💍 Wedding Throwback 💍

We can't believe it has been a whole 2 years since this incredible SURPRISE wedding we hosted here at The Old Library! 🤯

Simon & Matt got legally married in secret earlier on in the day and then surprised their guests with a drag queen celebrant ceremony - by the wonderful Proud Fox Ceremonies by Martin Fox-Roberts ❤🏳️‍🌈

They then had a fun filled evening with live music, drag bingo, face painting and lots of dancing! 🕺💃

A massive Happy 2nd Anniversary to you both from the whole team! 🥂

Thank you to Nick Brightman Photography for the awesome photos 📸
