and I are quite plain and like neutral vibes, so that is what we went for. White and forest green, perfect for winter! Our table names were named after flowers as we are very fond of our garden and into flowers!
Perfect winter vibes. What is one bit of advice for couples planning a wedding?
Organise early and stay calm! We had no stress with organising our wedding. From organising the venue, to finding our dress/suit and booking different suppliers, we were so relaxed throughout because we ticked things off early and kept track of everything as we went!
Honestly, we could not agree more... More time, less stress! Now the fun bit, Shopping for your dress...
Tell us about it?!
I honestly didn’t think wedding dress shopping could be so easy. Megan and Hannah were my first appointment, after some online research, which resulted in me finding my dress, shoes and something for my hair. They made the process super easy and were so relaxed. They supported everything I wanted to do and even though I knew which dress I wanted from the get go (after seeing it online) they suggested I try on a range of dresses to make sure I knew for sure! The boutique is stunning and hold a huge range of beautiful dresses with all different prices. I would highly recommend shopping at Vickis!
It means so much to us that we can be our brides safe space!
Tell us what was the highlight from your Big Day?
Our highlight… gosh there were too many! I think we both enjoyed seeing each other at the altar the most, though. What a magical moment when you both feel a million dollars!
That is so sweet, we love love! And lastly, your favourite photo from your big day - professional or moment captured by a guest.
Thank you so much for sharing with us, Bonnie. Honestly, we love having you as part of our Vicki's family and hope you love every moment of married life.
