Jonathan said: “We really struggled to find a wedding venue we both liked, but when we stepped foot in The Villa we knew it was the one.”
Jonathan said Sarah adored the architectural features of The Villa as it created a sense of nostalgia, which matched their sentiments of Ripley School.
Jonathan said: “Our special day was the culmination of years of planning, though many more years over which Sarah and I had grown in both friendship and love, conquered numerous milestones, and I am now lucky enough to call her my beautiful wife.”
Sarah added: “The day flew by so fast.
“But it was the most amazing day that we got to share with our family and friends.”
