The Greatest Show

Susie and Baz got married on 11^th May 2019
at Wookey Hole in Somerset

How did you meet?
We both used to work for Hanson Brick, I was then an Events Manager and Baz was a Works Manager. I had to organise an event at his works in Dover, Kent, and we met then.

How did the proposal happen?
This was truly special, so Baz had organised for our children to go to their Aunties in Somerset and put together with my Niece and Nephew a show of “this is your life”. All 4 children acted me out from very young, through my teenage years and then to the present day. At that point Baz got called up and then he called me up and got on one knee…. Very emotional he managed to get few words out !

What did the bride wear?
A very boobie wedding dress.

What did the rest of the Bridal party wear?
Charcoal grey dresses for the bridesmaids and Grey 3 piece suits for the groomsmen.

What was your theme?

We themed it around The Greatest Showman, in other words a circus theme which was such fun.

Describe your cake
We didn’t have a traditional cake as such, we had cupcakes instead.

Something Blue?
A garter.

What were the highlights?

Wow, so many, the Cave where the actual wedding took place, was so tranquil,then there was the Witch, the Little Man, the Drag Queen, the Circus, the Tattooist, the Band, just everything – I think one of my favourite moments was when we walked in the wedding breakfast room to “This is me” playing full blast and all the entertainers were dancing and doing their thing, looking around the room full of all the people we love dancing and singing and thinking ‘what the hell is going on, are we really at a wedding?’

Your best buy?
Not sure I have one, I actually arranged most of it myself and made everything I could as we were so far away from the venue and you only hire the room so I filled it with all the bits I wanted.
