TITLE Kim had her suspicions that something was going on, but it wasn’t until they returned home that evening that Dan decided to get down one knee in their living room, declared “Ah, bugger it!” and popped the question! The couple set their date for the following year, 17th August 2013. They wanted to plan a relaxed, laid back day with their close friends and family. It was important for them to convey their personalities throughout the wedding day and they filled the venue with personal touches and special little nic nacs. One of the guests has since told Kim that it felt like a Mad Hatter’s Tea Party! Kim & Dan’s top tips for someone planning their wedding day: – Try not to let the wedding planning process overwhelm you – Don’t let others dictate to you regarding the choices you make – Do what makes you happy, there aren’t any rules!
