Real Wedding

We both feel that we fell in love gradually and most of all it was just easy.

Ben did the old ‘Barney’s got something in his mouth’ trick, but then knelt down and popped the question as the sun was setting.

It’s always just been easy between us; we have never felt like we have to try to be someone different to impress the other or hold back our weird side. We just understand each other, and that was special to find.

Tim surprised me with a helicopter into Mount Assiniboine in Canada, which is 3,618m in elevation, before dropping a knee 48 hours later.

We realised this was it on our third date – after a day at the beach we hiked to the lighthouse at sunset and knew this was something very special.

Instead, we fell in love from opposite ends of the office – a Romeo & Juliet or West Side Story vibe (minus the warring families and death at the end!).

We got to know each other, and the love grew naturally. I’m not sure there was one recognisable moment when I realised he was the one, more a series of little moments, but it was definitely early on.

A friend used to say that you could feel the electricity passing around u. I always wanted to be around Jules.

We both want to be the best versions of ourselves; this keeps us in a perpetual state of growth, both individually and as a couple, and that feeling is addictive.

We wanted to make the whole weekend feel really grand, for all of those that had never experienced a classic British wedding.

After some cheese and a game of Uno, Sarah handed Jes a box filled with photos of their adventures and beloved cats, as well as a card popping the question!
