I’m 39 and Paul is 36.

Where, when and how did he (or you!) propose?

After 3 months. It was at home. Not bad seeing as we had both decided we wouldn’t get married!

Did you have hen and stag celebrations?

I had an all day do in Bolton. We went to various pubs and generally do what hens do! Paul didn’t have a stag do.

Did your groom help you with the wedding planning?

As we got married in the Dominican most of the organising was done for us. The paperwork was a bit of a nightmare though!

Tell us about your outfit, and where you bought it.

I wore a pale ice blue and silver 2-piece dress, bought from E-bay.

Did you have a civil or religious ceremony?

Civil.

Where did you hold your ceremony?
